Hunting Storage

/in , , , , , , , , /by

2019 is just flying by and for the most part hunting season will be here sooner than you expect it. If you’re a hunter, you will understand that your house is probably the same as every hunter. That means you have hunting gear all around your house. In the garage, your vehicle, the laundry room, your bedroom, and maybe even your living room.

Hunting gear is highly priced, from the fire arms itself to all the equipment, so it’s important to dedicate a space and keep it in great working condition so that you can get the most out of your investment.

If you don’t already have a designated space in your home to store your hunting gear, now is the time to make one, and here in American Carports, we can help.

We offer a variety of buildings to fit your specific needs. Today we wanted to show off to you this perfect hunting equipment storage shed. This unit is made for you to store all your hunting equipment and keep it organized and protected. This custom shed features the following:

10x17x7 14 gauge with a standard roof, horizontal ends and sides, 30×30 window, and a 6×6 RUD.

Do you have something else in mind? Talk to one of our experts at 866-471-8761 , they will assist you in customizing the BEST structure within your BUDGET. Remember, delivery and installation are INCLUDED on your leveled land or concrete pad!

We don’t provide any concrete or groundwork preparation; the surface must be level before we can perform your installation.

 

*NOTE: Pricing varies by state. Local codes and regulations may affect pricing.*

/in , , , , , , , , /by

There’s no doubt that when something catches your attention, and it’s pleasing to the eye, you’ll begin to think about it a lot and want to get it for yourself. Some easy examples are a brand-new car or truck, brand-new clothes or even a brand-new toy. Well, the same thing can happen with a metal structure. If you’re looking to protect your brand-new vehicle or toys, you’ll want to find a structure that is well-built and reliable, so that your belongings will be well-protected, but you’ll also want something that looks great on your property.

With a metal structure, the looks are more aesthetic than practical, but aesthetics are important too, and we understand that. At American Carports, we like to let our customers be creative with their color choices by giving them the freedom to choose from our 13 different color options at no additional price. Of course, we will certify that your metal structure is strong enough to last for many years.

With that being said, let us tease you with this 30’W x 36’Lx 12’H Side Entry Garage:

  • 12-Gauge Galvanized Tubing
  • A-Frame Vertical Roof
  • (3) 10’x10′ Roll-Up Doors
  • 36″x80″ Walk-In Door

What is it that people love about side entries? The main advantage of garage doors being installed on the side is that you can save yourself some money since it’s cheaper to grow in length instead of width.

Short Blog: Some Easy Maintenance Ideas

/in , , , , , , /by

We are all aware of the superiority of steel over wood structures, and this includes ease of maintenance. However, there are still some easy and quick things you can do to keep your steel structure in the best shape.

  • The first thing we recommend is to keep a maintenance log to stay on top of all the maintenance you’ve done and when.
  • The easiest place to start is with a basic wash, especially when the weather conditions change. Whether its leaves being blown around or dirt from nearby country roads, a quick power wash will return your American Carports’ structure to like-new.
  • Overhead doors also need attention, so remember to wash them too. Using a light degreaser can help cut through any dirt that has accumulated.
  • Dusting the roof with a soft bristle broom to remove debris is recommended. Please be sure to take every safety precaution to not put anyone in danger while doing so.
  • Periodically check that all screws are tightened and have not come loose. Using a lubricant product on all moving parts, doors and windows are highly recommended to maintain the like-new look and function.

We hope these tips are helpful and will assist you in enjoying your American Carports metal building for years to come.

Endless Ways to Customize Your Metal Building

/in , , , , /by

Whether you’re looking for a simple carport/garage, a warehouse, or a completely custom metal building, American Carports will make the metal structure of your dreams come true! With more than 20 years of service in the carport industry, we know exactly how to give our customers a pleasant experience.

Any side of your carport can be customized. Whether you want some extra space between the legs, to make it taller than 12’, or an additional lean-to, we cover it all!

Headers:

One of the most common customizations is our headers. Headers can increase the spacing in between the legs and function as actual openings. Some of our customers who opt to enclose their metal buildings prefer to have openings instead of actual garage doors.

13’ or taller:

Our standard, triple wide, and widespan flyers normally only go up to 12’ tall, but that doesn’t mean we’ll limit ourselves. In fact, the tallest we can go is 20’. We might not build skyscrapers, but we can make your structure tall enough to hold your trailers or any toys you want to protect.

Lean-Tos or Connections:

When people hear the word “lean-to,” they automatically picture an agricultural barn with lean-tos on each side, which are also called wings. Lean-tos can be added to most of our buildings as additional storage space or as carports for parking your vehicles.

What about if you have two buildings and you just want to connect them? American  Carports can connect your buildings as well!

Different Pitches:

Yes, we offer different angles or pitches for our metal buildings! All of our buildings come with a 3/12 roof pitch, but we can go as low as 2/12 or as high as 8/12 (depending on the unit).

 

If you are considering making any of these customizations, don’t be afraid to let us know. We will work with you until we can make the building you’re looking for. Aside from that, don’t forget that American Carports makes sure that your building is certified by the best engineers. And don’t forget to ask for our financing options!
