Simple Metal Storage Building

Posted on June 25, 2018 by - ACI, Blog, Customer Builds

Simple can be enough to protect your valuable belongings.

 

At American Carports, even the most common and simple designs are good enough to protect your belongings and add value to your property. When it comes to metal steel buildings, most of our customers want to customize. However, it doesn’t always have to be about customizing your entire building; in fact, we’ve seen a lot of customers opt for simple metal garages with one door or just a carport.

 

If you know what you’re looking for in your metal building and have the dimensions you want, then you’ve come to the right place. Take a look at this 20’W x 26’L x 10’H metal building:

 

• 10’x8′ Roll-Up Door

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door

 

 

That’s what we refer to as a simple building, since it only comes with a single garage door, a walk-in door, and our A-Frame Horizontal roof (boxed eave). With 12 different colors to choose from at no additional charge, you can add your own personal touch. Remember that you can choose different colors for the roof, the side walls, and the trim if you’d like.

 

Give us a call and ask to speak with a sales representative. Our experts will answer any questions or concerns you might have about our buildings before placing your order. Remember to ask about our financing options. Also, don’t forget to follow us on Instagram.

Colonial/Wainscot Style for your Metal Building

Posted on June 21, 2018 by - Blog, News/Press, Product Reviews, Questions

Do you like to be colorful? Would you like your carport to have a residential look with additional colors? Then let American Carports do the trick for you.

 

Did you know that you can have two colors on your horizontal siding carport at no additional charge? Many of our customers have chosen to go with this specific style called colonial or wainscot style. Choosing to go with contrasting or complimentary colors on your structure makes the building look unique while adding your own personal touch, and with thirteen (13) different colors for you to mix and match, you can easily make your vision into a reality.

 

*Note: We also offer colonial/wainscot on vertical buildings. However, there will be additional fees depending on the size of the end and the sides.* 

 

Wonder how a multi-color metal building looks like? Here are a few examples from customers just like you, giving you a little taste of what we can do to your metal building:

 

 

Beautiful, isn’t it? With a very relevant style, and all customization.

Our main goal is to meet your expectations and give you the most pleasant experience when purchasing a metal carport.

3-Bay Metal Garage

Posted on June 13, 2018 by - ACI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

If you have multiple vehicles at your house, it may be a little challenging to get every single one protected from the weather, especially if the only garage you have is the one attached to your house. Moving the other cars just to get one out can be quite annoying, too, especially if you’re in a hurry or the weather isn’t cooperating.

 

This scenario happens pretty often. That’s why American Steel Carports encourages you to acquire a 3-bay metal garage for your vehicles. The big advantage of having your garage doors on the side of the building, instead of the end, is that expanding in length is not as expensive as expanding in width. End walls are pricier due to the material needed. With your garage doors on the side, your cars will be just as secure, and at a lower cost.

 

Check out this 30’W x 41’L x 12’H 3-bay metal garage:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides & Ends

• 3 – 10’x10′ Roll-Up Doors

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door

• Concrete Anchors

 

You can always come up with your own designs as well. Also, remember that we can always adjust the length, width, and height of any metal building according to your needs. Doors sizes can always be changed as well. All the pictures we’ve showed, are just live examples of designs and styles that our customers opt for according to their specifications and tastes.

 

If you have a project in mind, or you’re looking to get a quote, give us call! Let one of your experts assist you with any questions you may have. Don’t forget to ask about our financing options.

Full Protection with Fully Vertical Garages

Posted on June 4, 2018 by - Blog, Product Reviews, Questions

Durability and easy maintenance are what our metal buildings are best known for. With more than 16 years of experience, we know exactly how to make our buildings last a long time. If wind and snow loads are your main concerns, then you’ve come to the right place.

 

Among the many styles we offer, there’s a special one that we recommend to all our customers: the vertical style. When the panels run vertically, they let water, dirt, and snow run off easily. This type of roof is highly recommended in snowy areas. Our buildings are certified for 20–30 PSF, but don’t forget to check with your building department about snow-load requirements; if your city requires more, we can certify it by adding more material.

 

Our A-frame roofs come in a residential style too, so if you happen to live in the city or the suburbs, our buildings will blend in with the neighborhood. Keep in mind that vertical siding buildings have the advantage of allowing insulation to be added.

 

 

Take a look at this fully vertical garage:

 

• 30’W x 31’L x 12’H

• 12-Gauge Galvanized Tubing

• 2 – 10′ x 10′ Roll-Up Doors

• 36″ x 80″ Walk-In Door (side)

• Fully Vertical

• 90-mph Wind Warranty (20 Concrete Anchors)

 

 

The garage comes with a 20-year warranty on rust-through of the framing, because it’s built from 12-gauge galvanized tubing. Another feature is the concrete anchors that we offer. Keep in mind that you can also get our 90-mph wind warranty if you purchase all the anchors required. The placement of doors is optional: they can go on the ends or on the sides. Remember that if the roll-up door goes on the side, the leg height needs to be at least one foot taller than the door.

 

We care for your needs, and it’s our responsibility to offer you high-quality service. We recommend to our customers what’s best for them. If you don’t know how to get started with your quote, simply give us a call! One of our sales representatives will help you with all your questions.

New Tariff on Steel: New Prices on the Company

Posted on May 15, 2018 by - Blog

The price of steel will be going up more and more here in the United States within the next few months. As such, we highly suggest that you purchase your metal carport or building prior to the tariff on steel imports goes into effect. Due to this nationwide increase in the cost of steel, we and many other carport companies will be increasing the prices of most of our buildings.

 

 

On March 8th, 2018, in hopes of reviving our domestic steel industry by opening closed mills and reducing the need to rely on foreign producers of steel products, President Trump signed Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act to impose a 25% tariff on steel imports from all countries except Mexico and Canada. According to the president, this new tariff will also provide a form of national security.

 

 

Although our company makes it a mission to purchase all American-made materials, we will still feel the strain of steel prices increasing. American Steel Carports, Inc. and American Carports, Inc. will work hard to keep our prices as low as possible while still providing the best in steel carports and buildings nationwide. We still suggest placing your orders within the next few months to ensure that you receive the lowest price possible. Remember that we have an excellent sales team who will work with you to design the perfect metal building for your needs. Give us a call and ask to speak with one of our representatives, and don’t forget that we offer financing.
