Maine Metal Buildings recently completed a 5,000 square foot metal building system for Aces Auto, located at 23 Old Salt Road in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. This project was designed to support a high-functioning automotive operation while standing up to Maine’s demanding coastal conditions.
Project Overview
For this build, our team handled the full supply and installation of a Corle metal building system, delivering a structure that balances durability, efficiency, and long-term value. Automotive facilities require flexibility, clear spans, and reliable access points—this building checks every box.
Project Specifications:
14’ eave height to accommodate lifts and equipment
5,000 sq. ft. Corle metal building system
Full supply and installation
Fully insulated for year-round use
3 man doors for staff and customer access
3 overhead doors for vehicle flow and service bays
1 window opening for natural light
4/12 roof pitch for effective snow and water shedding
Built for Automotive Use
The layout and features of this building were tailored specifically for an auto service environment. The 14-foot eave height provides ample clearance for vehicle lifts and mechanical equipment, while the three overhead doors allow for smooth traffic flow in and out of the shop.
Insulation was a key component of the build, helping maintain consistent interior temperatures throughout Maine’s changing seasons—an important factor for both comfort and operational efficiency.
Designed for Maine’s Climate
Located just minutes from the coast, this Old Orchard Beach project required a structure that could handle wind, moisture, and snow loads. The 4/12 pitch roof promotes proper drainage and snow shedding, while the Corle metal building system offers long-term durability with minimal maintenance.
A Smart Investment for Growing Businesses
Metal buildings continue to be a smart choice for Maine businesses looking for speed of construction, cost efficiency, and adaptability. This project for Aces Auto is a great example of how a well-designed metal building can support daily operations today while allowing room for future growth.
