PodRoof Kits are available in three standard widths: 20 feet, 30 feet, and 40 feet between the inside edges of the containers. Each kit spans 20 feet in length. For larger coverage, multiple kits can be connected end-to-end to create extended roof systems.

Width refers to the full span of the roof from one side to the other.
Length is the distance along the shipping containers and the roof’s ridge line.
Space indicates the open area between the inside edges of the two containers.

The largest PodRoof Kit spans up to 56 feet across, allowing for a maximum open space of 40 feet between the inside edges of the shipping containers.

Peak Heights:

GB361 – 12' 6”
GB561 – 14’ 7 3/16”
GB5630 – 26’ 4”
GM201 – 13’ 8 3/8”
GM401 – 17’ 11 5/8”
GM30 – 15' 8"
GB46 – 13' 10 1/2"

PodRoof Kit slopes vary by model and roof design:

GB361, GB46, GB561 – 2/12 pitch, 10° slope
GM201, GM30, GM401 – Upper section: 2/12 pitch, 10° slope; Lower section: 7/12 pitch, 30° slope
GB5630 – 7/12 pitch, 30° slope

These slope measurements affect water runoff, snow load handling, and overall roof aesthetics.

All PodRoof Kits use durable 26-gauge steel roof panels. This thickness offers a strong balance of weather resistance, structural integrity, and long-term performance.

Yes, PodRoof Kits are designed to be modular and can be connected end-to-end to extend your covered space. There are no gaps between kits when installed properly. For example, using two 20-foot-long kits with 40-foot shipping containers will create a continuous 40-foot roof span.

PodRoof Kits use a proprietary bracket system that securely locks into the corner pin holes of standard shipping containers. This connection method requires no welding, making installation fast, safe, and straightforward.

Yes, all PodRoof Kit components are engineered for outdoor use and built to withstand harsh weather conditions. From brackets to roof panels, every part is designed for long-term durability in rain, wind, snow, and sun exposure.

Yes, every PodRoof Kit comes complete with all required components for assembly and secure container attachment. This includes roof panels, proprietary brackets, fasteners, and all hardware needed to build and install your kit—no extra parts or welding required.

Yes, detailed instruction manuals and assembly diagrams are provided after your order is placed and payment is received. You can also view our assembly videos here to help guide your setup step-by-step.

Yes, we offer Tarp End Walls to enclose the open ends of your PodRoof setup and provide added weather protection. Metal End Walls are coming soon and will offer a more permanent enclosure option. Stay tuned for product updates and availability.

The gutter upgrade includes everything needed for installation: gutters and downspouts for both sides of the roof, end caps, and all required brackets and fasteners. This system helps direct water runoff and protects the area beneath your PodRoof Kit.

To safely and efficiently install a PodRoof Kit, we recommend using lifting equipment such as a bucket lift or forklift, along with scaffolding and ladders. For detailed guidance, we can provide a complete tools and equipment checklist upon request.

Construction time depends on several factors, including crew size, number and type of kits, installer experience, weather conditions, site layout, and available equipment. On average, a single small PodRoof Kit can be assembled in one full workday.

Yes, PodRoof Kits are specifically designed for modular flexibility. You can disassemble the roof, move it to a new location, and reassemble it without damaging components or requiring specialized tools. This makes them ideal for temporary setups, relocatable structures, and evolving site needs.

Shield Roof Solutions does not directly assemble or install PodRoof Kits. However, we’re happy to help you find a qualified contractor familiar with our products to ensure proper installation.

We do not acquire permits on your behalf. However, once your order is placed and paid for, we can provide product information directly to your engineer or local building department to support the approval process. Stamped engineering reports are available for an additional fee and will be delivered once your order is in progress.

We offer a 20-year limited warranty on all PodRoof Kits, covering defects in materials and workmanship.

Due to the custom nature of our products, returns and refunds are not accepted. However, if any parts are missing or incorrect, we’ll promptly replace or supply them—just notify us as soon as possible after delivery.

PodRoof Kits are shipped in two parts for efficient delivery:

• Large structural components are bundled and shipped via flatbed truck.
• Smaller hardware and accessories are palletized and shipped by common carriers such as FedEx, Roadrunner, or regional freight services.

We ship from multiple locations across the U.S. to ensure fast, cost-effective service nationwide.

Freight charges are calculated at the time of quotation or order based on your location, kit size, and shipping method. This ensures accurate pricing tailored to your delivery needs.

No, freight carriers do not unload shipments. It is the customer’s responsibility to unload all materials upon delivery and to provide any necessary equipment, such as a forklift or lift gate, to do so safely.
