Sheet Metal Supply products transform transit agency offices
March 9, 2021
Sheet Metal Supply, Grayslake, Ill., has announced its participation in the expansion of SouthWest Transit, the Minnesota public transit agency for the Twin Cities suburbs of Chaska, Chanhassen, Eden Prairie, and Carver.
The company delivered 2,300 sq. ft. of 1-mm Rheinzink flat lock panels (60 by 16 in.) and 600 sq. ft. of 18-ga. Cor-Ten flat lock panels (20 by 16 in.) for the project, which included a 2,000-sq.-ft., second-floor expansion, plus exterior renovation to tie in the original building with the expansion.
Metal panels were specified for the remodel because of their lightweight qualities and minimal structural impacts to the existing construction, as well as the availability of custom colors.
