Carports
The regular roof style is our most affordable option. The side edges of the regular roof style are rounded and the panels on the roof are horizontal. The boxed eave roof style uses a standard A-Frame style roof that has 6” of overhang. The boxed eave, like the regular roof style, is also designed using horizontal panels. The vertical roof style also has a 6” overhang on the roof like the boxed eave, but the panels run vertically on the roof. The clear advantage of this roof style is that rain and snow will have a much easier time sliding off.
• What size concrete pad would I need?We recommend pouring concrete and additional 6” all the way around the building. Therefore, if you wanted to purchase a 20’ x 20’ building, we would suggest your concrete pad be 21’ x 21’. By doing this, you allow the concrete anchors to be installed a little farther in from the edge of the concrete. Please consult with your concrete company regarding this before you pour.
• What is the Max Steel Buildings warranty like?On all buildings, from the date of installation, there is a 90 day workmanship warranty as well as a 20 year limited warranty on rust through of metal panels and steel tubing assuming normal user care and maintenance.
• What is a “certified” building?A certified carport, or any other type of building we offer, is a building that is offers premier design and the highest quality. Certified buildings can withstand 90 – 130 mph winds as well as 20 to 30 PSF ground snow loads. If you purchase a certified building, engineer stamped drawings are available should your local municipality call for that.
• How can I pay for my metal structure?We accept personal checks, cashier’s checks, and most major credit cards. On a cash sale, 10% of the pre-tax purchase price will be due upon signing the sale contract. Again…this 10% can be paid with personal check, cashier’s check or a major credit card. The balance will be due upon completion of the structure. We also offer a convenient Rent-to-Own option on our carports for a term of either 36 months or 48 months. On the RTO option, a 10% security deposit PLUS your 1st month’s rent will be due at signing of the RTO contract. The balance would be financed and paid directly to the RTO company who have your contract with.
• What color options do I have on the metal?There are 14 different color options that come standard with every purchase. There are other color options that are offered for an additional fee.
