Need a DIY Garage? Consider a Steel Quonset Hut
A garage can be incredibly beneficial, whether you need the space for your car or want to use it for storage, as a workshop, or as a multi-purpose space. Whatever the case, you should strongly consider a Quonset garage kit.
The following is a deep dive into Quonset garage kits to help you determine if one will be right for you.
Your Quonset Garage, Workshop & Shop Kit
The U.S. military originally used Quonset huts during World War II because of their easy assembly and portability. Today, Quonset garage kits are a popular choice for residential and commercial buildings due to their affordability and flexibility.
Quonset huts are prefabricated steel structures designed for easy assembly, which makes them incredibly versatile. They can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as home workshops, additional storage, and even commercial businesses.
These are great options if you’re looking for a quick and affordable way to construct a garage or workshop on your property. The pre-manufactured kits come in many sizes, styles, and applications to best suit your needs.
How to Build Your Steel Quonset Hut Garage
One of the primary advantages of buying a Quonset garage kit is that you can assemble it yourself. All kits come with easy-to-follow instructions and can be assembled quickly, depending on how much help you have.
With that in mind, the following are the general steps required to assemble your Quonset garage:
The Quonset Hut Interior
Whatever you decide to use your Quonset hut for, you should strongly consider insulating it. Adding insulation is crucial if you plan on using your Quonset hut as a workshop, storage or living space.
Without insulation, the garage will be cold in the winter and hot in the summer. If you plan to add climate control to your Quonset hut, insulation will be a must to help keep energy costs low.
5 Ways to Customize Your Quonset Hut
One of the perks of ordering a prefab Quonset hut is that you can customize it to your needs. The following are some of the customization options that you can choose from when designing your Quonset garage:
Our Quonset Huts are Made of Galvalume Plus™ Steel
Although the structure of a Quonset hut is inherently stable due to the way it’s designed, the quality of the steel used in construction is an essential factor to consider. The higher quality the metal is, the longer it will last and the more resistant it will be against damage caused by things like exposure to the elements or corrosion.
At Future Buildings, we manufacture all of our metal building kits out of Galvalume Plus™ Steel, which is one of the highest-quality metals available on the market. Made from a metal alloy mix of 45% zinc and 55% aluminum, Galvalume Plus™ Steel provides superior protection against rust and corrosion.
All our steel is purchased directly from ArcelorMittal Dofasco to ensure consistency of quality grade steel and optimal pricing. Learn more about Galvalume Plus™ Steel at their website here. We guarantee the lifetime and longevity of our Quonset huts with a 50-year warranty against rust perforation.
