Rhino Shelter Instant Garage Shelter Fact Sheet
|
Fabric -
Rhino Shelter's covers are made of a 10 oz industrial grade rip-stop poly that is ultra-violet ray treated
on both sides to prevent sunlight from deteriorating the covers. These covers will last years in the sun.
Rip-stop poly means if you were to get a tear in the cover, the rip will not continue. We also offer our
covers in three attractive colors; green ,gray and tan to match your landscaping. All three colors have a
white interior which makes for a bright inside. Only Rhino Shelter's fabric is flame-resistant and meets
California fire code cpia-84. Many of our customers run heat inside their garages to keep warm while
working in their portable workshop.
Frames -
Rhino Shelter uses only high quality galvanized structural steel tubing that is designed not to rust. Most
other manufacturers powder coat their steel, which is basically a cheap way to cover black raw pipe and
make it appear galvanized. Powder coating, once chipped or scratched, may rust within 24 to 48 hours. Our
frames are also pre-drilled and are assembled with carriage bolts so that there are no power tools
required during assembly. Average installation time on the one car garage is 2 hours with two people the
first time setting it up. We make two styles, house and round. Both styles are designed with heavy duty,
galvanized steel frames to withstand snow and high winds.
Anchors - We use a
cable hook anchoring system. Each anchor is 3 feet long and the cable is made of stainless steel. This
prevents rusting. It's driven into the earth with a 3 foot long drive rod that fits into the head of the
anchor. Each anchor has a 1200 pound pull out ratio. Other companies use augers that are only 6 inches
long and they are very difficult to screw into the ground and may pull out easily.
Rhino Shelter Standard Options - Double zippers or triple zipper doors are standard front and back on all our
buildings at no extra charge. Other companies only include one double zipper door and will charge you
$60.00 extra for a door in the rear. We like our customers to have access from either end. This also
allows cross ventilation. Door hold up kits front and back are also standard on basic one car garages.
Doors can be easily rolled out of the way and fastened with bungee cords. Other companies will charge you
$40.00 extra per door just to hold the door up. Colors are no extra charge because we want the shelter to
match your landscaping or your house. Green ,gray, or tan are standard choices. Other companies will
charge you 10% extra to change the material run. We think the colors should be your choice, not ours.
Anchors are very important to us because we don't want your buildings to blow away. Once again this
feature is standard in our kits. The cable hook anchors are designed to be used on asphalt or dirt. Other
companies will charge $8.00 per cable hook anchor and $10.00 for the drive rod. Our 10 oz fabric cover is
standard on all our buildings. Most companies use only 7oz or 8 oz and will only last 1 or 2 years. Other
companies will charge 40 % more of the over all price to upgrade to12 ounce.
