![]() One product that serves every season in Oklahoma is an All Steel carport! Nobody likes scraping ice off of their windshield first thing in the morning, nor do they want to burn their hands or rear end on the blazing hot interior. A carport is a solution to this problem! Springtime in Oklahoma brings possibly the greatest threat to vehicles that are not parked under a cover……. H A I L! Even the smallest hail can cause a ton of damage in a short amount of time. In 2014 State Farm statics show that 33,790 claims were made for hail damage with 2.4 billion being paid out in claims. YIKES! All Steel offers many carport options. From a single carport, starting at $995.00, to covers large enough for each family member’s car, up to 30’x51’. Need something larger than that? No problem, ask about our Truss style buildings. Regular (rounded) roof and A-Frame roof styles are available for carports under 36’ long. If you wish to have a building longer than 36’ it is recommended to go with an A-Frame Vertical roof. Some customers prefer the A-Frame Vertical roof for buildings smaller than 36’ in length. Automobiles are not the only thing we cover! We sell just as many RV and tractor covers as we do carports! With heights up to 16’, we are able to cover just about anything! Many customers choose to enclose one end and/or partially enclose the sides. We are happy to customize your building to fit your needs. “Cowports” (yes, you read that right!) are very popular too! Have you ever seen a carport in the middle of the field and thought that it was an odd placement? Farmers have found that a simple carport, with proper anchors and supports, can serve as shade and relief from brutal Oklahoma weather. Proper Anchors and supports are the keys to your building frame lasting for many years in the Oklahoma wind. The type of anchors you will need depend on the ground you will place your building on. Standard, free, anchors are included with the purchase of any All Steel carport. Concrete and asphalt anchors are available if this is the type of floor your building will have. Mobile home anchors are recommended for any building that will be installed on grass, dirt, or rock. For added protection, and a 20-year wind warranty on the frame of the building, our customers can combine the suggested anchors, 3’ braces, and supports. Supports are bolted to the frame and buried 3’ deep, with a seventy-pound bag of cement. In Oklahoma, we know one thing about the wind…. It comes sweeping down the plains! Supports are highly recommended! Our sales staff are always happy to answer any questions you may have. Stop by one of our five locations, or give us a call, for a quote! Leave a Reply. |
