The Right Wall Panels Can Be the Difference between ‘Common’ and ‘Cool’.

Some people are convinced that metal buildings need to look like boring, boxy, warehouses of old. But nothing could be further from the truth.

The right decision about something as seemingly unimportant as a wall panel can make all the difference. The experienced sales team at Great Western and our engineers can offer suggestions on an assortment of options, including look, color and type. But more than aesthetics, you want durability, ease of installation and weather-resistance.

When used with double sided mastic tape, the girt bearing leg in each panel at the standard 36” means that the wall panels that Great Western offers provide you with the most weather resistant and leak-proof wall panels on the market.

Vap-Stop System

A Revolutionary Way to Further Protect Your Building

The Vap-Stop System can be pre-applied at the factory to the inside surface of all Great Western panel profiles. This system creates a thermal block between the panel and the steel buildingssecondary framing. This virtually eliminates the possibility of condensation building up on the inside panel surface and framing members. We recommend this product for all non-insulated buildings.

• Available on standard roofing products as well

Stud Wall Systems

Adding Versatility and Giving You The Freedom to Choose

Great Western’s engineering and detailing team can provide the structural support system which allows for the tie in of light gauge steel, or wooden stud-walls. These systems are typically used for glass store fronts or when specified by an architect for a special wall sheeting like stucco or split log finishes. That’s right – stucco or split log finishes. Who says your steel building needs to look like a metal box?
