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.
