Buying a Metal Garage on Alan’s – Step by Step
Metal garage buildings are great for workshops or extra storage space for anything from farm equipment to arts and crafts.
We offer a wide variety of metal garages, each backed by a one-year workmanship warranty from the installation date.
Buying one is simple. You can do it online with our user-friendly 3D editor. The following step-by-step guide will show you how to choose and customize your new metal garage.
STEP 1
Start With One of Our Popular Steel Garage Buildings
Select one of our featured configurations below to preload doors, windows, and other options shown in the images below. It’ll save you time.
Don’t worry if the garage isn’t exactly what you want; you can customize it later.
STEP 2
Choose Your Garage Size
You can customize the garage’s width, depth, and height. Longer steel garages only work with vertical roofs. If you’re building a residential garage, consider whether it’ll be an attached or detached garage and how many vehicles you plan to park.
| Garage Size | Width (ft.) | Depth (ft.) | Area (sq. ft.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-car garage | 12’-18’ | 20’-30’ | 240-540 |
| 2-car garage | 20’-24’ | 20’-30’ | 360-660 |
| 3-car garage | 30’-36’ | 20’-30’ | 600-1,260 |
| 4-car garage | 40’-48’ | 20’-30’ | 800-1,600 |
STEP 3
Choose a Roof Style for Your Garage
You can choose from different roof styles, including regular, boxed eave, and vertical roofs.
Regular Roof Garage
The regular roof style has a bow that gives it a unique shape
- Barn-shaped
- Rounded design
- Most cost-effective option
Boxed Eave Roof Garage
This A-frame roof style has panels that run from front to back
- Similar aesthetic to vertical roofs
- Has horizontally aligned panels
Vertical Roof Garage
The vertical roof style is the strongest roof style available
- Vertical sheeting allows rain and snow to slide off easily
- Ideal for structures over 40 feet to prevent leaks
STEP 4
Choose Your Garage Height
Consider the space available for the foundation and the height you need for your vehicles and other items to fit in nicely.
The following calculator can help you estimate the leg height you’ll need.
Roof Center Brace Clearance & Peak Height
Select your carport or garage preferences to see the center clearance and peak height.
Learn more about height clearance and building heights on our Height Clearance Calculator page.
STEP 5
Customize Your Steel Garage
Decide on the number and size of doors and windows you want. You can also change the color to fit your taste or your home’s color, which is especially relevant if you’re building a residential garage.
Once you’re done, you’ll get a detailed quote. If you agree with the amount, hit the “Buy Now” button.
STEP 6
Get Your Permit
Once you pay the deposit for your custom metal garage, you’ll be able to download the engineered plans. You can take them to your building authority to get your permit.
STEP 7
Prepare a Space for Your Prefab Garage
Before we deliver your new garage, set up a level gravel pad or concrete slab, and make sure the foundation is the right size.
For gravel pad
We recommend your gravel pad to be 2 feet longer and 2 feet wider than your garage size.
For concrete pad
Typically, we recommend your concrete pad to be at least 1 foot longer and 1 foot wider than your garage size. Use our concrete pad calculator to confirm your pad size.
Learn more about Concrete Pads on our Concrete Pad Size Calculator page.

I have already purchased one Carport, and I love it. And would recommend Alan’s to anyone looking for a Quality Unit.
Very easy to order, and knowledgeable customer service personnel. Reasonable pricing of materials, and installation & delivery is at no charge
I can not believe how simple and easy you have made ordering a carport could be – thank you so very much
Your site has the best prices for my area and it was very easy to compare all the options for a carport.
The website is great to use and build your structure very easily as well as view what it will look like. I've enjoyed my experience with Alan's the first time that I've now decided to build a 2nd building with them.
The website was easy to navigate. The details were very easy to find and the virtual view was a nice feature.
The online configuration tool is quick and easy. I had a hard time making a decision on the style, but ended up configuring about three different carports and was able to easily compare the cost, which helped me to decide on the design and style.
Well worth your investment in creating a user friendly custom garage ordering system! It was fun and easy to use this. Thank you for investing in a good developer to create this.
Alan’s did such a great job eight years ago with my first building that I’m not hesitating about buying another one now.
Website is user friendly and staff is always quick to respond with information I've needed.
Easy as pie to order. Prices very fair No pressure to order and customer service answered any questions very quickly
This is the 2nd one we've purchased, and our initial experience is why we returned to you!!
So far things have been quick and easy, and the website is super user friendly! I hope the rest of the experience is just as good!
This is the second rv carport we have purchased from you. We love the product and had excellent service and installation the last time.
Called your 888 number and spoke to Melissa who was very professional, and willing to let me ask all the dumb questions that I needed to ask since I have never done this before. Thank you Melissa.
Customization options are excellent for getting the perfect size and colors, especially if you are trying to match the colors of your house Install was quick and efficient. The team went the extra mile to ensure proper placement and satisfaction.
I found this website terrific for custom building my metal pole barn. I was able to specify each detail and see how it would look and how much it would cost.
Easy ordering and great prices for good product. Convenient delivery and installation for your out of state customers.
I thought it was very helpful and I also liked the 3 d view it was amazing and I really like the color height options and it is very detailed with all the information
Great carport for the price. The team that delivered it were fast and efficient. It looks good and is well made. If I ever need another on I know who to call.
