How Much is a Metal Garage?

A metal garage is a carport built with metal framing and covered with asphalt, concrete, or some other weather-resistant surface. Metal garages are very popular because they are cheap to install and easy to repair. Building codes allowing their installation as an attendant feature on most new homes have made them very in demand at the time they were installed.

But today, metal carports are making a comeback because they are so ingenious and versatile!

Metal garage use

Here are just a few of the things you can do with a metal garage:

  1. Use it as an extension of your house. Cover it with siding and put a roof on it. Then you have a very lovely, low-maintenance, little house that will be perfect for you and your family.
  2. Use it to store your boat or other vehicles which require dry storage.
  3. You can use it as storage for some of your important items. 
  4. You can use it as a shop or welding center or whatever else you need a place to work.
  5. Use it to protect your vehicle from the weather. Not only is it cheap and easy to repair, but it is also very effective if used properly.

The main reason homeowners would want a metal garage is because it offers excellent safety features. The floor joists are extremely strong, and the entire structure is very lightweight. In fact, a metal garage weighs only about one-third as much as a wooden garage of equal size.
