Need a Metal Garage?

Posted on March 29, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

There is still time for you to place your order before the busy season starts! As you know, there are places where summer can have the perfect weather, a nice breeze, and clear skies without being humid or terribly hot. However, there are certain areas where summer can feel suffocating because of the intense heat. If we suffer from the blazing sun, imagine what our vehicles go through when they’re parked outside our homes, receiving all that heat with no protection whatsoever every day.

 

Parking your vehicle where it is exposed to direct sunlight can be very damaging, as you may know. The intense temperatures in the summer can damage your dashboard and seats as well as your vehicle’s finish and engine. That’s why it’s better to prepare for this summer while there’s still time to order your metal garage. Take this 24’W x 26’L x 9’H metal garage as an example:

 

• Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides & Ends

• 30″x30″ Window

• 2 – 36″x72″ Walk-In Doors

• 2 – 9’x7′ Roll-Up Doors

• Mobile Home Anchors

 

 

Parking your vehicle inside a garage to avoid direct sunlight is the easiest way to protect it. If it’s safe to do so, open the windows a crack in order to equalize and lower the air temperature and pressure inside. Remember that we can customize any metal unit per your needs and specifications.

 

We’re here to help you, so give us a call at (866) 730-9865 to speak with one of our sales representatives! Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer! And don’t forget to ask about our available financing options.

Let’s Get Your Vehicles Protected

Posted on March 13, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds

We’re almost halfway through March, folks! It’s time to get your metal garage ready before the intense heat starts to hit us. Our metal garages will protect your vehicles, equipment, or any valuables you might consider storing inside.

 

All of our garages come in different sizes. The key to getting a good-sized metal garage is to know the dimensions you’re looking for. Many customers will freeze when we ask what dimensions they want. That won’t stop our experts from recommending certain sizes that will work for you – but keep in mind that if you need the additional space to store something besides your vehicle, it would be better for you to measure the space needed.

 

Take a look at this 30’W x 31’L x 12’H garage:

 

 

There’s plenty of space for your vehicles and enough to fit an average-sized truck inside. It also has a vertical roof, our most recommended roof style, horizontal siding, 2 (two) 10’ x 10’ roll-up doors, 2 (two) 30” x 30” windows, and a 36” x 80” walk-in door.

 

What if I like the concept of the building, but I need to change the length?

 

We would be more than happy to customize your metal garage according to your needs. All of the pictures we post are live examples of what we can do. If you need us to customize it, we will do it!

 

What if I like everything about the building except the colors?

 

With over 13 (thirteen) different colors to choose from, you can add your personal touch to your metal garage.

 

Don’t wait too long! Give us a call and let one of our experts help you customize your metal garage! And don’t forget to ask about our financing options!

Live in the North? You’d better watch out for the Snow!

Posted on March 7, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Promotions

Vertical siding buildings are the most recommended when it comes to states that get a lot of snow. The vertical roof allows natural elements like snow, water, dirt, leaves, and dust to slide off easily without the need for constant maintenance, unlike other roof styles. And if the vertical roof can give you all that, imagine having vertical sides! It would definitely make your metal garage maintenance-free!

 

Another cool feature that we offer is our overhead doors. These doors create more of a residential look, and they can actually be connected to a garage opener. Please keep in mind that American Steel Carports does not offer that type of service: we would only provide the installation of your metal building and the overhead door.

 

This 18’W x 26’L x 10’H metal garage is a perfect example of a fully vertical (a.k.a., maintenance-free) building:

 

• 16’x7′ Overhead door

• 4 – 30″x30″ Windows (2 on the side)

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door (on the side)

 

 

There are many ways to customize your metal garage! Before making a purchase, though, it’s recommended that all of our customers talk with their local building departments to get the necessary permits. Remember that not all states and counties are the same: some might require additional plans or calculations, while others would take the generic plans. Also, know that our generic plans come free when you place your order with us.

 

Give us a call and let one of our experts help you build that garage of your dreams! Does your area have a higher snow load? Let our experts know, and we’ll work with your requirements until we meet them. Want to see our buildings in person? Call us and ask for your local dealer! And don’t forget to ask about our financing options.

Plenty of Space for Your Toys!

Posted on March 1, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, News/Press, Steel Structures

There’s still plenty of time to get your metal garage before summer gets in the way! As you know, it’s very important to keep our valuables and vehicles under a roof. If you want them to last a long time, they need to be protected from sun damage and harsh weather.

 

The key to our metal buildings is that we will customize and transform them according to your needs and preferences; not to mention that ALL our buildings are engineer-certified!

 

Although American Steel Carports does not offer any concrete work, furthermore, we will provide concrete anchors to secure your structure—not to mention that you can get our 90-mph wind warranty when you purchase all the anchors needed. Take this 24’W x 51’L x 9’H metal garage as an example:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof
• Horizontal Sides & Ends
• 2 – Walk-in Doors (diamond window)
• 4 – 30″x30″ Windows (2 on each end)
• 4 – 10’x8′ Roll-Up Doors (on the side)

 

 

This metal garage has a vertical roof, one of the best roof styles we offer. Besides its pleasant-looking residential style, it allows natural elements such as snow, dirt, water, and leaves to slide off very easily. Also, once a metal building exceeds 30’ in length, we recommend choosing a vertical roof to eliminate the possibility of leaks in the future. Another important fact, is having your roll-up doors on the side can give you plenty of advantages when it comes to this type of building, since it’s cheaper to grow in length than in width.

 

Your metal garage is just one call away! Ask to speak with one of our sales representatives who will help customize your metal building according to your needs. Also, don’t forget to ask about our financing options. Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer!

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!

Metal Storage Building

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.

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.

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.

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.
