Pairing Your Steel Building with Great Design
Steel buildings are incredible structures at their bones. Offering functionality, flexibility, and long-term solutions, steel buildings check all the boxes—except for appearance (or one might think). At their core, steel buildings are not the most attractive structures, but they can EASILY be made beautiful. Steel buildings can be equipped with exteriors and interiors that are appealing to clients, customers and visitors, and those aesthetics are made possible with coverings, trim and great design. Let’s take a look at how 100 x 80 steel buildings can be made attractive for customers and ideal for your daily operations.
Adding Visual Appeal to Your Steel Building
Covering
When investing in a steel frame, you will have to decide what kind of paneling to equip it with. Possibilities include PBR panel or the optional architectural A panel. PBR panel is standard for steel buildings, being used for commercial, agricultural and industrial structures. Coverings are utilized as wall panels or roof panels. Other alternatives, such as brick, can be used as wall panels; this is great for getting the benefits of steel frames while enjoying the attractive look of brick. Designers can use this to their advantage, mixing and matching different panel materials to make the most of the building’s structural integrity and creative visual appeal.
Trim
Trim for steel buildings is used wherever two ends meet, such as the corner of a building or the peak of a ridged roof. Trim on the roof of a building are designed to maintain airflow, prevent corrosion, add visual appeal and help seal the building. Trim can also be utilized on the sides, gutters and downspouts to regulate moisture on the roof while also acting as an attractive accessory.
Exterior Design
Steel buildings can be accessorized to have very appealing facades that are attractive to clients, customers, and visitors. Facades and mansards are available for either the sidewalls or endwalls of 100 x 80 steel buildings, available with and without soffit panels. Depending on what your signage needs are, the height of these can vary. To complement the exterior, canopies can be added to steel buildings, adding character and a pop of color. Eave overhangs can be functional, adding covering to a porch storage area where vehicles or equipment might be stored.
