You should give prefabricated metal buildings a look if you are considering an expansion of your workshop or storage space. Prefabricated metal buildings are versatile, easily assembled, affordable and constructed from materials strong enough to withstand the harshest weather conditions.
S series prefabricated metal buildings work wonderfully as large workshops or garages. The high sidewalls, rounded roof and beamless support characteristic of this design make it quite popular for use as garages, workshops and storage buildings. You can assemble an S series prefabricated metal building large enough to house your RV or boat or 18 wheeler, if you drive truck for a living. Some fire departments even utilize S series prefabricated metal buildings as fire stations. Commercial and industrial shop owners like the design for its capacity to house small industrial and manufacturing operations.
Check out the P series of prefabricated metal buildings if you are looking for smaller, more personal space. The P series design offers high sidewalls and arched roof ideal for housing your car or backyard workshop and can be customized to match your homes exterior. Believe it or not, people even use them for guest cottages. Similar to the P series, the A series of prefabricated metal buildings sports a roof having a 4 to 12 pitch that resists heavy snow buildup.
Then, there is the Q series prefabricated metal building that is modeled after the Quonset huts that were used during World War II. The huts were developed to house troops and equipment while in the field and became so popular with servicemen that many purchased the surplus huts after the war for their personal housing. Universities also purchased some of the surplus for overflow student housing.
Prefabricated metal buildings are not hard to assemble. Kits come with an easy to follow manual of instructions for completion of your prefabricated metal building in less than a week. Laying the foundation is the longest step in the process. Once you have laid either concrete beam supports or a full concrete floor, the rest is a matter of assembling the beams, rafters and metal sides and roof and customizing with doors and windows, wiring and insulation.
