Steel GARAGES
Roofing Styles
When ordering custom metal carports and garages , one major thing to consider is the roof style. We offer three roofing styles to meet your needs:
- Standard Roof. Our standard roof style is the most economical option. This style will give you the traditional carport style roof with curved sides.
- A-Frame (Horizontal). If you are looking for a residential-style, our A-frame roof style is a great choice for you. Our A-frame horizontal roof features a panel running from end to end.
- A-Frame (Vertical). We highly recommend that you upgrade to an A-frame vertical roof for units larger than 30 feet in length. Our sheet panels are 30 feet in length. With our A-frame vertical roof, however, our panels run from the peak of the structure toward the eaves, plus it is reinforced with channels. This roof style is ideal for places with snow loads. With vertical panels, snow and debris can slide off the roof easily without the constant need for maintenance.
Multi-Vehicle Options
We can create your metal garage in a size to best suit your needs—whether you need a single-car garage, two-car garage, or even a four or more car garage. No matter how many vehicles you own, we can create a reliable structure to keep them covered and protected from the elements.
Side Entries Possible
We can even to place garage doors on the long side.
It is also less expensive to increase the length of the unit than the width.
Metal BARNS
Metal Barns vs. Wooden Barns: A Smarter, Stronger Choice
When comparing metal barns vs. wooden barns, traditional wood barns have long been the standard. However, if you want the classic barn look—including the iconic red barn style—without the high maintenance and cost, a metal barn is the superior solution.
Modern steel barns offer the timeless appearance of a traditional barn while delivering better performance, durability, and value.
Why Choose a Metal Barn Over a Wooden Barn?
Cost-Effective Barn Solution
Metal barns are typically more affordable than wooden barns, saving you money on both materials and construction labor. This makes steel barns a smart investment for agricultural, storage, or commercial use.
Fully Customizable Metal Barns
Steel barns are highly customizable. You can easily design a barn to meet your exact needs—whether for equipment storage, livestock shelter, workshops, or agricultural use. Choose your size, layout, colors, doors, and add-ons.
Low Maintenance & Long-Term Savings
Unlike wooden barns, metal barns do not require constant upkeep. They eliminate the need for regular painting, staining, or repairs caused by weather exposure—saving you time and money year after year.
Superior Durability
Our metal barns are built to last, resisting rot, decay, termites, and insect damage that commonly affect wood structures. Steel barns also stand up better to harsh weather, wind, and sun exposure—especially important in Arizona conditions.
Add a Lean-To for Extra Space and Functionality
One of the biggest advantages of metal barns is the ability to easily add a lean-to or awning, expanding usable space while enhancing the classic barn appearance.
Benefits of Adding a Lean-To to Your Metal Barn
✔️ Additional Storage Space – Ideal for equipment, hay, feed, or vehicles
✔️ Open or Enclosed Options – Keep it open with a roof-only design or fully/partially enclose it
✔️ Custom Features Available – Add roll-up doors, walk-in doors, or windows for increased usability
✔️ Classic Barn Look – Maintains that traditional barn style with modern strength
Lean-tos are single-slope metal structures that attach seamlessly to your main barn, giving you flexibility, functionality, and more covered space at a lower cost than expanding the main building.
Upgrade to a Metal Barn Built to Last
If you’re searching for a durable, affordable, and customizable barn, a metal barn with optional lean-to additions is the best choice for long-term value.

Steel RV COVERS
Sizing Information
Recreational vehicles (RVs) come in a wide range of sizes, heights, and body styles, and added accessories such as air conditioners, antennas, ladders, and solar panels can significantly increase overall height and clearance needs. For this reason, accurate RV measurements are essential when choosing the correct RV carport or steel RV cover.
One of the most popular and commonly ordered sizes for steel RV carports is 12 feet wide by 12 feet tall, which fits many standard travel trailers and motorhomes. However, many Class A and larger RVs exceed 12 feet in height, requiring a custom-sized RV carport for proper clearance and long-term protection.
Custom RV Carports Built to Fit Your RV
At ShedsAZ, we offer custom RV carports and metal RV covers with heights up to 20 feet, ensuring a perfect fit for even the tallest RVs and motorcoaches.
✔️ Custom widths, lengths, and heights
✔️ Built for Arizona sun, wind, and weather
✔️ Protects your RV from UV damage, heat, and debris
✔️ Designed for long-term durability
⚠️ Important Installation Note:
RV carports with leg heights of 13 feet or taller require a telescoping forklift on-site
to assist with safe and proper installation.
Choosing the right RV carport protects your investment and extends the life of your RV. Our team will help you determine the correct RV carport size and design a structure that meets your needs and your property requirements.

14-Gauge vs. 12-Gauge
Durable Steel Carports, Garages, and Barns
All of our steel carports, garages, and barns are delivered and installed using 100% galvanized steel, which is highly resistant to pests and rust.
We offer steel framing in two options: 14-Gauge and 12-Gauge.
What Is Steel Gauge?
Steel gauge refers to the thickness of a metal sheet. As the gauge number increases, the thickness of the steel decreases; in other words, thickness is inversely related to gauge numbers.
Steel gauges are calculated based on a weight of 41.82 pounds per square foot per inch of thickness. For metal buildings, manufacturers typically provide 12-gauge and 14-gauge options, where 12-gauge is thicker than 14-gauge. Specifically, 12-gauge steel sheets measure 0.1084 inches thick, while 14-gauge metal sheets measure 0.0785 inches thick.
The 14-gauge tubular frame consists of 2 ½” x 2 ½” steel tubing, whereas the 12-gauge features - 2 ¼” x 2 ¼” steel tubing. Both gauge options (12-Gauge and 14-Gauge) are safe for use in metal carports, RV covers, garages, barns, and custom metal garages.
Difference Between Regular Steel and Galvanized Steel
Galvanized steel is essentially regular steel that has been coated with zinc to prevent rust and corrosion. Our metal buildings are designed for durability, making it crucial to ensure the steel can withstand rust, corrosion, and decay.
Regular steel is prone to rust, which compromises the structure's longevity and necessitates frequent painting to prolong its life.
Which Steel Gauge Framing Is Right For You?
12-gauge steel is superior to 14-gauge steel. However, be aware that choosing 12-gauge steel framing for your garage will incur an additional cost based on your location and building dimensions.
When compared to 14-gauge steel framing, 12-gauge offers several advantages:
- 30% thicker and more robust
- 20-year rust warranty
- Highly recommended for areas with heavy snowfall
Therefore, if you're seeking a more durable and certified steel garage that can endure harsh weather conditions—such as storms, heavy snowfall, rainfall, and high winds opting for tthe upgraded option 12-gauge steel is the right choice.
