It’s Time for a New Upgrade!

Posted on May 14, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

Metal barns have been in the industry for many years, and steel barns come in many shapes and sizes.

 

Customization is a big part of our company. It attracts most of our customers because of all the designs that we’re capable of building. And with American Steel Carports, you get a metal structure that’s not only well-built, but also engineer-certified to last for many years.

 

Have you heard of our colonial or wainscoat style? How about our “Texas cuts”?

 

Our colonial or wainscoat style is a design that provides side panels of one color ascending the wall to about the half-way point, where they meet with a contrasting upper wall color. This two-tone effect makes your metal building more visually appealing. This option is free in buildings with horizontal siding. However, if your building is fully vertical, then this option would come with an additional price.

 

Texas cuts, or 45° angles, give your metal building a unique look. This type of cut can be applied to frame outs or openings. Be aware that this option does come with an additional price per opening.

 

Take a look at this 20’W x 26’L x 9’H metal garage that’s rocking our two features described above:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• 2 – 9’ x 7’ Roll-Up Doors

• 2 – 45° Frame Out

• Colonial Style

• Concrete Anchors

 

 

This metal building turned out great, the excellent combination of colors making it stand out from its surroundings.

 

You can create your own design, too! Give us a call to speak with one our team members. We will help you design and build the perfect structure for you! Don’t forget to ask about our financing options. Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer!

Protect Your Second Home Too!

Posted on May 7, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, News/Press, Product Reviews, Questions, Steel Structures

Don’t leave you RV unprotected from the environment! Just as we need our RVs to give us roofs over our heads, our RVs deserve roofs of their own to keep them safe and protected.

 

Finding the perfect cover for RVs can be quite challenging, as they can vary considerably in height. One solution is paying to park your RV at a local RV parking spot. This might sound like a good plan, as your RV will be parked and protected and you save some space – but in the long run, that price you’re paying regularly could’ve been the total price you paid for an RV cover to be delivered and installed at home.

 

Remember that we can go taller than 12’ (what our flyers says). In fact, we can go as high as 20’ tall on our buildings, so covering an RV will not be a challenge for us! Take a look at this 24’W x 36’L x 14’H unit:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• 12-Gauge Galvanize Tubing

• 6′ Vertical Sides

• 2 – Vertical Gable Ends

• Concrete Anchors

 

 

*Disclaimer: Additional material might be required to meet local codes. Therefore, the inside design and pricing may vary by state.*

 

This RV cover is made in 12-gauge, which includes our 20-year limited warranty on rust-through of the framing. It also comes with a vertical roof, 6’ vertical sides (partially enclosed), two vertical gables, and concrete anchors.

 

There are endless ways to design that perfect metal building of your dreams! Give us a call now to speak with one of experts, and don’t forget to ask about our financing options. Want to see our buildings in person? Call now and ask for your local dealer!

Still debating if you should get that metal building you’ve been thinking about? Don’t wait too long before our busy season gets here!

 

Multipurpose metal buildings are our top sellers throughout the entire year. Aside from providing storage spaces, they can also be used as garages or even workshops. And with so many customizations available, we can create the perfect steel building for you!

This metal building comes with our A-frame horizontal roof (boxed eave), a walk-in door, and a 12’ x 9’ opening that’s wide enough for your big toys!

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!

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.

Amazing Metal Buildings Come from Amazing Ideas.

Posted on May 2, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Most of our designs come from our customers’ most valuable ideas—the ideas that complement the very idea of what a metal building is. Customization helps us implement these ideas.

When it comes to customized metal buildings, our clients’ biggest fear is that our units won’t withstand harsh weather. To verify your specific local wind rates, you’ll have to contact your city’s building department. But the main protection we offer is the addition of anchors. We do offer rebar anchors (temporary anchors) for free, although they don’t come with any guarantee. Much better are our asphalt and concrete mobile home anchors, which have a warranty for winds of up to 90 mph.

What happens if the winds are stronger?

If the winds are stronger, we start by adding more trusses. In some cases, we add bigger peak and corner braces.

American Steel Carports does not do any concrete work, but we do offer our customers recommendations for concrete foundations. This a good example of one of our customers in Portales, New Mexico:

• 22′ x 26′ x 10′

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• 14-Gauge Galvanize Tubing

• 3 – 9×7 Roll-Up Doors (2 on left side, 1 on right side)

• 36×80 Walk-In Door (front end)

• 12′ x 26′ x 10’/8′ Lean-To

• Continuous Roof

• 25′ Double Bar Header (for Lean-To)

*DISCLAIMER: Headers may vary upon county regulations or snow loads. Prices are subject to change at any time without notice. Please contact our sales department for our latest prices.*

If you have any specific requirements, don’t hesitate to let our sales representatives know. Together we can develop your ideas and make them come true. We can create sketches to help you fully visualize them and make sure that every little detail has been taken care of.

We also offer financing! Click here to check the requirements and see our applications, or give us a call to get more information. You can keep up with our most recent installs if you click on our blog section.

Metal Building with a Lean-To

Posted on April 17, 2017 by - A-Frame Horizontal, ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Questions, Steel Structures

Additional Extensions to Your Metal Storage Building

Lean-tos are very handy when it comes to additions. They don’t just offer protection—they can also serve as extra space or a small carport for your vehicle! Most of our customers prefer a 3-foot or larger drop on their lean-tos, but remember that it’s your choice how to enhance your metal building!

Types of Lean-Tos:

We offer two different styles when it comes to lean-tos. The first one is the regular drop lean-to. As explained earlier, this lean-to has a gap from the original height, coming down to whichever height you prefer.

The second style is a continuous lean-to, which means that there’s no gap in between the first height from the second one. You can see the sample of a continuous lean-to below:

What Makes American Steel Carports Different?

Unlike other companies, we provide the right number of trusses in order to protect our metal buildings from the environment. However, we also recommend that you acquire our concrete, mobile home, or asphalt anchors in order to avoid disastrous situations. Another of our features is that we count with a variety of sizes when it comes to roll-up and overhead doors.

Here is a great example of a metal building with a continuous lean-to.

  • 26’W x 31’L x 11’H
  • 14-Gauge Galvanized Tubing
  • A-Frame Horizontal Roof
  • 36″ x 72″ Walk-In Door (on the side)
  • 18 x 9 Roll-Up Door
  • 12 x 30 x 8 Continuous Lean-To
  • A-Frame Horizontal Roof
  • (1) Full Side

American Steel Carports will take care of the delivery and installation of your metal building on your level site or concrete slab. We want to make sure that our buildings meet your expectations and needs. Remember that you can always give us a call for more information. One of our sales representatives will assist you and answer any questions you might have about our buildings. You can also check our other blogs for more important information and images of buildings that we’ve recently installed.
