American Carports is number one in the carport industry. Our 20 years in the field can speak for themselves, and you can see our expertise by simply looking at the many different steel structures that we’ve provided for our customers throughout the years. What sets us apart with that we make your needs our priority and make your ideas a reality with our metal buildings.

Most customers who live up north prefer to add additional trusses to reinforce their metal buildings against the snow or very strong winds. We can definitely do that, to secure your investment and make your metal structure last for many years, resisting the natural elements.

Then people who have more moderate weather and don’t have to worry about severe snow storms usually like to remove the trusses for more openings.

Here’s an example of removing trusses for openings instead:

This 22’W x 51’L x 12’H comes fully equipped with (8) 10’x9’ frame outs with 45° cuts , and (2) 18’ x 13’ openings with 45° cuts (front and back ends).

Selling Booth

Stay Green

  • A carport can also be converted into a greenhouse. We can customize a building by using skylights as transparent siding where sunlight can shine through onto your prospering plants.

However, we can build taller than that; as of matter of fact, 20’ tall is our actual limit! So, covering an RV will not be a challenge for us! Don’t believe me?

Endless Ways to Customize Your Metal Building

Posted on January 22, 2019 by - ACI, Blog, Informative, Lifestyle, Steel Structures

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!
