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.

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.

Custom Metal Building From Arkansas

Posted on September 15, 2016 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Wouldn’t it be great if metal buildings, such as garages, workshops, or even barns, were built in a more residential style? American Steel Carports has taken its buildings to the next level. We want to make sure that we meet all your expectations and provide you with high-quality products, most importantly with certified buildings that will last for years.

 

Many of our customers add lean-tos to their structures, and the way they use them varies with their specific needs. This 30’W x 61’L x 12’H metal structure built in Arkansas is a perfect example of how our buildings can be adapted to a residential style. It also uses our new deluxe windows, and has the A-frame vertical roof style on both the structure itself and the lean-to.

 

• 2 – 10’x8 Roll-Up Doors (front and back)

• 6 – Windows

• Walk-In Door (on the side)

• 12’W x 61’L x 11’/8’H Lean-To

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Gable End

 

 

 

A-Frame Vertical Roofs allow for easy maintenance because the panels are all siding, from the peak to the eaves. They let water, snow, and dirt run off easily.

 

Impressive, isn’t it? And we can change the building’s dimensions to suit your needs. This is just a small preview of what we can offer you. Remember, it’s your ideas that make the difference with your metal buildings. And with thirteen (13) colors to choose from, you can add your personal touch.
