I have a metal building and want to add a metal "awning", does anyone know who does this and what is it called? It is vertical metal wrapped around the building about a foot away from the building. I have seen it at gas stations and other buildings. I don't think it is called an awning there is no slope just straight up and down. Who does it?

Try going to the Metal Construction Associations web site where they have a commercial ask the experts section.	Allan Reid Dura-Loc Roofing Systems, Inc. 7/24/2006	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/8383/find/
You may be talking about a mansard. I'm not sure what you mean about it being a foot away from the building though.	Guest User 8/3/2006	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/8384/find/
I believe that they are talking about a sunscreen sort of configuration. This sort of thing needs to be custom-fabricated to meet the job's exact needs.	Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 8/4/2006	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/8385/find/
