What is an A-Frame Metal Building?

The “A” model or A-frame metal building has a very conventional appearance with its straight sides and peaked roof. While it lends itself to a variety of uses, it was developed especially to blend in more easily in residential areas for use as backyard garages, workshops, and small businesses.

Benefits of A Style Steel Building:

  • More conventional in appearance with straight sides and a peaked roof.

  • Steel is recyclable, and many steel components can contain recycled content depending on supply.

  • Available in standard sizes that range from 16′ (4.87m) to 40′ (12.46m) wide, with varying center heights and unlimited lengths.

  • Prefabricated components streamline the build process and make installation more straightforward than many traditional builds.

  • Steel resists common issues like rot and pests and maintains structural stability over time.

  • A prefab steel kit can reduce overall project complexity and ongoing maintenance compared to many conventional construction methods.
