What keeps the wind from blowing my building away?

How much snow can my building withstand?
Shelter king Structures are very sturdy and capable of withstanding winter months in heavy snowfall areas. Most snow easily slides off the smooth surface of our covers by itself. In the event of a buildup, the snow can be easily removed by tapping on the building’s ceiling from the inside. If you will not be able to attend to the shelter, we recommend additional rafters for added security.
 
Will the sun affect the life span of my building?
Our industrial-leading quality, 10 oz. 24 mil thick cover material comes with an exclusive 1-year warranty. Covers last an average of 7-10 years, up all year round depending on the amount of UV.
