The Facts on Storage Buildings

Are you in need of more space? Storage buildings are a great option for extra storage! You may have limited room in your attic, basement, or garage and are unable to actually add on additional rooms to your home so why not consider a storage building?  Storage buildings are a useful and affordable solution for those who do not want to get rid of their belongings.

Storage space is a common need for many families, even for individuals. Commercialized storage serves as a solution, but this option can be costly and inconvenient; who wants to travel all the way to a commercial storage site in order to retrieve items when needed?

Isn’t it time for a change from your wood garage?

Steel garages have come a long way in the past years and are changing the minds of most home owners that do not already have built-in garages. Unlike most steel garages, Keen’s has the option to allow you to customize your next garage, allowing it to have a personal touch and match your established home.

More importantly, Keen’s steel garages come with a quality and strength like none other. Before steel garages came about, we only had one option to contact a designer to create a wood garage from scratch. Although these wood garages were totally customizable, they came with a lot of cons such as production time, money spent verses home value, weather challenges and termite infestations.  Then as time pasted and the popularity of steel garages came about, most consumers realized that the benefits of a steel garage exceeded those of a wood garage except they all looked the same.

Some things to take note with Keen’s steel garages are that they will be:

  • Termite proof
  • Water-Resistant
  • Ideal for all weather
  • Not highly flammable as wood is

 

With Keen’s steel Garages, you not only get the high quality production of the steel and all of its benefits but you are able to do something most cannot with their steel garage; personalize.

Choose Siding for Your New Storage Building

A storage building is a useful property implementation.  It can be used for storing tools, doing craftwork, housing lawn equipment, and more.  We provide our customers with several options in regard to the siding of their storage buildings.  Read about our exterior siding options.

T1-11

This choice features a natural wood-grained look.  The choice is celebrated by those who enjoy the emulation of a small wood cabin.  T1-11 was once the most popular choice, but other innovations have taken shape and some of the popularity away from it.  However, those who desire a more natural look still decide on our T1-11 siding.

Hardi-Plank

Green products are popular as more people become concerned about the environment and their own contributions to a green planet.  Hardi-Plank siding is an alternative to other traditional options.  Hardi-Plank or fiber cement siding is a composite material associated with the green movement; implementation of the material saves endangered trees and does not release harmful chemicals into the environment.  The new-age siding material closely resembles wood when implemented on your storage building.

29-Gauge Steel Panels

29-gauge steel is the most durable choice of siding for your storage building.  This steel siding will last a lifetime and the color options provide the opportunity to match the look of your house.  Steel storage buildings can be purchased as certified or non-certified for wind speed and snow load requirements.

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl siding has grown in popularity over the years. Storage building owners like the material due to low maintenance and economic pricing.  Our storage buildings feature vinyl siding installed over OSB (oriented stand board) for strength and endurance purposes.  This choice of siding will not flake or rot.  Like steel siding, vinyl siding is available in an array of colors.

Is It Time for a Storage Shed?

Is it time for a storage shed? Do you have a clutter of things in your garage or around the side of your house? Do you hesitate to make new tool and garden purchases because you have no place for them? If this sounds all too familiar then it may be time for a storage shed.  To start, maybe you need to think of the uses for a storage shed. You can use a shed to store just about anything. Use one to store tools, garden supplies, sporting equipment, small tractors, motorcycles, etc. In addition, you can use a storage shed for hobbies such as making art. Do the kids need a playroom? The shed can become a clubhouse for them.

Secondly, you need to survey how much space you have to establish your outdoor shed. If you want to store something large such as a tractor or lawn equipment, you’ll want to be sure that the shed offers dimensions to house such items. If you want your shed to serve multiple functions, then maybe it would be best to purchase a larger one if you have the room to spare.  Sheds are offered in different materials. Choose from metal, wood, and vinyl sheds. Depending on preference, your geographic location, and the money you are willing to spend, you may decide one type of material is better than the others. Each type offers its advantages and disadvantages.

There are a lot of additions and extras you can implement such as windows, ventilation, and ramps. Your needed extras may depend on what purposes you will address with your shed. It is better to decide on the extras before you purchase the storage shed rather than attempt to implement them after the purchase.

Some people think that it is cheaper to build their own shed. This is not advised unless you are highly skilled. Even if you are handy, it may be difficult to duplicate the craftsmanship that is associated with professionally-built sheds.

Why We Build Steel Carports

Over the past few decades, steel carports and buildings have grown in popularity. Today’s economic climate and the concerted effort on the part of homeowners and the construction industry to adopt more environmentally sensitive products and methods make steel carports and steel buildings even more desirable.

Metal and steel construction is becoming an increasingly popular choice for warehouses, churches, gyms, community centers, schools, retail outlets, sports and riding arenas, livestock barns, storage facilities, airplane hangars, even homes. And Realtors nationwide say that a steel carport can significantly boost your property’s value.

Quality carports of any type construction are property value boosters. They offer homeowners protection for their cars, trucks, RVs, boats and other vehicles, whether an enclosed carport or open carport configuration. Enclosed steel carports can be used in an endless variety of fashions, from simple storage buildings to decorated kids’ playrooms, professionally outfitted automotive and wood workshops to decked-out man caves. With the right insulation and soundproofing, you can even turn your enclosed steel carport into a working music recording and mixing studio.

Steel carports by Keen’s Buildings are constructed with heavy-duty 29-gauge standard steel panels and 14-gauge standard steel tubular framing. We use steel because it’s durable, environmentally friendly, attractive and economical. A certified steel carport is guaranteed to withstand heavy snow loads and wind speeds of 110mph and 130mph to meet all city, county and state building code and permitting requirements. It’s not at the mercy of wood boring pests like termites, and it’s resistant to mold and mildew growth. And at the end of its usable life, it’s 100% recyclable.

Steel carports are cost effective, too. On average, building a steel carport will cost you 40% to 50% less than more conventional construction materials and methods. Despite the savings, installation of an open or enclosed steel carport will increase your property’s resale value and prompt a quicker sale, according to Realtors.
