MASS PRODUCTION MEANS SAVINGS TO YOU.
Engineered for your area as a free standing and self supporting structure. Structures are designed for wind and snow load requirements in various parts of the United States.
Framing and deep-rib roof deck are of cold-formed, galvanized steel which gives extra strength and makes your carport/shelter maintenance free.
Durability is assured as the panels are manufactured from sheet steel with a galvanized coating of the highest purity zinc - 1.25 ounce per square foot average is guaranteed.
Square columns are galvanized with a high-purity zinc coating of 2.00 ounces per square foot.
Field painting eliminated: No job site painting is necessary because the panels are pre-painted! The baked-on enamel finish is mill applied to the galvanized steel while it is in coil form. This provides a finish that is uniform in color, gloss, texture and thickness. Paint-adhesion and maximum durability is insured.
The baked-on mill finish adds eye appeal to any structure. The finish lasts for years and years without maintenance.
Easy erection with no costly job site welding - the framing screws together and roof panels fasten to frame with self-drilling screws!
