Partially Enclosed RV Cover

Posted on September 6, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

Looking for an RV cover?

 

A camper or a trailer can be a beneficial investment, especially if you use it as a home away from home. However, we need to make sure that we protect our investments so that they last for a really long time. The sun is the number-one element that can damage our RVs. That’s why a metal RV cover is the best option for you!

 

Some of our customers think it’s expensive to purchase a metal RV cover, since they believe that they need to pour a concrete pad on their land to secure the structure to the ground. That can be done, but only if it’s what our customers really want. There’s no need to pour a concrete pad for your metal RV cover if you don’t want to, since we can anchor the unit to the ground as long as it’s leveled.

 

For example, look at this metal RV cover installed on the ground:

 

• 24’W x 31’L x 12’H

• 14-Gauge

• Standard Roof

• 3′ Side & 9′ Side

• Horizontal End

• Mobile Home Anchors

 

With our mobile home anchors, your metal building can be secured directly to the ground. If you want additional protection, furthermore, you can add our 90-mph wind warranty when you purchase all anchors needed.

 

The only way to ensure that your RV is fully protected, however, is to make sure that it’s shielded by a metal structure like a carport or garage. Lucky for you, we sell both! If you don’t have one, then there’s not much you can do to make sure that your RV won’t be damaged.

Simple Metal Storage Building

Posted on August 28, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Simple can be enough to protect your valuable belongings.

 

At American Steel Carports, even the most common and simple designs are good enough to protect your belongings and add value to your property. When it comes to metal steel buildings, most of our customers want to customize. However, it doesn’t always have to be about customizing your entire building; in fact, we’ve seen a lot of customers opt for simple metal garages with one door or just a carport.

 

If you know what you’re looking for in your metal building and have the dimensions you want, then you’ve come to the right place. Take a look at this 20’W x 26’L x 10’H metal building:

 

• 10’x8′ Roll-Up Door

 

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door

 

That’s what we refer to as a simple building, since it only comes with a single garage door, a walk-in door, and our A-Frame Horizontal roof (boxed eave). With 12 different colors to choose from at no additional charge, you can add your own personal touch. Remember that you can choose different colors for the roof, the side walls, and the trim if you’d like.

 

Give us a call and ask to speak with a sales representative. Our experts will answer any questions or concerns you might have about our buildings before placing your order.

Metal Garage for 2 Vehicles

Posted on August 21, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

Purchasing a metal garage may seem boring and complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. The number one reason why it might seem complicated is if you don’t know the dimensions that you’re looking for. It’s important to ask for a large amount of space in order to keep your vehicles protected; this will become handy in the future in case you want to use the extra space to store other belongings.

 

Our top priorities are to make sure that our customers get their metal garages at a lower price and ensure that their metal buildings meet their demands and expectations. As always, we can recommend sizes or features that will suit your needs, such as windows, walk-in doors, or even insulation if possible.

 

Since we’re talking about metal garages, why not look at this 24’W x 31’L x 10’H:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides and Ends

• Two 10’x8′  Roll-Up Doors (on the side)

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door

• Four Windows (30″x30″)

• Concrete Anchors

 

 

 

This metal garage is very uniform and steady, rocking our pebble beige and barn red colors. Also, placing the roll-up doors on the side makes this a better option because it is cheaper to grow in length than in width.

 

Do you have something in mind? Give us a call! Ask to speak with a sales representative. Our experts will help you customize your unit in whatever way you want. Also, don’t forget to ask about our financing options – or click here for more information.

Agricultural Barn

Posted on August 14, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

 

Metal agricultural buildings offer great protection for farm equipment and even livestock, but these traditional units are not only for farm use. In fact, many of our customers opt to construct a metal agricultural barn for their vehicles. Since these lean-tos can be open or closed, there’s always the advantage of enclosing your lean-to and transforming it into a little storage room.

 

Here is a good example of a metal agricultural building being used alternatively than the traditional farm use:

 

18’W x 31’L x 12’H (Main Unit)

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• 2 – 10′ x 10′ Roll-Up Doors (one on each end)

 

12’W x 31’L x 10’/8’H (Lean-To’s)

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• Double Walk-in Door (right lean-to)

• 9′ x 7′ Roll-Up Door (left lean-to)

• Concrete Anchors (90-MPH Wind Warranty)

 

 

Please note that American Steel Carports does not offer any type of concrete work and your surface must be level in order to get the unit installed.

 

This metal unit is fully enclosed with our double walk-in doors and our A-frame horizontal roof (boxed eave), which give it a unique look.

 

You can order yours, too! Give us a call and let one of our sales representatives help you customize your metal agricultural barn today.

RV Cover in Louisiana

Posted on July 31, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

Why pay to store your RV when you can get your own RV cover?

 

RVs requires attention and care if you want to take exciting family vacations in them. They don’t only provide shelter, they also provide comfort. That’s why it’s important to protect your RV from the environment, especially from the burning heat.

 

Many people pay to store their RVs in the summer to keep them in the shade. That’s a pretty good way to protect your RV, but wouldn’t it be simpler to have your own RV cover at your own house? That’s where American Steel Carports can save the day!

 

Our experts can help you customize a metal cover to protect your RV from inclement weather. Although our pricing flyers only 12-foot high covers, that doesn’t mean we can’t go taller. We know that some RVs need more than 12 feet of clearance, and our experts can help you price and design one for your own RV.

 

Take this 20’W × 46’L × 12’H as an example:

 

 

This metal RV cover was installed in Bastrop, LA. This unit has 3-foot sides and a standard roof. But if you live in an area where snow is a concern, a vertical roof will be your best choice.

 

If you’re not sure what type or style of roof you need, just give us a call! One of our sales representatives will take care of you by providing a free quote and a sketch if you need one. Make sure to check with your local building department to certify your metal RV cover according to your local codes.

Custom Metal Carport

Posted on June 19, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Product Reviews

What if you want an open carport but you need the extra spacing on the sides?

 

At American Steel Carports, we want to accommodate all your needs. When it comes to carports, there are many ways to customize your building. Whether it’s an open carport or an enclosed metal building, we can help you personalize it.

 

Take a look at this 18′W × 26′L × 12′H from one of our customers in New Mexico. This custom carport has two 10′ headers, offering generous clearance and enough space for two decent-sized vehicles. Even with only one side in the carport, it provides enough shade for vehicles.

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

 

• Vertical Side

 

• Horizontal Gable End

 

• 2 – 10 ft Headers

 

• Concrete Anchors (90-mph Wind Warranty)

 

*Disclaimer: interior designs may vary by state or region. Above design is good for only for 30 PSF (ground snow load) may require additional trusses to meet local codes. Lateral support might be required based on wind loads*

 

Remember, you don’t need a concrete slab for most of our units under 30′ wide. However, it is important for your ground to be level in order for us to install your unit.

 

 

What are the wind rating and snow load?

 

American Steel Carports offers a 90-mph wind warranty with the purchase of all the anchors your unit needs. But this doesn’t mean we can’t certify your unit against even stronger winds. Please check with your county before making a purchase.

 

Snow loads also play a significant role, especially in northern states. Most of our units are certified for 30 lbs/ft2. But we can still certify your metal building according to your county’s requirements and specifications.

 

Give us a call! Let one of our experts help you customize your unit. Don’t forget to ask about our financing program, or click here for more information. Stay in touch with our work by checking our blog for new buildings, designs, ideas, and more.
