Industrial metal buildings are an essential part of the commercial district. They can be great warehouses, but essentially their exterior is quite bland. If your metal building needs to generate revenue from customers, you must have the proper curbside appeal that draws in customers from afar. Now what is the best way to do a metal building renovation as easily and as cost effective as possible? The answer is through Urestone Faux Panels!

Why use Urestone for Metal Buildings?

The main issue with metal buildings when it comes to renovating is its exterior. With a metal building’s exterior, you can’t exactly remove walls and change its shape. The only real way to properly do this would be to fabricate a sort of cladding to change its appearance and texture. This is where Urestone Faux Panels come into play. Its unique panel system allows for it to attach onto metal surfaces and change the walls to either stone, brick or wood. The best part about it is that it looks just like its real counterpart and is 10x easier to install on a metal building.

How to use Urestone to Renovate

When doing a metal building renovation, you want to use Urestone faux panels more as an accent to help display the metal structure underneath. You do not want to fully cover up the metal and a little goes a long way. Even just a minimal accent can change the look of your building completely.  For most metal buildings, by creating a running wainscot trim and adding some pilasters and cornices you can make your metal building pop. 

Advantages of Using Urestone:

Whether it is using Urestone’s faux stone, brick or wood, there are 6 main advantages of using Urestone for Metal Building renovations.

Ease of Installation

• Simply add adhesives to the back of the panel and mount it with screws onto any surface. It is as simple as that. No special bricklayer skills needed!
