Metal buildings offer a great advantage thanks to their versatility. Aside from strength, durability, and a low price, they offer the ultimate protection for your valuable possessions. With our range of sizes, styles, and colors, you can visualize your future metal building with the help of a few buildings that have been recently installed. That’s exactly what we’re going to do right now: give you an idea of what your future metal workshop could look like.

Most of the buildings posted in our blogs are recently installed buildings from real customers. Some of them have a lot of customization, and others stick with a simple and basic building. Which one do you prefer? It’s your choice, and it’s good to know all types of styles that we offer. Take a look at this 30’W x 51’L x 12’H workshop:

SPECS:

  • A-Frame Vertical Roof
  • Horizontal Sides & Ends
  • 3 – 10′ x 10′ Roll-Up Doors (on the side)
  • Walk-In Door

This unit is not fully customized, but it definitely has a few attributes that you might need in the future. One of them is the garage doors going to the side of the building. Keep in mind that it is cheaper to increase the length of a building than the width. If this is something that catches your eye and you want to know the price, contact us now!

24′ x 41′ x 15′ Metal Workshop

Posted on November 12, 2018 by - A-Frame Vertical, ACI, Blog, Buildings, Custom, Customer Builds, Lifestyle, Our Specialty, Steel Structures

Do you know that the tallest you can go in any of our metal buildings is 20’? There are certain restrictions that can apply when getting a building over 12’ in height, however, such as that the leg height cannot overpass the width of the building (for stability). Many of our customers often assume that we cannot go taller than 12’ due to the standard dimensions on our flyers. But don’t let the numbers fool you—we can certainly go tall. We do want to let our customers know that once a building overpasses 12’ in height, extra labor/equipment will be required.

Aside from that important information, take a look at his 24’W x 41’L x 15’H metal workshop:

  • A-Frame Vertical Roof
  • Horizontal Sides & Ends
  • 12′ x 13.5′ Roll-Up Door (front end)
  • 8′ x 8′ Roll-Up Door (front end)
  • 36″ x 80″ Walk-In Door (left side)
  • 4 – 3′ x 8′ Skylights

Outstanding, isn’t it? Now, you might be thinking, what am I going to store in something this tall? Well, metal buildings of this height can be used for many purposes. For example, if you’re looking to protect your RV, but you don’t want the typical cover, this enclosed building can definitely provide the shade and protection you need. You can also use this building as your workshop to work on your big toys; these are just a few options to give you an idea of the endless ways that you can use this metal building.

You can always customize the size, color, and features of any of our metal buildings displayed in our blogs and social media. All you need to do is give us a call and let one of our experts help you find and price the right metal building for your specific needs! Don’t forget that we now offer Rent-To-Own in all of our service areas. Give us a call at (866) 471-8761 for more information.

Posted on October 15, 2018 by - A-Frame Vertical, ACI, Blog, Buildings, Lifestyle, Steel Structures

So, one of the most frequently asked questions from our customer is: Do I need a concrete pad for this building? The answer is NO, our buildings can be installed on normal ground or asphalt as long as the ground is leveled. However, this doesn’t apply for metal buildings wider than 30′, also known as wide spans, due to the size and the amount of material needed to keep the building sturdy.

It’s time to get your metal garage ready for the winter! Our metal garages will protect your vehicles, equipment, or any valuables you might consider storing inside.

All of our garages come in different sizes. The key to getting a good-sized metal garage is to know the dimensions you’re looking for. Many customers will freeze when we ask what dimensions they want. That won’t stop our experts from recommending certain sizes that will work for you – but keep in mind that if you need the additional space to store something besides your vehicle, it would be better for you to measure the space needed.

Take a look at this 30’W x 31’L x 12’H garage:

There’s plenty of space for your vehicles and enough to fit an average-sized truck inside. It also has a vertical roof, our most recommended roof style, horizontal siding, 2 (two) 10’ x 10’ roll-up doors, 2 (two) 30” x 30” windows, and a 36” x 80” walk-in door.

Need a Metal Garage?

Posted on September 24, 2018 by - ACI, Blog, Garage, Steel Structures

There is still time for you to place your order before the busy season starts! As you know, there are places where summer can have the perfect weather, a nice breeze, and clear skies without being humid or terribly hot. However, there are certain areas where summer can feel suffocating because of the intense heat. If we suffer from the blazing sun, imagine what our vehicles go through when they’re parked outside our homes, receiving all that heat with no protection whatsoever every day.

Parking your vehicle where it is exposed to direct sunlight can be very damaging, as you may know. The intense temperatures in the summer can damage your dashboard and seats as well as your vehicle’s finish and engine. That’s why it’s better to prepare for this summer while there’s still time to order your metal garage. Take this 24’W x 26’L x 9’H metal garage as an example:

  • Vertical Roof
  • Horizontal Sides & Ends
  • 30″x30″ Window
  • 2 – 36″x80″ Walk-In Doors
  • 2 – 9’x7′ Roll-Up Doors

 

Parking your vehicle inside a garage to avoid direct sunlight is the easiest way to protect it. If it’s safe to do so, open the windows a crack in order to equalize and lower the air temperature and pressure inside. Remember that we can customize any metal unit per your needs and specifications.

We’re here to help you, so give us a call at 866-471-8761 to speak with one of our sales representatives! Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer! And don’t forget to ask about our available financing options.

Metal Garage with Skylights

Posted on September 19, 2018 by - A-Frame Vertical, ACI, Blog, Steel Structures

Need additional illumination for your metal garage/workshop? Have you considered adding skylights to your metal building?

As we all know, illumination is very important when it comes to metal buildings, especially fully enclosed ones. Even with roll-up doors and windows, sometimes there’s not enough sunlight coming through. To rectify this, American Carports offers 2 different skylight sizes: 3×8 and 3×4. Whether you have a small mini-storage building or a big metal barn, you would always have the option to add skylights. Also, please note that skylights can only be installed in vertical siding roofs.

Besides of the features we offer to customize your metal building, you can always customize its size. Remember, all of the blogs and pictures we post are live examples of our customers’ creations. You can base your own ideas on those, or, if you really like a building, you can always build yours to match it. And with 13 different colors to choose from at no additional cost, you can add your own personal touch.

Take this 30’W x 51’L x 12’H metal garage as an example:

  • A-Frame Vertical Roof
  • Horizontal Sides & Ends
  • 3 – 10×10 Roll-Up Doors (2 on the front end, one on the back end)
  • 2 – Walk-In Doors
  • 8 – 3×8 Skylights

Our customer decided to add 8 skylights for illumination in addition to the light from the 3 roll-up doors. This garage is also rocking our clay and pewter gray colors!

You can place your order NOW! Give us a call and let one of our sales representatives assist you with any questions or concerns you might have. And don’t forget to ask about our financing options!

We got You Covered!

Posted on September 12, 2018 by - ACI, Blog, Buildings, Custom, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Still debating about getting a brand-new metal workshop for your toys? Don’t know exactly what you’re looking for? Get the right help in finding the right building for you.

Our metal workshops offer the protection, versatility, and durability that you need. We’re proud to say that all of our metal units are engineer-certified! This means that you won’t have to worry about your metal building not been able to withstand whatever is thrown at it.

It’s extremely recommendable to visit your local building department to get a permit before purchasing your metal unit; the local building department will tell you the exact requirements for your area. Whether your metal building needs to hold over 40 PSF snow loads or withstand winds of over 90 mph, American Carports will certify it.

This 30’W x 51’L x 12’H metal workshop is a perfect example of what we can do:

  • Fully Vertical
  • 3 – 10’x10′ Roll-Up Doors (on the side) .
  • 36″x80″ Walk-In Door (on the side)

Because this metal workshop is fully vertical, it allows natural elements such as dirt, water, and snow to slide off without the need for constant maintenance. Also, having your roll-up doors on the side can give you plenty of advantages when it comes to this type of building, since it’s cheaper to grow in length than in width.

You can customize your metal building, too! Give us a call and ask to speak with one of our sales representatives. The metal workshop of your dreams could be one call away!

Looking for a different style? Call us, and we will help you customize the metal building that suits you best. Financing available!

Add Value to Your Property with this Workshop!

Posted on September 10, 2018 by - ACI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

Need a new addition on your property? Want a better and bigger workshop?

Have you ever thought about having your own “man cave”? Or perhaps a workshop to work on your vehicles? If your answer to both questions is yes, it’s likely that your main concern about getting a workshop is the price. Metal buildings can range in price depending on the size and number of features added to the unit. Remember that we’re working to meet your expectations. If you’re on a budget, our experts will work with you until we design your perfect building.

So, what if you don’t have a concrete slab? Is your building going to be gone with the wind?

Our buildings don’t necessarily have to be installed on concrete slabs. Leveled surfaces like asphalt and regular ground are typically flat enough to install metal buildings. Additionally, our company offers mobile home and asphalt anchors to secure your metal building, so if you want to get our 90-mph wind warranty, we can still give it to you as long as your purchase all of the necessary anchors. However, keep in mind that any building that exceeds 30’ in width will be required to have a concrete slab.

Take a look at this beautiful metal workshop:

  • 30’W x 51’L x 12’H
  • A-Frame Vertical Roof
  • Horizontal Sides & Ends
  • 12’x12′ Roll-Up Door (front end)
  • 8’x7′ Roll-Up Door (front end)
  • 2 – Windows (one on each side)
  • 36″x72″ Walk-In Door (on the side)
  • Additional Trussing
  • Additional Hat Channels
  • Mobile Home Anchors

Disclaimer: Interior designs may vary by state or region. This metal workshop was installed in Colorado. Therefore, it was necessary to add extra trusses in order to meet local codes.

 

We’re here to help if you’re interested in the same style as the building described above, but if you want to change its dimensions, please give us a call. Let one of our experts help you customize the building of your dreams.

Simple Design, Same Strength

Posted on April 18, 2018 by - Blog

When it comes to protecting our belongings, we don’t all want something custom. As long as the metal structures provide shelter for them, we can be more than satisfied. Your traditional metal building with a roll-up door, a window, and a walk-in door can do this for you! Take a look at this 18’W x 21’L x 8’H example:
