Prefab garages are becoming more common, as people are taking steps to protect their vehicles, boats, and/or heavy machinery. As the weather changes, many people want to protect their cars and machinery from hurricanes, snow, heat, and damages that may occur while parked outside. Metal garages from Champion Buildings offer the perfect solution to protect your investment from weather and theft. Our steel garages are multi-functional and can provide benefits for people interested in using their garage for storage, metalworking, woodworking, and automobile repairs. Our metal garage prices are competitive, so you can get the most out of your space!
Made with Galvalume Steel
At Champion Buildings, our metal garages are made of galvalume steel that is coated with an alloy of 45% zinc and 55% aluminum to produce a durable rust-resistant finish. While similar to traditional galvanized steel, galvalume has slightly different characteristics that provide better resistance to corrosion and weathering. This material also generally contains up to 35% recycled steel for a more eco-friendly option.
The Benefits of a Metal Garage
There are a variety of benefits to having a metal garage, and they add valuable space for storage, workshop use, and more! Whether you want a metal garage for your property or business, our prefab building experts can help guide you to ensure your garage meets all your needs. Here are just a few benefits of prefab garages:
- You can choose a design or create a custom plan
- Metal buildings are durable and can handle winds up to 200 mph
- Easy to maintain
- Can construct metal garages quickly
- Are moveable
- Cost-effective
- Resistant to mold and water infiltration
- Resistant to termites
- Insurance friendly
Customization
A very good reason to buy a metal garage is the ability to customize it. You can add more doors and windows. For example, you can make the bays larger or smaller. Or, you can make it match other buildings on your property. There are many options for you to choose from so that the building is a custom-built structure.
Easy Maintenance
Unlike other types of buildings, you don’t need to do much to keep a metal garage looking new. You just need to inspect it regularly as you would any outside building. Perform simple tasks that can be done easily like keeping it clean, managing pests, and managing rain and snow.
Durability
The durability of a steel garage can’t be overstated. Metal buildings can stand up to the elements regardless of whether it is wind, hail, sleet, rain, or snow. Metal garages can last for decades. Their resistance to pests, mold, and fire put these structures heads above garages built of other materials such as wood.
Moveability
Metal garages can be taken down and moved to another location on your property or taken with you when you move. Because the buildings have a simple construction, they are easy to relocate.
Insurance Friendly
Because of the benefits (for example, durability) of metal garages, they are very insurable. Yes, their durability makes them less vulnerable to weather but you can still have a tree fall on your garage during heavy winds in hurricanes and tornadoes. You will find that a metal building is a significantly lower cost to insure than a frame or jointed masonry building.
Steel Garage Options
If you choose a standard option, you can choose from our pre-designed selections. This could be a one car garage, a two car garage, a carport, or even a garage-workshop space. We offer metal building specials for 30 x 40 metal buildings, 40 x 60 buildings, and 50 x 100 metal buildings. These are turnkey packages that include roll up doors, gutters, insulation, concrete, and erection! You will also have to ability to choose the color of your prefab garage, to ensure your new structure matches your property or business. If you would prefer a custom design, our team can create a plan for your metal garage at an affordable price to suit your needs and budget. This would include:
- A garage for a large number of vehicles
- Unusual vehicles, like an RV.
- We could even create a building for your small plane!
Metal vs. Wood
It is helpful to compare metal to wood when constructing an outside garage. While wood is an option, there are several negatives when compared to metal. Wood is vulnerable to termites and other pests that can feed on and damage the integrity of the foundation while metal is resistant to these. Wood buildings require frequent painting while metal does not. And, fire is also a big concern with wood buildings. Metal buildings are not only protected from fire on all four sides but also by the metal roof because there are no shingles that can catch fire. The International Building Code considers metal buildings to be non-combustible.
