Steel Carports are the environmentally friendly option!

Steel is the backbone of American infrastructure and engineering. Towering skyscrapers and colossal metal warehouse and factories are the underpinnings of our robust economy. Have you ever noticed how quickly your order from Amazon arrives at your home? Steel has a trickle-down effect, and this power building block of society affects every part of our daily lives. Mammoth steel buildings scattered across the nation allow companies to inventory an absurd amount of goods and products, so you never have to wait for than a few days to get your most recent purchases. Without steel, deliveries would slow to a sluggish and befuddled haphazard crawl to our mailboxes. Sturdy bridges and powerful electrical substations also rely on steel, and don’t even get us started on the primary building material of your car! But steel also has some micro applications that you probably take for granted until disaster strikes.

The True Benefits of Steel

Before the advent of steel and alloy metals, wood was the primary building source and remains a go-to alternative for residential housing that doesn’t need a whole lot of extra support like commercial enterprises. Wood was also sourced for barns to protect wagons (the primary mode of transportation at the time) and livestock from the elements and even thieves. But wood comes with several drawbacks. Just one errant spark can send a once sturdy wooden barn or shed into a fiery inferno. Early wooden garage fires were once so common that owners chose to have them detached and set further back from the house to prevent an entire estate from going up in flames. Wood is also susceptible to mold and mildew. Unlike solid steel panel construction offered at EZ Carports, wooden slot barns are also more likely to let extra cold air in, which can quickly run up your electric bill as you try to maintain optimal internal temperatures.

Is Steel the True Evergreen Building Material?

Unlike wood, vinyl and plastic siding, steel will last for decades and has very little if any upkeep. Considering that you would possibly go through two or three wooden sheds or barns in the same amount of time of one single metal building, it’s not a stretch of the imagination to say that a steel building lessens the environmental impact on your planet. Steel buildings are also easier to insulate and are potentially less porous than other building materials, so you could lessen the strain on our electrical grids if you aren’t having to crank up the AC every few minutes. Steel metal garages will also extend the life of your car. Impenetrable metal buildings will keep your car from going downhill in maintenance. A well-maintained vehicle will get better gas mileage and you will be doing your part to minimize your carbon footprint on the planet. This will also mean you won’t buy a new car as quickly as you would without steel protection, further lessening the environmental strain. Steel is also 100 percent recyclable and can be used again.

Superior Weather Resistance

Steel is manufactured to withstand whatever Mother Nature throws its way. Our superior engineered steel panels can withstand hurricane force winds and blizzard conditions. EZ Carport could also protect your car and belongings from monstrous hailstorms and wind-blown debris, extending the life of your car. Collapsed carports are an all-too-common occurrence in snow prone areas. When purchasing a new metal building, some customers will go the cheaper route and forego reinforced hat channeling bracket and buy an inferior building from a third-party roadside hawker. EZ Carports build each customized order to your exact specifications. Our experienced engineers and building advisors are with you every step of the way. We will also make sure your steel metal carport meets all local building codes and requirements.

Seamless Design and Installation         

EZ Carports didn’t invent the steel metal carport, but we did optimize it with a seamless design that uses less parts than traditional clunky buildings. Steel sheeting and paneling is also lighter than wood and other building materials while not sacrificing strength and structural integrity. Steel carports also minimize wasted space since metal buildings don’t have to rely on cross beams and extra trusses for interior support. Carports are also easier to install. All it takes is a few hand tools and a couple of willing volunteers to install a customized carport.
