I looked at and spoke to dozens of manufacturers before I found Alan’s. He had the fairest price by far, the building I was looking for, and made it easy buy. Thanks
This will be my third building from Alan’s. They are great. It may take two months to get your building but it’s worth the wait when necessary. Very good quality, installed exactly as desired.
We enjoyed being able to build our building the way we wanted. Liked knowing how much it was going to cost, no hidden fees. We liked that we could build this in the privacy of our home. It was delivered in the time that they allowed for delivery. Our overall experience was great.
Everything was just as expected. The buildings look great. The installation crew were very fast and efficient in their assembly and were nice. Very pleased with the entire experience.
Wonderful folks to work with. Helped out whenever I needed it.
[Web]site made picking out my building simple. The 3D garage builder was great for getting an idea of how it would look. All of my questions were pretty much answered on the Q&A from the site. I was getting updates from sales people along the way and got any questions I had taken care of. I highly recommend Alan’s Factory Outlet for your metal building needs.
I am really happy with my metal Building from Alan’s Factory Outlet. After shopping around I found that Alan’s had the best product for the best price. The build your own building program on the website was easy to navigate. After purchase I was contacted by the Alan’s team to verify the details. They were courteous and very helpful, they wanted to ensure the details were right. Once delivery was set up the building was fully erected in about 12 hours. I love my new building

A Guided Tour Inside Your Metal Building
Here is a quick look inside the high-quality metal building you will get from Alan’s Factory Outlet.
Sturdy Steel Framing
Your metal building will be made from premium steel studs. You can choose between 14-gauge framing, which is suitable for general-purpose buildings, or heavy-duty 12-gauge framing. The 12-gauge steel framing provides additional strength for withstanding severe weather and comes with a 20-year rust-through warranty. A well-maintained metal building can last for well over 50 years, so if you’re planning on using your building for decades to come, the 12-gauge framing is a good investment.
Our extra-wide buildings require sturdy steel trusses in order to safely bridge the wide open span of the buildings without any columns. Below is a visual comparison of the framing of a building up to 30-feet wide (left), vs the framing of a building more than 30-feet wide (right):
Below is a photo of the frame of a 60-foot-wide building before the roofing and siding have been installed.
Durable Roofing
For roofing, you can choose between 29-gauge steel panels or thicker, commercial-grade 26-gauge panels. The 29-gauge sheeting is suitable for buildings in mild climates. The 26-gauge sheeting is ideal for areas that regularly get snow or harsh weather, and for customers who want to maximize the lifespan of their building.
Large buildings always come with a premium vertical roof. If you are purchasing a small building and need to save money, we also have two other roof styles which are less expensive but require more maintenance to keep clean.
Classy Siding
The siding of your building will be made from the same gauge of steel panels as the roofing. You can choose between horizontal and vertical siding, depending on which style looks better to you.
Garage Doors, Walk-in Doors, and Windows
We have a variety of roll-up garage doors available from 6’x6’ up to 16’x16’ in size. Chain hoists are also available. If you want an electric garage door opener, you can add a chain-drive garage door opener after the garage is installed.
For easy entry for people, we offer two styles of walk-in doors: one with a window, and one without. We also have two different styles of windows available.
Frame Outs and Lean-Tos
If you want to install your own garage doors, walk-in doors, or windows, we can do custom frame-outs for a small fee.
We are also able to add custom lean-tos on either side of your main structure.
For any customizations that aren’t available in our 3D builder, just call or email our friendly building specialists to discuss options and pricing.
Insulation
You have three options for insulation:
- No insulation
- Double-bubble insulation to control condensation
- R-17 insulation for temperature and moisture control
Gutters
Most customers don’t need gutters on their metal buildings. If you want to add gutters after installation, you can contact a local gutter professional for details.
Color Options
You can choose between a wide selection of colors for your roof, trim, and siding. We also offer a two-tone (wainscot) option on the siding if you want a different color on the lower portion of your sides for a classy look.
Other Building Components
If you need information on any other part of your metal building, use our Building Components Visualizer.
Concrete Slab Size and Cost
Most metal buildings are installed on a concrete slab. Unfortunately, we are not able to have the foundation installed for you. You will need to prepare the foundation of your building before installation can be scheduled. Your local planning or building department will be able to let you know the foundation requirements for metal buildings in your area.
In most areas, your slab will be slightly larger than your metal building. You can use our concrete pad size calculator to determine the correct pad size for your location. If an extra ledge is required in your area, the ledge can be sloped or lowered to prevent water from pooling next to the base rail of your building.
In most areas, it will cost at least $8 per square foot to have a concrete foundation for a small metal building poured. For larger metal buildings, the cost per square foot will probably be $4 to $10 per square foot. You can also save a lot of money by pouring the foundation yourself (if you know how) since concrete is fairly inexpensive.
Payment, Scheduling, and Financing
Deposit
After you customize and price your building, you can order your building by paying a deposit of 16-17%. This deposit is fully refundable up until your building is delivered. If you want to cancel for any reason, my friendly support staff will give you a prompt refund.
Scheduling
If you need standard pre-engineered building plans to get a building permit, we can provide those within a few days. Once you have your building permit and foundation ready, you’ll contact us to let us know you are ready for your installation to be scheduled.
Payment
You will get a call about a week before your delivery date to let you know when your building will be installed. If the cost of your building is more than $15,000 you will need to pay 50% of the balance at that time. Otherwise, the full balance will be due when your building has been installed.
Credit Cards
Your deposit can be paid by credit card. The balance can also be paid by credit card if you want, but a 2.5% processing fee will be added. You can avoid this fee by paying the balance with a cashier’s check or money order.
Local Taxes
The installers must be licensed and insured in every state we service, and local taxes must be collected where applicable. Sorry!
Financing Options
We don’t offer financing, but our financing guide mentions several financing options that might work for you.
