What Sets Rhino Apart from the Competition?

Rhino Buildings has been in business for decades, and that’s because they offer quality prefab metal building kits and excellent service.

#1 – Valuable Features

Rhino provides a number of value-added benefits with their buildings, including:

• Commercial-grade steel framing
• Prefab framing components that are welded, cut and pre-drilled prior to delivery
• Easy, bolt-together design
• Trim in your choice of color
• Pre-welded clips for easy attachment of purlins and girts
• Framing for doors up to 30’ wide
• Steel anchor bolt plan
• 49-page installation manual as well as a DVD
• Self-drilling washers and fasteners with a lifetime warranty ensuring no rust forms on the zinc head

#2 – Easy Assembly

According to Rhino, many customers choose to erect their own buildings. Rhino’s prefabricated building kits arrive with the components already cut, drilled and welded for easy installation.

The company can also offer assistance throughout the building process by answering questions and providing guidance.

Rhino estimates that a 40’ x 60’ x 14’ building takes five days to erect with a three-man crew. The company can provide information on the equipment you will need to install your building.

#3 – 26-Gauge Steel Roof and Wall Panels

Rhino buildings are constructed with strong PBR, Purlin Bearing Rib, wall and roof panels. These panels are made from 26-gauge, high-strength steel and feature an additional overlap for even greater water resistance and strength.

Panels are also coated with Galvalume for weather protection and a panel color on top of the Galvalume layer. Both the Galvalume layer and the color coating are backed by a 25-year warranty.

#4 – Formed Base Trim

All Rhino buildings have a formed base trim, which adds color, but also offers other benefits.

• Saves an average of 4 yards of concrete for a 5,000 square foot building. That equates to hundreds of dollars in savings.
• Eliminates the need for 1-1/2″ notches in the concrete surrounding the slab. The trim will not sit on concrete, which can lead to rusting.

Base trims are available in all the same colors as the wall panels, so they blend right in with the rest of the building.

#5 – Metal Ridge Caps

Rhino buildings have metal ridge caps that can be made to fit all panel shapes, allowing for a tighter seal at the roof seam. Not only does this help with weatherproofing, but it also helps keep pests out.

#6 – Closure Strips

For even greater weatherproofing, Rhino buildings have a special sealing system designed of foam rubber. These closure strips are located at the roof, base and eaves of the building.

Rhino Steel Building Systems offers an impressive collection of prefab metal building kits, all of which can be customized to your needs.
