Converting Your Metal Building Into a Workshop

Posted on February 17, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Questions

 

Workshop spaces have never been in such a high demand as they are now. At American Steel Carports, we like to provide our customers with high-quality materials and deliver a great experience when it comes to installations.

 

 

Among the two different types of garage doors that we offer (roll-up doors and overhead doors) and the sizes they come in, it’s important to understand one requirement of the units. When a roll-up door exceeds 10’ in width, it has to be chain-hoisted. Because this means that these doors will close from the inside (which is a fire hazard), the units of all doors that are bigger than 10’ x 10’ must also have a walk-in door or another way to get in and out.

 

 

Check out this 30’ x 41’ x 12’ steel building used as a workshop with a 12’ x 12’ roll-up door. You can clearly see the chain hoist and the walk-in door that has been added to the side of the building to increase access.

 

 

• 30’W x 41’L x 12’H

• 12-Gauge Galvanized Tubing

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• 12′ x 12′ Roll-Up Door

• 36″ x 80″ Walk-In Door (on the side)

• 30″ x 30″ Window (on the side)

• 90-mph Wind Warranty

 

 

 

Our priorities are to give you a durable and strong metal building, but we also want to meet your expectations. Remember, the building is completely yours, so you’re welcome to customize it as much as you like, placing features such as doors and windows at your desired locations.

 

 

Remember that we offer a one-year workmanship warranty, allowing your building to go through all four seasons before the warranty expires. You can protect your investment by making sure that it’s well-constructed and safe all year round.

 

 

If you have any questions or you’re not sure about what type of carport you should get, please don’t hesitate to give us a call. One of our sales representatives will be more than happy to assist you with any inquiries. Also, don’t forget to check our triple-wide units for more information and designs that can help you explore your ideas.

 

 

Fully Vertical Garage

Posted on February 7, 2017 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Product Reviews

Durability and easy maintenance are what our metal buildings are best known for. With more than 16 years of experience, we know exactly how to make our buildings last a long time. If wind and snow loads are your main concerns, then you’ve come to the right place.

 

Among the many styles we offer, there’s a special one that we recommend to all our customers: the vertical style. When the panels run vertically, they let water, dirt, and snow run off easily. This type of roof is highly recommended in snowy areas. Our buildings are certified for 20–25 SPF, but don’t forget to check with your building department about snow-load requirements; if your city requires more, we can certify it by adding more trusses.

 

Our A-frame roofs come in a residential style too, so if you happen to live in the city or the suburbs, our buildings will blend in with the neighborhood. Keep in mind that vertical siding buildings have the advantage of allowing insulation to be added.

 

 

Take a look at this garage in Artesia, New Mexico:

 

• 30’W x 31’L x 12’H

 

• 12-Gauge Galvanized Tubing

 

• 2 – 10′ x 10′ Roll-Up Doors

 

• 36″ x 80″ Walk-In Door (side)

 

• Fully Vertical

 

• 90-mph Wind Warranty (20 Concrete Anchors)

 

 

The garage comes with a 20-year warranty on rust-through of the framing, because it’s built from 12-gauge galvanized tubing. Another feature is the concrete anchors that we offer. Keep in mind that you can also get our 90-mph wind warranty if you purchase all the anchors required. The placement of doors is optional: they can go on the ends or on the sides. Remember that if the roll-up door goes on the side, the leg height needs to be at least one foot taller than the door.

 

 

We care for your needs, and it’s our responsibility to offer you high-quality service. We recommend to our customers what’s best for them. If you don’t know how to get started with your quote, simply give us a call! One of our sales representatives will help you with all your questions. Don’t forget to check our other blogs for more information and more recently installed units.

It has a great value and can be used as a garage or storage room. The design may look simple, but it’s strong enough to resist any harsh weather. Remember, you can always add the 90-mph wind warranty when you purchase all anchors needed for your unit.

Two-Car Garage Residential Style

Posted on October 14, 2016 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, News/Press, Product Reviews, Promotions, Questions

At American Steel Carports, we want to meet your expectations and give you a few options and recommendations for your metal building or garage.

 

 

For example, we’ve seen many customers who feel that they need to build wider to make a garage for two vehicles, but who worry that this will increase the price. But putting roll-up doors on the sides is another good way to approach this, especially for two-vehicle garages. Roll-up doors on the sides definitely help make space for vehicles, and this can be adapted to a residential style too (by adding windows, doors, etc.) Please note: Leg height needs to be 1ft tallers than the door height.

 

This is a great example of a two-car garage installed in Bradford, Arkansas.

 

 

-22x26x8

 

-12-Gauge

 

-Fully Vertical

 

-Three Windows (30″x30″)

 

-Two 9×7 Roll-Up Doors

 

-One Walk-In Door (36″x72″)

It’s stylish, but the best part is that the building is engineer-certified. This

unit was made from 12-gauge galvanized tubing, which gives it a 20-year warranty against rust-through of the framing. With the unit being fully vertical, it allows elements such as dirt, snow, water, etc. to run-off very easy, and it won’t require that much maintenance compared to a horizontal siding unit. It also has a 90 mph wind warranty when you purchase all anchors needed for it; in this case the customer had mobile home anchors.

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

• 12’W x 61’L x 11’/8’H Lean-To

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.
