Custom Metal Building w/ Lean-To

Posted on May 7, 2018 by - Blog

Wouldn’t it be great if metal buildings, such as garages, workshops, or even barns, were built in a more residential style? American Carports has taken its buildings to the next level. We want to make sure that we meet all your expectations and provide you with high-quality products, most importantly with certified buildings that will last for years.

 

Many of our customers add lean-tos to their structures, and the way they use them varies with their specific needs. This 30’W x 61’L x 12’H metal structure built in 12-gauge is a perfect example of how our buildings can be adapted to a residential style. It also uses our new deluxe windows and has the A-frame vertical roof style on both the structure itself and the lean-to.

 

• 2 – 10’x8 Roll-Up Doors (front and back)

• 6 – Windows

• Walk-In Door (on the side)

• 12’W x 61’L x 11’/8’H Lean-To

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• 2 –  Gable End

 

Disclaimer: Additional material might be required to meet local codes. Therefore, the inside design and pricing may vary by state. Prices are subject to change at any time without notice. Please contact our sales department for our latest prices*

 

A-Frame Vertical Roofs allow for easy maintenance because the panels are all siding, from the peak to the eaves. They let water, snow, and dirt run off easily.

 

Impressive, isn’t it? And we can change the building’s dimensions to suit your needs. This is just a small preview of what we can offer you. Remember, it’s your ideas that make the difference with your metal buildings. And with thirteen (13) colors to choose from, you can add your own personal touch.

Additional Extensions to Your Metal Storage Building

 

Lean-tos are very handy when it comes to additions. They don’t just offer protection—they can also serve as extra space or a small carport for your vehicle! Most of our customers prefer a 3-foot or larger drop on their lean-tos, but remember that it’s your choice how to enhance your metal building!

 

 

Types of Lean-Tos:

 

We offer two different styles when it comes to lean-tos. The first one is the regular drop lean-to. As explained earlier, this lean-to has a gap from the original height, coming down to whichever height you prefer.

 

The second style is a continuous lean-to, which means that there’s no gap in between the first height from the second one. You can see the sample of a continuous lean-to below:

 

 

What Makes American Carports Different?

 

Unlike other companies, we provide the right number of trusses in order to protect our metal buildings from the environment. However, we also recommend that you acquire our concrete, mobile home, or asphalt anchors in order to avoid disastrous situations. Another of our features is that we count with a variety of sizes when it comes to roll-up and overhead doors.

 

Here is a great example of a metal building with a continuous lean-to.

 

• 26’W x 31’L x 11’H

• 14-Gauge Galvanized Tubing

• A-Frame Horizontal Roof

• 36×72 Walk-In Door (on the side)

• 18 x 9 Roll-Up Door

• 12’W x 31’L x 8’H Continuous Lean-To

• Concrete Anchors (90-mph wind warranty)

 

 

American Carports will take care of the delivery and installation of your metal building on your level site or concrete slab. We want to make sure that our buildings meet your expectations and needs. Remember that you can always give us a call for more information. One of our sales representatives will assist you and answer any questions you might have about our buildings.

Add Value to Your Property

This year feels like it’s going pretty fast, but you still have enough time to place your order and be ready for the summer and winter!

 

We specialize in metal buildings. Whether you want a mini-storage, metal barn, simple carport, or more complex building or warehouse, American Carports will be there to make sure that your unit gets installed correctly. Our sales representatives will work with you to ensure that you get exactly what you’re looking for. We can even provide a free sketch for visual purposes!

 

Take this 30’W x 51’L x 10’H metal workshop as an example of what we’re capable of:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Four (4) – 10’x8′ Roll-Up Doors (on the side)

• Two (2) – 30″x30″ Windows (one on each end)

• 6’x7′ Roll-Up Door (front end)

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door (back end)

 

 

NOTE: Adding roll-up doors on the side of the building can save you some money, since it’s cheaper to grow in length than in width. When the metal building overpasses 30’ in length, we strongly recommend opting for a vertical roof; this will help you avoid any leaks in the future.

 

You can always share your ideas and thoughts and customize your own building, and we will do our best to make it happen. Remember, the dimensions and additional features (such as garage doors, windows, etc.) can always be changed.

 

Give us a call! And don’t forget to ask about our financing options. Ask for your local dealer if you want to get a closer look at our available metal buildings.
