Steel Automotive Storage Building in Newport, North Carolina

Metal Building Outlet sent the kit for this prefabricated steel storage building to an auto repair shop owner in Newport, North Carolina, in March 2024.

Designed to complement an existing automotive building on the property, the new addition expands the body shop’s storage space and operational capacity, making it a valuable asset for the business.  Key features include a 16’ roof-only inset bay along its rear end wall, which creates a covered, open-air space ideal for storing or servicing vehicles.

Gutters and downspouts along two walls channel rainwater away from the storage building’s outside walls and foundation, helping preserve structural integrity and lengthen the building’s lifespan. A high wind speed rating is another inclusion that keeps the structure compliant with local building codes while enhancing durability given the area’s propensity for strong storm and hurricane activity.

Durable, low-maintenance and well-equipped, the steel storage building provides reliable protection for cars and trucks, helping them maintain their good looks, functionality and resale value over time.
