Installer Shortage

The sign read, “Willing to travel, not weary of the road and best if single with no kids.”

 

That was from an old draft poster for the war. Well, the same could be said for the hard-working guys that install your unit. These determined guys spend a large amount of time on the road far from home and away from their families, and fighting the elements they might encounter while they drive to the installation site. We call them Installers.

 

There are a lot of moving parts in this business and the installers are a huge part of it. In fact, they’re one of the most important part of our business. We use an engineered certified construction technique that takes time and skill to master. With that being said, we cannot trust just anyone to build our metal structures.

 

 

If you are ever driving around and happen to see some guys hard at work on a shed in the sun, rain or even snow beating down just watch and appreciate them for a moment. It’s not the easiest job and well you know the rest: somebody must do it and why not the best?

 

All the pictures you’ve seen here on our website, our social media, and our blogs, are part of our installers who take their time to capture their work. You’re not only seeing another customer’s creation, but the quality, effort, and patience combined to erect that metal building.

Agricultural Barn

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 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. With the variety of options we offer, there’s so much to choose from. Don’t forget to ask about our financing options.
