Blackjack,

We've been researching Metal buildings for a few years now. Hoping to upgrade the shop and increase it three fold. I really like the steel beamed buildings! No code problems as far as structure goes, wide open centers no matter how large you go and you can use the side supports for shelving and or hanging all you neat parts. They even sell hook attachments for them.

You've been in our old shop, and it's a Morton. Over 20 years old and no major complaints to date, although the roof is starting to look a little rough. Our main building is 55 x 65, the attached new section is 36 x 40.

All the info spoken here is dead on! My building originally had, two outlets, two over head light bulbs, and a dirt floor. On any given summer day it used to rain inside, from sweating. The original 16' double sliding doors, both ends of the building would look like a sea gull in a good wind, with both ends almost standing outright.

See you in a few weeks Sir!
