Roof Extensions and Overhangs

Extensions can improve the appearance of a building but will cost more. Roof extensions add "curb-appeal" to some buildings, but will take more time to complete the erection of the building because of the amount of extra covering trim. Extensions can also help a building merge in better in an environment of conventionally constructed buildings in commercial areas. An overhang offers you some protection from the rain and shade from the sun. These options can be important when you receive many visitors to your building, by offering shelter from the elements.

We offer two types of roof extensions: (1) Gable Extensions for endwalls (2) Eave Extensions for sidewalls. Using our system, you can easily and quickly design and price buildings with overhangs up to 5' on any or all of the walls. When in the Building Accessories section select Roof Extensions.

Steel Buildings vs. Conventional Construction

A great advantage of pre-engineered buildings is that they can be relocated if required. Since your building is shipped to you with a complete set of instructions, detailed engineering drawings and a shipping list, you can erect you steel building without consulting a construction company. This also means that should you someday decide to relocate, you can take down your building and erect it elsewhere.

Adding partition walls in a steel building allows one building to be a meeting room, or office and storage facility and another to be a restaurant. Building with steel gives you the ultimate in design flexibility. You can either own one outright or purchase a steel building to rent to others. Your one time cost is regained sooner rather than later when you rent it as mini storage or public meeting space. Steel buildings can be designed with a almost unlimited amount of options.

If you have a need for a new building, don't make a decision until you have explored your options with a qualified steel building manufacturer. The Steel Building Network has reviewed a wide range of manufacturers, suppliers and building industry professionals, and we know that no matter what your intended use, there is steel building system to suit your needs. Getting I contact with the right company to get your questions answered is the first step in having your building needs met.

Pre Engineered Metal Building

A pre engineered metal building is the obvious choice for a church or other type of meeting place. You may have noticed these structures since they are quickly becoming the "standard" in constructions methods. When you are looking for a cost effective way to meet your building needs, you should certainly think about a steel building. A pre-engineered metal building takes the risk out of putting yourself and your organization into debt. It is easy to identify the advantages in a pre-engineered metal building.

You could delay development for years while you line up funding, but why? Some choose to rent space from other property owners in lieu of the responsibility of new construction. The problem with this situation is you only have access to your meeting place around someone else's schedule. After taking into account and dismissing these ideas, take some time to think about talking to a steel metal building manufacturer.

As property and construction capital become harder to obtain, new solutions become ever more imperative. A pre-engineered metal building may perhaps not be part of the dream you have held for your club, association or church, however that shouldn't stop you. Some of the greatest things come in unlikely packages and we sometimes miss out when we disregard them too quickly.

Temperature Control

Your geographic area will, to a great extent, influence the type of insulation that will provide the best performance. If you live in a mild climate and your building is used for farm equipment storage, insulation may not be necessary. If you are planning to have employees working in a building, you should probably install insulation, particularly in areas where temperatures are extreme. Energy savings will quickly pay for insulation if the building will be climate controlled.

Storage Buildings

It almost appears that almost every, home and garage is bursting at the seams. Surplus or unneeded equipment, furniture or other belongings clutter closets, attics and garages. But, the option of monthly storage fees does seem like a hefty price to pay just to hold on to the things you have.

Self-storage buildings are an easy way to put your money in someone else's pocket. Holiday decorations, childhood keepsakes and files all need to be retained for different reasons, but the cost of storage is a burden. Owning your own storage buildings is one way to lessen the expense of personal storage with a one-time quality investment.

The exciting thing about steel frame storage buildings is that you only buy them once. Mini storage is not as friendly you pay and pay, but you never own anything but the contents you placed in them. You may think that you don't need something as permanent as owning a personal storage building. But think about it - when are you going to let go of the things you have decided to save?
