Weather Protection for Equipment: Custom Storage Buildings That Protect Your Investment

The Critical Need for Equipment Protection

Whether facing snow, wind, rain, or extreme heat, protecting your onsite equipment is essential to its longevity and to helping ensure a potential warranty. From water piping and petroleum equipment to any application requiring long-term outdoor usage, enclosed coverage solutions prevent costly damage and equipment failure.

New York winter weather makes equipment protection particularly critical. However, facilities nationwide face their own environmental challenges — high winds, heavy rain, thunderstorms, and temperature extremes all threaten unprotected equipment. Climate-controlled environments may be necessary for sensitive applications.

Custom Storage Building Solutions for Equipment Protection

Austin Mohawk storage cover building units offer multiple custom solutions that protect against the inevitable deterioration of exposed equipment.

Customizable Access Options:

• Double swing doors for wide equipment access
• Roll-up doors for maximum opening clearance
• Roof access hatches for overhead equipment servicing
• Climate-controlled HVAC systems for temperature-sensitive equipment

Field Assembly Advantages: Field assembly provides a cost-effective option with straightforward, step-by-step assembly instructions included. This approach works especially well for covering existing equipment installations or protecting equipment that's already in place.

Real-World Application: Water and Pump Equipment Protection

As you can see in the photo, one facility determined that its water and pump equipment required critical weather protection. Multiple equipment areas around the property needed coverage solutions.

After careful review, we provided a custom design option for field installation over existing conditions. The design allows for:

• Protection of current equipment from all weather conditions
• Flexibility to add additional equipment in the future
• Quick field assembly without disrupting existing operations

Custom vs. Shop Assembly: Finding the Right Approach

Austin Mohawk's custom design team works both ways to meet your specific needs:

Shop Assembly: For smaller storage booths, full assembly in our facility ensures custom construction before delivery to your site.

Field Assembly: When equipment requiring coverage is massive or already installed, field assembly is an effective solution. Our team provides complete assembly instructions and support for quick, efficient installation.

Why Equipment Protection Matters

Protecting and maintaining your equipment is critical to:

• Extending equipment lifespan and preventing premature failure
• Helping ensure a potential warranty
• Reducing repair and replacement costs from weather damage
• Ensuring equipment reliability when you need it most
