Advantages of Metal Garages

Steel garages are superior to buildings made with wood or other materials for several reasons:

• Need Less Maintenance – Metal is easier to clean and requires less maintenance than buildings made from other materials. And since the color is infused into the metal during fabrication, you won’t have the same fading or paint-peeling issues that you’ll face with a wooden garage.
• More Durable – Metal garages don’t rot like wood and can stand up to constant use and weather challenges including high winds, heavy rains, snow, and lightning, and they’re also more earthquake-resistant. The metal paneling is coated with aluminum or zinc compounds to help prevent rust and prolong panel life.
• Resistant to Both Pests and Fire – Steel is impervious to termites, critters, and pests, and it doesn’t harbor mold or mildew. Steel is also much more fire-resistant than wood.
• Completely Customizable – The versatility of steel for building design allows for more clear-span interior space and customization options, too. It’s also easier to expand or adapt your metal garage as your needs grow or change.
• Cheaper to Insure – Thanks to the superior strength, durability, and fire resistance of a metal garage, your insurance costs may actually go down if you choose a steel building over other options. That’s another cost benefit you get by choosing a structure from American Metal Structures!
• Easy to Install & Environmentally Friendly – Metal garages require less time, labor, and energy resources to install than do stick-builds or other options. Another nice feature of our buildings is that the steel components we use are almost 100% recyclable!

Steel Garage Applications and Uses

One of the first things you need to decide when choosing a steel garage is how you plan to use your structure. Consider how much space you’ll need to accommodate your vehicles and anything else you’d like to store – factor in the length, width, and height of the items you plan to shelter. We recommend you allow for extra space to include vehicle or equipment additions in the future. We can custom build in any size to fit your needs. What can you do with a metal garage? It would be better to ask what CAN’T you do with a metal garage! Here are just a few of the ways we’ve seen customers use their garage buildings:

• Vehicle Storage –This one may go without saying, but you can use a metal garage building to store more than just a car or truck. We can help you custom design a garage to house everything from cars to trucks to motorcycles to RVs to ATVs to boats to buses to campers to trailers to tractors to combine harvesters!
• Personal Gym or Fitness Center – You don’t get a body that looks this good without putting in some work! And if you’re tired of paying membership dues to a gym you hardly visit, maybe it’s time to create some fitness space in your backyard that you can actually use without having to drive across town. We can help with that!
• Man Caves and She Sheds – Maybe you need some dedicated space to work on a hobby, or maybe you just need a place you can get away and hang out with some close friends. A custom-designed steel garage from American Metal Structures is just the ticket!
• Auto Repair Shop or Retail Space – A garage isn’t just a place to keep cars; a garage is also a place where you should be able to work on cars. We’ve helped many customers get just the space they need for both residential and commercial auto shop applications. A metal garage can easily be customized for use as a storefront or retail space, too!
• Commercial Storage – Need a place to store commercial or industrial equipment? We can do that!
• Manufacturing Facility – Perhaps you don’t just need to store old materials; you need a facility where you have the space to fabricate some new materials, too! Not a problem. We’ve worked with many residential, commercial, and industrial partners to provide custom garage facilities for all sorts of dedicated uses.
• And More – From carports to garages to hobby shops to workshops to barns to agricultural buildings to warehouses, we’ve done it all, and we can help you to get your perfect steel structure solution, too!
