Metal Buildings

A room with gorgeous natural lighting feels bigger, more open, and relaxing. Natural light is great for your mood and it helps if you want to make a studio or workshop out of your garage or structure. Let the sunshine into your building by adding windows, glass-pane doors, or garage doors with windows. You can even enhance the natural light you already have by making a few adjustments like painting with a high-gloss white paint for reflectivity or painting your eaves white. Here are more pro tips to let natural light into your building:

Adding Windows

When you Design Your Own custom building with VersaTube, you can easily add openings for windows into the frame. We’ve made it as simple as dragging and placing a box where you want your windows to be. Designing a building has never been so easy!

Choose Your Doors

Doors come in such a wide variety of styles, why not use the door to your advantage by selecting one that enhances the natural light in your building? Glass-pane doors or wooden doors with large windows work wonders for lighting up a room.

Garage Doors with Windows

Many people’s garages are way too dark, and that little light by the door just isn’t enough to make the space feel comfortable and homey. Turn that dark garage into a vibrantly lit space with elegant garage doors that feature windows near the top. The light will filter in and transform your whole garage. You’ll feel compelled to make better use of your garage when it is bright and comfortable to spend time in.  

Extra Pro Tips for Enhancing Your Natural Light

White reflects light. Use this to your advantage by painting your room with a high-gloss white and the light you already have will reflect off all four walls, brightening the whole room. If your structure has eaves or overhangs, you can paint the undersides white as well. This will redirect light that would otherwise escape back into your building.
