Steel Buildings Built for Merriam and Johnson County
Merriam is a town of about 11,000 people in Johnson County, about 460 miles from our manufacturing plant in Kilgore, Texas. Hail, strong wind and winter snow all show up in a typical year. Our metal buildings are made from galvanized steel with Sherwin-Williams coated panels, so what you store inside stays dry.
You choose the size, the number of bays, the doors and windows, and the colors. A vertical roof gives the best wind rating and sheds rain fastest, so it is what we recommend here. Concrete gives the strongest hold, but level ground with auger anchors works well on many rural lots.
Customers here order garages, workshops, barns and storage buildings in every size. Check with the City of Merriam about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews cover Merriam, Shawnee, Mission, Overland Park and Roeland Park. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
