Gold Mountain 20' x 40' x 12' Single Truss Storage Shelter
Serious Storage Space for the Equipment You Need to Protect
Need a dependable place to store tractors, vehicles, landscaping equipment, farm supplies, or other large belongings?
The Gold Mountain 20' x 40' x 12' Single Truss Storage Shelter provides a spacious, practical alternative to constructing a traditional permanent storage building.
With 800 square feet of covered footprint, a hot-dip galvanized steel frame, front and rear roll-up doors, and a manufacturer-listed snow-load rating of 42 pounds per square foot, this shelter is designed for substantial outdoor storage needs.
Whether you're protecting agricultural equipment, organizing a contractor's storage area, or creating additional space on your property, this Gold Mountain shelter offers flexibility without the construction process associated with many permanent buildings.
800 Square Feet of Covered Storage
The 20-foot width and 40-foot length provide approximately 800 square feet of covered ground area.
This makes the shelter a useful option for compatible items such as:
-
Tractors and agricultural equipment
-
Landscaping and lawn maintenance machinery
-
Cars, utility vehicles, and trailers
-
Construction tools and materials
-
Farm supplies and implements
-
Seasonal equipment
-
Outdoor maintenance supplies
-
Bulk storage materials
The 12-foot overall peak height provides additional vertical clearance toward the center of the structure.
Sidewall height: 6.56 feet.
Before purchasing, verify your equipment's width, height, and turning requirements against the shelter's door openings and usable interior clearances.
Front and Rear Roll-Up Doors
This shelter includes zipper-style roll-up doors at both ends.
Each door measures approximately:
14.4 feet wide x 10.8 feet high
The two-ended access arrangement makes it easier to plan equipment movement and storage layouts.
Depending on your site and equipment, you may be able to enter from one end and exit through the other rather than repeatedly backing equipment into position.
The roll-up design also helps keep the entrance area unobstructed when the doors are secured open.
Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel Frame
The structure uses a single-truss steel frame made from hot-dip galvanized tubing.
Galvanizing helps protect the steel against corrosion during outdoor exposure.
The manufacturer lists:
The galvanized frame provides the supporting structure for the shelter's fabric covering.
The supplier estimates a frame lifespan of more than 15 years, depending on installation, maintenance, and environmental conditions. This is a manufacturer estimate, not a guaranteed service life.
Manufacturer-Listed Snow and Wind Ratings
The Gold Mountain shelter has the following manufacturer-listed ratings:
Snow load: 42 PSF
Wind load: 50 MPH
These figures are important considerations when comparing large outdoor storage shelters.
The peaked roof design is intended to help shed precipitation, while the tensioning system helps keep the fabric properly secured.
Actual performance depends on correct installation, anchoring, site conditions, maintenance, and compliance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Local snow and wind requirements can exceed the listed ratings. Customers should confirm that this model is appropriate for their installation location.
Choose the Right Shelter Fabric
The manufacturer offers several fabric options to accommodate different budgets and storage needs.
Economical PE Fabric
11 oz/yd² class (300 gsm) PE tarpaulin
An economical covering option for customers seeking a more budget-conscious storage solution.
Heavy-Duty PVC Fabric Options
-
16 oz/yd² class (450 gsm) PVC
-
23 oz/yd² class (650 gsm) PVC
-
26 oz/yd² class (750 gsm) PVC
-
32 oz/yd² class (900 gsm) PVC
PVC options provide a heavier covering choice for customers seeking additional fabric durability.
The manufacturer estimates a fabric lifespan of approximately 7–10 years, depending on fabric selection and environmental conditions.
Important: Fabric selection affects the product configuration and warranty. Confirm the fabric included in your order before purchasing.
Natural Daylight Inside
The supplier describes the shelter's PVC covering as allowing natural light into the structure.
Depending on the selected fabric and its color, this can help improve daytime visibility inside the shelter.
The amount of transmitted light will vary by covering type.
Pipe-and-Ratchet Fabric Tensioning
The shelter uses a pipe-and-ratchet tie-down system to help maintain fabric tension.
Proper tension is important because loose fabric can collect precipitation and experience unnecessary movement during windy conditions.
The manufacturer recommends inspecting and retightening the fabric after installation and periodically thereafter.
Seasonal temperature changes can cause the covering to loosen, making routine adjustment especially important.
Suitable for Agricultural, Commercial, and Residential Storage
The shelter's large footprint and accessible layout make it useful for a variety of applications, including:
-
Farm equipment storage
-
Tractor and implement protection
-
Contractor equipment storage
-
Landscaping business operations
-
Vehicle and trailer storage
-
Outdoor material storage
-
Temporary covered work or staging areas
Any use involving public gatherings, commercial occupancy, or specialized operations should be reviewed against applicable local requirements.
