Detached Garage

Post-frame garages designed and constructed by Morton are strong like steel, as comfortable as wood, and as low-maintenance as concrete. They are quick to build, virtually maintenance free, energy saving, and long lasting. Between efficiency in building and efficiency in owning, your decision to build an insulated steel garage with Morton has both short and long-term value.

Your Morton garage is constructed to withstand all sorts of elements. That’s because it’s made with the industry’s toughest steel, high-quality lumber and best paint available for this application to stand the test of time. That’s how Morton became a national leader of steel garage buildings. Our high-quality, durable materials, and sound construction methods ensure you a have a building you can be proud to own.

Whether you have a small lot or a large acreage, we work with you to make the building process easy. From the first meeting with your sales consultant to the day your steel garage building is completed by our skilled construction crew, Morton stands behind your project to ensure you get a building you can be proud of now, and in the future.

custom garages for any project

Your Morton garage can be customized to complement any existing structures, including your home. And it doesn’t have to be your traditional metal detached garage either; we work with many vendors to provide everything from premier windows to one-piece hydraulic doors. You can also add features like acoustical steel to cut down on noise and Morton’s exclusive Energy Performer® insulation system to provide a comfortable and energy-efficient insulated steel garage year-round.

Morton’s roofs are designed for long-term good looks, and they’re available in a variety of colors and roof pitches. The many available options for roof types include:

  • Gable
  • Monitor
  • Gambrel
  • Hip
  • Dutch Hip
  • Gable Dormer
  • Deep Fascia Overhang
  • Eyebrow Overhang

Overhead doors are used in a variety of applications and sizes in our metal detached garages. Your Morton sales consultant—coordinating with local subcontractors with whom we do business—can recommend which overhead door best meets your needs.

Bi-fold doors in widths up to 70' and one-piece hydraulically operated doors—in a wide variety of sizes ranging from 10'x10' to 80'x22'—are also available for those large vehicle or equipment applications that require a specialty door.

We carry a quality line of walkdoors. Our MB910 walkdoor is “thermally broken” to reduce thermal heat loss and condensation build-up—a great choice for insulated buildings. The MB FiberSteel® door, our premium walkdoor, is recommended for a variety of customer applications and offers a crossbuck design option. All of our walkdoors are available with or without windows.

Wainscot adds style and protection, which you can add any time in the life of your buildings. Finishes available include:

Morton Buildings recognizes that a superior building is best accented with an outstanding paint coating. That’s why Morton offers the FLUOROFLEX paint system. FLUOROFLEX 1000 provides superior protection against fading, chalking, paint peeling and red rust. Because it resists the effects of ultraviolet rays, rain and pollution, it retains color and gloss far longer than standard consumer or commercial paint coatings. Morton is proud to offer a 35-year warranty for most colors against chalking, fading and peeling of FLUOROFLEX 1000.

Want to see your color choices in action? Design your next building using the new, interactive Morton Buildings 3D Studio! From colors to texture to style, your final product is a printable, sharable color rendering of your dream Morton building.

benefits of a morton metal garage building

Whether you need a metal garage building for a second vehicle, guest or children’s vehicle parking, or to store a boat, tools, lawn tractors, UTVs, motorcycles, work truck, bus, RV, or just need extra workshop space, Morton can deliver a strong and durable building to meet your needs and style.

Second and third generation owners will tell you their Morton buildings look like new after decades of use. From foundations to fasteners, every detail is designed for minimal maintenance. In fact, the reason we offer the industry-leading warranty is because Morton buildings:

  • Use FLUOROFLEX® paints because they resist moisture and UV light
  • Won’t corrode or rot because of treated wood, true stainless steel screws and rust-resistant ring shank fasteners
  • Stand strong against high wind and snow loads
  • Eliminate leaking and condensation build-up through roof pitches and ventilation systems
  • Control condensation and thereby protect insulation from moisture and sagging

Compared to steel structure garages, our post-frame buildings are highly engineered and structurally sound with truss to column attachment options that can be customized to your load requirements and climate conditions.

Insulated Morton buildings are more efficient than other types of steel structure garages. Additionally, Morton offers ways to make your energy dollar stretch even further with ENERGY STAR® components and the Energy Performer® insulation system.

Also, our type of construction is fast in many ways. First, you can begin any time of year, as weather-related construction delays are rare. Once you begin, the amount of time it takes to get “under roof” is approximately half what you would normally expect from other construction techniques.

From the smallest fastener to the trusses overhead, Morton leaves absolutely no detail to chance. If we’re going to put our name on it, we’re going to make sure it’s done right. That’s why we employ the people who manufacture the building materials, deliver them to your site and construct your building. It’s the only way we can assure you the high-quality, energy efficiency and “new building look” that defies time—guaranteed.

working with morton

When you choose to build a garage with Morton, the experience is as solid as the building itself.

We operate within a culture of accountability. Before, during and after completion of your building, we’re your one point of contact. You will never hear us tell you to call someone else for an answer to your question.

It’s no wonder the vast majority of our projects stem from referrals.

Your Morton sales consultant represents you. Your sales consultant works for Morton until you make a down payment. Then he or she works for you. Your sales consultant will meet with you to discuss your ideas and budget. Working with you, the building layout will be generated based on your specifications. As part of the larger Morton network, he or she will guide you through the entire process to:

  • Arrange pre-build details, like concept development, building plans and quotes, site plan, permits and zoning details, budgeting and financing
  • Oversee the building process, communicating with you throughout
  • Check on your satisfaction after completion
