Height for the steel carport varies from 9 feet to 15 feet depending on the width and length of the selected carport. SteelMaster also offers carports that are completely customizable to a customer’s specific needs.
1. Steel Carport Unlike all the Rest
In almost every town self storage units can be found for those who are looking. While the
buildings themselves typically appear to look basically the same, Joan Lucas of Denver, CO
knows that just because you’ve seen one self storage unit, doesn’t mean you’ve seen them
all. Differences abound, and include the way the buildings are constructed, what materials
are used, and the quality of those materials. The same can be said about carports.
As the past president of the Colorado Self Storage Association, Lucas is aware of the
importance of building any structure with an appropriate, sturdy, durable material. When
she decided to add a carport to her home driveway six months ago, she set about
researching which company delivers the best product and decided upon SteelMaster
Buildings in Virginia Beach, VA. What follows is a Q & A with Lucas where she explains the
Who, What, Where, and Why’s of her newly built carport.
Why did you feel like you needed/wanted a carport?
I was tired of shoveling snow off of our cars.
How many vehicles do you have that you park under the carport?
We have two vehicles, but only park one under the carport.
What led you to buy a carport from SteelMaster Buildings in Virginia Beach, VA?
Since I work in the self storage industry, I asked some of the suppliers which companies
were good.
Did you put the carport up yourself or hire someone to do it?
I hired a contractor.
How long did it take for the contractor to complete the carport?
It was finished within one week of when he started construction.
How has your experience been with the carport?
Excellent.
Is there one particular instance that stands out in your mind where you were
happy that you decided to add a carport?
As soon as we put my car under it the first night!
How was your experience working with SteelMaster?
Excellent – Truly Excellent!
According to Michelle Wickum, the director of marketing for SteelMaster Buildings,
excellence is the standard the company works diligently to maintain. “SteelMaster Buildings
2. has been in business for 28 years, and during that time we have amassed more than
40,000 satisfied customers, including buildings located in every state in the United States,
on six continents, and in more than 40 overseas countries,” says Wickum. “Our customers
deserve the best that steel has to offer, and that is what we deliver.”
Wickum says that the SteelMaster carport is unique to other carports on the market due to
its ability to withstand all climate weather conditions while utilizing technology and the
simplicity of the design perfected with the company’s buildings. Their carport features a
clear-span, single radius, low-profile arched structure that is supported by a 14 gauge
beams and posts system and is available in sizes from 12 feet wide up to 20 feet wide and
18 feet to 40 feet in length. Height for the steel carport varies from 9 feet to 15 feet
depending on the width and length of the selected carport. SteelMaster also offers carports
that are completely customizable to a customer’s specific needs. In addition, SteelMaster
buildings and carports never have to be treated, painted, or maintained due to a Galvalume
Plus coating.
The SteelMaster standard carport has been used for traditional application such as car
shelter, truck covers, RV and tractor coverage, and farm equipment protection. However,
the company has designed steel carports for a variety of custom applications including bus
stops, tram covers, smoke shacks, metal walkway, and boat lifts.
