RV Carport Benefits

Summer has come to an end, and now we have put away our tubes, camping gear, and fishing equipment until next season. There’s just one thing left to cover: the most expensive toy you own, your RV. We at American Steel can provide the most affordable and durable solution for you, and I figured I would tell you a few of the benefits to using an American Steel RV cover.

1. Efficiency. American Steel carports and garages are engineered, certified structures that are delivered and installed on your building site. Steel buildings require about 2/3 the time of conventional construction.

2. Affordability. Because we own our manufacturing facilities, we can offer you fantastic value for your money. The construction costs for a steel building vs. conventional construction can be reduced by 60%.

3. The ability to go up to 18 feet high. Steel is lightweight but also one of the one of the strongest building materials available, with a very high strength-to-weight ratio. Steel garages are even lighter than wood!

4. Ease of maintenance. Steel buildings are a great option for any geographic area, with the ability to resist rain, snow, and high winds. Want to clean your building? Just spray it with soap, then with water from the hose or pressure washer.

5. Reduced fire danger. Because steel is non-combustible, your insurance costs can drop as much as 40% if your belongings are in a steel garage instead of a highly flammable wood structure.

6. Stronger than a hurricane. Steel buildings can withstand high winds and heavy snow and stay upright through earthquakes. Some of the world’s tallest buildings are made of steel because of its ability to meet strict wind and seismic requirements. The difference between steel and concrete is that concrete can shift and crack. Scientists also say that concrete can crumble under very strong wind. Steel, however, will bend slightly and move with the storm. Metal buildings are the only structures that usually survive intact through hurricanes.

12’ x 16’ x 7’ Mini Storage

Have you ever thought about how much stuff we actually have in our homes? They say that you don’t really know how much stuff you have until it’s time to move out. If you think about it, there are belongings that we can’t just simply get rid of but that still take up space, like paperwork that might not be useful at that moment, but will be crucial at some point. What about our garden tools? There’s so much that can be stored.

However, what if you don’t have enough space for a metal building on your property? That’s when things get tricky—but you don’t have to worry: that’s why there are mini-storages.

Mini-storages are the best addition to your property when space is limited and all you need is to keep your belongings safe and protected. American Carports offers mini-storages for your special needs with many different sizes and options.

Take a look at this 12’W x 16’L x 7’H mini-storage, for example:

A-Frame Vertical Roof
Horizontal Sides & Ends
6’x6′ Roll-Up Door
Wood Floor

Customization is another feature that we offer in our metal structures. As we mentioned before, all of our metal buildings are designed to meet your special needs and expectations. You can start planning now by giving us a call at (866) 471-8761 for a quick customized quote. Remember that all of our mini-storage buildings come with a ¾” pressure-treated wood floor.
