3-Bay Metal Building

Posted on January 15, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Questions, Steel Structures

If you have multiple vehicles at your house, it may be a little challenging to get every single one protected from the weather, especially if the only garage you have is the one attached to your house. Moving the other cars just to get one out can be quite annoying, too, especially if you’re in a hurry or the weather isn’t cooperating.

 

This scenario happens pretty often. That’s why American Steel Carports encourages you to acquire a 3-bay metal garage for your vehicles. The big advantage of having your garage doors on the side of the building, instead of the end, is that expanding in length is not as expensive as expanding in width. End walls are pricier due to the material needed. With your garage doors on the side, your cars will be just as secure, and at a lower cost.

 

Take a look at this 26’W x 36’L x 12’H 3-bay metal building as an example:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides & Ends

• 2 – Windows

• 36×80 Walk-In Door

• 3 – 10×10 Roll-Up Doors (on the side)

*Disclaimer: interior designs may vary by state or region. Buildings may require additional trusses to meet local codes. Prices are subject to change at any time without notice. Please contact our sales department for our latest prices.

 

Remember that we can always adjust the length, width, and height according to your needs. Door sizes can always be changed. The pictures are just examples of designs and styles that our customers opt for according to their specifications and tastes.

 

You can always come up with your own design as well. If you have a project in mind, or if you’re looking for a more customized building, give us a call! Let one of our sales representatives assist you. Keep in mind that we can always provide a free sketch for visual purposes until we get to your desired design. Don’t forget to ask for our financing options!

61′ Long!

Posted on January 8, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

And we’re back with the new year!

 

We hope everyone had a wonderful time during the holidays. Now it’s time for a fresh start and more new buildings!

 

What if we start this year with a long building? It’s a good idea to have your building ready for the hot summer and the winter beyond. You never know what will happen in the inclement weather. Remember, our buildings are made according to your needs: if 61 feet is too long for you or isn’t allowed by your city, we can always change the length. It’s the same with the other options and features, such as doors, windows, and insulation.

 

Take a look at this building, with dimensions of 24′W × 61′L × 10′H:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides & Ends

• 2 – 10×8 Roll-Up Doors (front end)

• 4 – Windows (on the side)

• 36×80 Walk-In Door (on the side)

• Insulated Roof

• Concrete Anchors

 

 

It has an insulated roof because it’s vertical, four windows for more illumination, and of course two 10 × 8 roll-up doors, so you park your vehicles or store your belongings inside.

 

There are plenty of ways to get your building started. Let one of our sales representatives help you find the right building. And remember, we offer 12 colors you can choose from at no extra cost. Need visual representation? Our team can provide you with a sketch to give you a clear view of your metal building. Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer!

Mini Storage Installed in New Mexico

Posted on December 12, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

It’s mini storage time!

 

In need of a metal storage building? Are you worried about the size? American Steel Carports is here for you to build that storage building according to your needs.

 

If the size of a storage building is one of your concerns, then it’s more likely that a mini-storage will work for you. Our mini storages tend to be more affordable than a regular enclosed building, with the same freedom of adding certain features; not to mention that all our mini storages come with a ¾” pressure treated wood floor.

 

Take this 12’W x 16’L x 7’H mini storage in 12-G installed in Tijeras, New Mexico as an example:

 

 

Most of our mini storages come with a 6’x6′ roll-up door or a walk-in door depending on the size of the mini-storage. This particular one does have a 6’x6′ roll-up door, it also has a vertical roof, and mobile home anchors.

 

Whether you’re wanting something a little shorter or less wide, our experts will help you build the perfect mini-storage for you.

 

Want to see more of our designs? Click here for more information or give us a call to speak with one of our representatives. Remember, we DO NOT provide any concrete work and the surface must be level in order to install your metal building.

Add Value to Your Property with this Workshop!

Posted on November 20, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

Need a new addition on your property? Want a better and bigger workshop?

 

Have you ever thought about having your own “man cave”? Or perhaps a workshop to work on your vehicles? If your answer to both questions is yes, it’s likely that your main concern about getting a workshop is the price. Metal buildings can range in price depending on the size and number of features added to the unit. Remember that we’re working to meet your expectations. If you’re on a budget, our experts will work with you until we design your perfect building.

 

So, what if you don’t have a concrete slab? Is your building going to be gone with the wind?

 

Our buildings don’t necessarily have to be installed on concrete slabs. Leveled surfaces like asphalt and regular ground are typically flat enough to install metal buildings. Additionally, our company offers mobile home and asphalt anchors to secure your metal building, so if you want to get our 90-mph wind warranty, we can still give it to you as long as your purchase all of the necessary anchors. However, keep in mind that any building that exceeds 30’ in width will be required to have a concrete slab.

 

Take a look at this beautiful metal workshop:

 

• 30’W x 51’L x 12’H

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides & Ends

• 12×12 Roll-Up Door (front end)

• 8×7 Roll-Up Door (front end)

• 2 – Windows (one on each side)

• 36×72 Walk-In Door (on the side)

• Additional Trussing

• Additional Hat Channels

• Mobile Home Anchors

 

 

Disclaimer: Interior designs may vary by state or region. This metal workshop was installed in Colorado. Therefore, it was necessary to add extra trusses in order to meet local codes.

 

We’re here to help if you’re interested in the same style as the building described above, but if you want to change its dimensions, please give us a call. Let one of our experts help you customize the building of your dreams.

Metal Storage Building

Posted on November 13, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

Looking for an affordable, strong, and well-built storage room? If the answer is yes, then American Steel Carports is your choice!

 

Our company has over 15 years of experience specializing in the carport industry. In other words, we know how to deliver a great experience when it comes to metal buildings. Whether you’re looking for a barn, a storage room, a mini-storage unit, or even a big workshop, American Steel Carports will be there to make sure that all of your needs and expectations are satisfied.

 

Remember that the buildings we post are just live examples of our customers’ creations and ideas. The dimensions and features such as doors, windows, colors, etc. can always be changed according to your needs and specifications. Another important fact to keep in mind is that concrete pads are always optional according to the type of building. If a building exceeds 30 feet in width, then it’s necessary to have a concrete pad, but anything below that can be installed on the ground or asphalt.

 

Take this 20’W x 21’L x 8’H storage building as an example:

 

 

This metal storage building is rocking our pewter gray color. It also has a 10’ x 8’ roll-up door and a 36” x 72” walk-in door on the side, and it comes with our 90-mph wind warranty when all of the required concrete anchors are purchased.

 

We have a variety of buildings and designs for you to choose from. Have additional questions? Give us a call! Let one of our sales representatives assist you with any questions you may have. Want to see more buildings? Click here for additional pictures and ideas.

Metal Garage in New Mexico

Posted on November 6, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Product Reviews, Steel Structures

Allow your metal building to withstand all seasons with no problem at all!

 

When it comes to protection for your vehicle, there are many factors to consider before purchasing a metal garage. Depending on where you live, some factors will include snow loads, heavy rain, strong winds, etc. Lucky for you, American Steel Carports builds nothing but engineer-certified metal buildings.

 

Our A-frame vertical roof is the strongest of all. This option is engineered to allow snow, dirt, and rain to slide off without any difficulty. The ribs on the panels run from the peak of the roof toward the eaves. Hat channels are also added to further support the vertically running metal sheets. Remember that this roof style comes with a 6” overhang around the carport/garage, blocking a high percentage of precipitation from entering the unit.

 

Take a look at this 18’W x 26’L x 9’H in 14-Gauge metal building installed in Gallup, NM:

 

 

This metal building has our vertical roof with horizontal sides and ends and is rocking our pebble beige and earth brown colors. This building also has our 90-mph wind warranty, which becomes available when our customers purchase all of the required anchors.

 

Remember that American Steel Carports DOES NOT offer any concrete work, so the ground surface must be level before we can install your metal building.

 

Does it snow frequently in your area? Give us a call and let one of our sales representatives help you customize your metal building by adding extra reinforcement. Not sure what your building will look like? We can provide you with a sketch for visual purposes so that we’re on the same page according to your expectations. Remember, this is your building, your creation—and we want to deliver the best experience possible with our company.

RV Cover with flexibility

Posted on October 30, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Don’t leave your second home unprotected! Let American Steel Carports help you build a carport that will keep your RV safe from inclement weather.

 

RVs offer us the freedom to travel around the country and beyond in the comfort of our own home. The ability to sleep in a cozy bed, maintain your privacy, and even cook without paying for a hotel room makes an RV a valuable investment that not many of us can afford. This means it’s important to protect your RV from the natural elements.

 

The sun can keep us warm, but it can harm our vehicles too, and this includes RVs. Some people park their RVs indoors at special facilities, but the cost can be high. So why not park and store your RV at home?

 

We work with skilled installers who can put up your metal RV cover in hours. Take a look at this 30’W × 46’L × 12’H cover we installed in Littlefield, Arizona:

 

This is just one example of what we can do. This customer chose to cover only part of the sides of the RV. If you want to customize your cover, our sales representatives can always help you and can provide you with a quote and even a sketch, if you want one.

 

We know that our metal buildings can be a big investment, but it’s important to keep in mind that they will stay strong and protect your vehicles from bad weather. Remember, we also offer financing options. Click here for more information.

Compact Barn

Posted on October 16, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Steel Structures

Amazed with our big metal buildings? How about our long agricultural barns?

 

Indeed, our steel buildings can be customized for big projects ranging from barns to protect your farm equipment and livestock to wide spans, ideal for warehouses. When people think about metal buildings, the first thing that comes to mind is a really big building. That’s a completely different thought than when they hear about mini-storage.

 

The fact that our metal buildings can be as big as 80’ wide does not necessarily mean that we can’t make them smaller. Why don’t you take a look at this compact agricultural barn installed in New Mexico:

 

Center Unit:

 

• 12’W x 21’L x 11’H

• 14 Gauge
• A-Frame Horizontal Roof
• Horizontal Ends
• 9’x7′ Roll-Up Door (front end)

 

Lean-Tos:

 

• 6’W x 21’L x 9’/7’H

• 14 Gauge
• A-Frame Horizontal Roof
• Horizontal Sides
• Horizontal Ends
• 2 – 36×72 Walk-In Doors on each Lean-To (centered)
• 6 – Windows (3 on each side of the lean-tos)
• Concrete Anchors

 

 

It’s more than clear that the purpose of this compact metal barn was to store material or animal food and maybe a tractor in the center unit. Remember that this is just an example of what we’re capable of. If you like the same style but want different dimensions, our group of experts can assist you. And if you ever have any questions regarding our metal buildings or colors, we’ll be more than happy to answer them.
