Tube steel. Red iron is to expensive. I know its better to buy outright but sometimes you can't. A garage like Carolina Carport or similar is what I'll be getting. I have the concrete guy line up already. Thanks for the replies. I'll check Carolina, and Alans too.

Thanks!

Trying to figure out which metal building company is the best for the money. Including financing, and installation. I'm now retired at 55 by disability. I can do a little but I have to take it easy, so I been wanting a small garage with room for a lift. I will be staring dirt work soon, and have...

Thanks everyone. A lot to think about. I really want the two separate doors but I know 24' is not a lot of room for two 8' doors. I'll keep thinking, looks more like the 16' though. Thanks again for the help. Especially the pics.

Gonna start building an attached garage this fall. It will be 28' deep by 24' wide with 10' walls. This is all I can fit on my lot. Just trying to figure out the door sizes. It's going to be attached, but not an entry into the house. The biggest vehicles I have are 2007 Chevy Silverado, 1979...

Well I don 't have to worry about code. So I'll just put it behind the insulation.

Hey guys don't have garage yet. Starting with a 12x16 building to store my tools and work on my gravely tractors. The building is dried in now ready to wire. One quick question. Should the wiring go in front of the insulation or behind it, or does it matter?

Never seen a carport with an open roof. Kinda defeats the purpose!

Re: Convert Home Depot's 2-story storage blding for Cabin? Also I'm almost done with a 12 x 16 dried in for less than 2000.00 Colred metal roof and walls, 2x6 floor joists on 16" centers, 2x4 walls on 16" centers. All I need now is to insulate, wire, and finish the inside.

Re: Convert Home Depot's 2-story storage blding for Cabin? Thought about it alot. If I had the money it would have done been done. You could build it yourself a little cheaper, but not by much. Remember when you buy it they will deliver it. You'll have to have the lumber delivered and build it...

I hate to say it, but I saw a great storage idea at Toys R Us the other day. They had their layaways in big cloth bags hung from the ceiling trusses. The peoples name was on the outside on a big tag. When somene came to pick one up they would get a ladder out and get it down. It was really a...

We have a brand at work with interchangeable letters for branding OTR tires with serial numbers. I would think as long as you don't get carried away with the heat youl'd be allright.

Is it possible to have two 10' wide doors on the 24' end of a pole barn? I know its not a lot of room but will it work? I'm looking to have a 24'X36' put up soon and wanted to hopefully see some pics to better visualize it. The main reason is I know 36' won't fit width wise. I want one bay free...

Here in Va. we have a yearly inspection. It does generate revenue but I still think its fine. They check all your lights, tires, horn wipers, brake pads, and jack up the car to check your wheel bearings. Depending on which garage it could be a pain. Like someone above said most people don't have...

Yeah a Geo Metro gets 40 mpg too. The gas mileage thing doesn't have much merit. The difference in mileage between hybrids and non hybrids isn't enough for the price difference. You'll never reach 55 mph up and down where we live, also you can't really haul your coal home in a civic. Just sayin'
