Metl-Span Products We Install in Dallas-Fort Worth

Alpine Sheet Metal Systems installs a variety of Metl-Span insulated wall, roof, fire-resistant, and architectural panel systems for commercial and industrial projects throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

The CF Mesa panel is a versatile insulated metal wall system suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications. Its corrugated Mesa profile creates subtle visual depth while the insulated core contributes to the thermal performance of the building envelope.

CF Mesa panels are available in multiple widths and thicknesses, allowing the system to accommodate different structural, thermal, and architectural requirements. Depending on configuration, panels can be installed horizontally or vertically.

With available thicknesses ranging from 2 inches to 8 inches and published R-values reaching R-70 for an 8-inch panel, CF Mesa is a strong option for projects where energy efficiency is a major consideration.

CF Light Mesa provides a flatter appearance than the standard Mesa profile with a shallow 1/16-inch corrugated rib. The resulting surface creates a clean architectural appearance while remaining easy to maintain.

The system can be used for exterior walls, interior walls, and ceiling applications. It is also particularly well suited for temperature-controlled environments such as coolers, freezers, food-processing facilities, dry-goods warehouses, and cold-storage buildings.

For specialized applications, Metl-Span also offers USDA-compliant stainless steel options for areas requiring regular washdowns.

Metl-Span’s CF Architectural insulated metal panels provide architects with a refined exterior appearance while delivering the benefits of an insulated building-envelope system.

Available architectural profiles provide options for creating clean lines, reveals, and distinctive facade patterns. These panels can be incorporated into offices, retail developments, institutional facilities, manufacturing buildings, and other commercial properties where appearance and thermal performance are both important.

The CF Santa Fe wall panel combines insulated metal panel performance with an embossed stucco-like texture. Its flat exterior profile is designed to provide the visual character of masonry stucco while retaining the installation efficiency and thermal benefits associated with insulated metal panels.

Santa Fe panels are available in multiple widths and can be incorporated into automotive facilities, healthcare buildings, manufacturing properties, self-storage developments, and other commercial projects.

For Dallas-Fort Worth architects looking for a textured exterior without relying on a traditional stucco wall assembly, CF Santa Fe provides a distinctive alternative.

Metl-Span’s Striated wall panel provides a contemporary exterior appearance characterized by subtle linear detailing. The understated profile works well for commercial projects where architects want visual texture without the deeper corrugations of more pronounced panel systems.

Striated panels can be incorporated into complete elevations or coordinated with other profiles and facade materials to create architectural contrast.

Metl-Span’s CFR is an all-in-one insulated standing-seam roof panel that combines durable exterior and interior metal faces with an insulated foam core.

The system features a 2-inch-high standing seam and Mesa profile between the seams. Concealed clips and mechanically seamed exterior side joints contribute to weather resistance, while factory-cut panel notching, swaged ends, and factory-installed backer plates help simplify installation.

CFR panels are available in 36-inch and 42-inch coverage widths and thicknesses from 2 inches through 6 inches. Published R-values range from approximately R-17.5 at 2 inches to R-52.5 at 6 inches for the 42-inch panel configuration.

CFR can be used on roof slopes as low as 1/2 inch per 12 inches under standard recommendations, making it a versatile option for commercial and industrial roofing applications.

The LS-36 is a versatile insulated metal panel designed for both roof and wall applications. Combining thermal performance with a traditional ribbed metal-panel appearance, the system is particularly useful for commercial and industrial projects requiring a practical all-in-one insulated enclosure.

Its ability to serve as either a wall or roof panel also makes LS-36 useful for projects where architects and contractors want a coordinated building-envelope system.

TerraVue™ is Metl-Span’s insulated metal composite roof-deck system for commercial and industrial low-slope and flat-roof applications.

The system is engineered to combine insulation and roof-deck functionality into an efficient assembly designed around energy performance, durability, and simplified installation. TerraVue provides another option for projects where traditional insulated metal standing-seam roofing may not align with the intended roof design.

ThermalSafe is Metl-Span’s fire-resistant insulated metal panel system. Unlike foam-core insulated metal panels, ThermalSafe incorporates a non-combustible structural mineral wool core between galvanized steel facings.

Depending on the selected panel thickness and assembly, ThermalSafe systems are available for projects requiring fire-resistance ratings of up to three hours.

Panels are available in nominal thicknesses ranging from 3 inches to 8 inches, with rated configurations beginning at applicable thicknesses. ThermalSafe is particularly valuable for manufacturing facilities, warehouses, industrial properties, institutional buildings, and other projects with demanding fire-performance requirements.

Advantages of Metl-Span Insulated Metal Panels

Metl-Span insulated metal panel systems offer a combination of thermal performance, installation efficiency, durability, and architectural flexibility for Dallas-Fort Worth commercial construction.

High Thermal Performance

Metl-Span insulated metal panels are available in multiple thicknesses to accommodate different energy-performance requirements. For example, CF Mesa panels with the applicable foam-core configuration publish R-values ranging from approximately R-17.5 at 2 inches to R-70 at 8 inches.

All-in-One Building Envelope

Insulated metal panels combine exterior metal facing, insulation, and interior facing into a single manufactured component. This approach can simplify construction compared with assemblies requiring separate exterior cladding, insulation, and interior liner components.

Efficient Installation

Large prefabricated panels allow substantial portions of a building envelope to be enclosed efficiently. Metl-Span systems incorporate panel joints and connection details designed to streamline installation while maintaining envelope performance.

Architectural Design Flexibility

Metl-Span offers numerous panel profiles, textures, finishes, and colors. Options range from Mesa and Light Mesa profiles to stucco-inspired Santa Fe and architectural panel systems, allowing designers to select an appearance appropriate for each project.

Wall and Roof Solutions

With products for exterior walls, roofs, ceilings, partitions, cold storage, fire-resistant construction, and backup wall systems, Metl-Span can address multiple portions of a commercial building envelope.

Fire-Resistant Options

ThermalSafe panels incorporate non-combustible mineral wool and are available in assemblies designed to meet demanding fire-resistance requirements, including configurations with ratings up to three hours.

Metl-Span Installation Expertise in Dallas-Fort Worth

Proper insulated metal panel installation is essential for achieving the intended thermal, structural, air, water, and aesthetic performance of the building envelope. Alpine Sheet Metal Systems provides experienced commercial metal panel installation throughout Dallas-Fort Worth.

Precision Insulated Metal Panel Installation

Our installation teams understand the importance of accurate panel layout, proper fastening, consistent joints, sealant placement, flashing, trim, and transitions when working with insulated metal panel systems.

Wall and Roof Installation

With Metl-Span products designed for both vertical and horizontal building-envelope applications, careful coordination between wall panels, roofing, openings, corners, and transitions is essential to achieving a complete system.

Building-Envelope Coordination

Insulated metal panels must integrate correctly with windows, doors, penetrations, roofing components, structural framing, waterproofing, and adjacent facade materials. Alpine coordinates these conditions to help maintain continuity throughout the exterior envelope.

Custom Architectural Sheet Metal

Alpine Sheet Metal Systems can also provide custom flashing, trim, copings, transitions, and related architectural sheet metal components needed to complete complex Metl-Span installations.
