For fully enclosed steel garages, doors are a necessity. Did you know that American Steel offers its customers the choice of overhead or roll-up doors? In addition to our garage doors, we carry mobile home doors, allowing easy accessibility for your smaller tasks. We also keep our warehouses stocked with a number of standard door sizes (6’x6’, 8’x6’, 9’x7’, 10’x8’, and 10’x10’), allowing you the fastest scheduling possible. As if that weren’t enough, American Steel gives its customers many options for customizing doors to fit their specific needs.

Roll-up doors are a great, cost-effective access point to any steel garage. They come with ribbed steel panels and are spring-loaded, giving them a weightless feel. The standard color of our roll-up doors is white, but this can be upgraded to any of our 12* custom colors. As mentioned above, our warehouses stock six standard sizes, but doors can be custom-ordered in any size to accommodate your clearance needs. Please keep in mind that all of our roll-up doors operate manually and cannot be insulated, however.

Standard overhead doors are a fantastic upgrade in comparison to the roll-up door. Their beautiful short panel design is sure to wow the neighbors, and the upgrade features include the options to add beautiful glass windows or insulation and the ability to order custom sizes that best suit your needs. One of the top reasons that customers choose the overhead door, additionally, is that they are able to function with an electric opener**, making your metal garage or carport accessible with the push of a button.

Furthermore, American Steel Carports recommends that our customers add a walk-in door, otherwise referred to as a service door. This allows customers a secondary entrance point and easy access to the storage space for smaller items. The walk-in door comes in three available sizes (36”x72”, 36”x80”, and, in some locations, the 72”x72” double door). All of the walk-in doors come in white and feature a basic door handle with keys for your security needs. Also, American Steel Carports is now offering a new item! Be sure to ask your sales rep about our new 20-gauge steel insulated heavy-duty walk in doors. For an additional cost, moreover, we offer framed-out openings for your personal or pre-owned doors.

American Steel Carports understands that this is not a one-size-fits-all world. We offer all of the latest top-quality door options for your entrance requirements. In addition, we are always happy to accommodate our customers’ specific needs. American Steel is here for you, so give us a call and let our qualified customer service representatives help you to build the steel garage of your dreams with doors that you’ll love.

When thinking of a carport or a steel garage, it’s more than likely that the standard roof style comes to mind. These roofs, recognizable for their 3’/12” pitch and curved sides, can be seen throughout the United States. You may have noticed that the panels on the roofs run from end to end, with a 6-inch overhang. Customers who are seeking cost-effective storage solutions have been happily ordering them from American Steel and enjoying the low cost and maintenance results for many years. However, as the need for storage has expanded, so have the needs of our customers.

American Steel Carports proudly offers several roofing options to fit your needs. Here, you will read about our A-frame roof style features and options. With the A-frame’s continuing popularity, it is no wonder why more and more customers are asking about the benefits of the A-frame and deciding to make the upgrade.

A-frame styles have definitely become a growing trend. They look fantastic in residential areas and provide additional strength to carports or steel garages. American Steel Carports offers the A-frame with the choice of placing the roof panels either horizontally or vertically. Both of these options require a minimum of a 6-foot leg height to accommodate the 4’/12” pitch. They are both finished with a beautiful box eave trim and a 6-inch overhang.

The differences between the two can be quite interesting, though. The A-frame horizontal option is installed with the panels placed along the length of the carport or garage. This roof style has gained in popularity recently because it offers customers an affordable way to match the roof styles of their homes and/or existing garages. In comparison to the standard-style roof, it does allow for some additional protection from snow loads because of its higher pitch.

For maximum protection, however, American Steel Carports recommends the A-frame vertical roof, especially in areas that have larger snowfall or strict snow-load restrictions. With the vertical design, the panels run from the ridge cap downwards, giving the snow, ice, and debris very little chance to build up.

Both the A-frame horizontal and the A-frame vertical can be enhanced with additional truss and bracing to ensure that you have as much protection as you need. Also, your questions, thoughts, and concerns can be properly addressed by calling one of our skilled sales reps or highly educated engineers. Whether you are going for style or additional strength, American Steel Carports has you covered.

Are you an RV owner or thinking of becoming one? Your plans to store your RV are going to depend on its size and how often you will be using it. Why pay large fees to protect your travel home with a storage company when you can just own your own carport? American Steel, like other carport companies, is often associated with covering and storing automobiles. Did you know that American Steel Carports also makes buildings tall enough to cover your RV? We offer standard pricing for RV metal carports and garages as high as 12 feet tall, and we offer custom pricing for those who need additional clearance.

RV metal carports are similar to regular carports and are typically made with our standard roof. Like regular carports, they are open on the sides and ends. Our customers may decide to partially enclose their units or upgrade their roofs to one of our A-Frame styles. Because of the height needed to store your RV, American Steel recommends that you choose an anchor system that insures your investment with our 90 mile/hour wind warranty. Ask our sales team for more information on this.

For maximum protection, furthermore, you might want to consider a fully enclosed garage. Most customers request doors or openings on both ends of a garage that can be driven through. American Steel carries overhead doors that are up to 16 feet tall and roll-up doors that are as high as 18 feet. Our customers also have the option to add a walk-in door for additional convenience. Also, you can never go wrong with a garage that is large enough to offer the added benefit of storing your other belongings.

With American Steel Carports, the sizes and options are limitless. If you can dream it, we can build it. American Steel brings you to new heights!
