Explore our Mega Rib, Standing Seam, and asphalt shingle roofing options to find the right fit for your outdoor structure.
Mega Rib Metal Roofing
This roofing features raised steel ribs and exposed fasteners, creating a bold, industrial appearance. This roofing system offers a durable and cost-effective option for pavilions in parks, schools, recreational areas, and other outdoor gathering spaces.

Exposed-fastener roofing system

Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Standing Seam metal roofing provides a clean, streamlined appearance for custom pavilions. Its snap-lock panel system uses concealed fasteners, eliminating the need for exposed fasteners through the main panel surfaces.
This roofing system accommodates natural expansion and contraction as temperatures change, making it an excellent option for projects where appearance and roofing design are priorities.
Standing Seam Features:
-
Clean, modern appearance
-
Concealed-fastener roofing system

Snap-lock interlocking panels

Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Shingle roofing is particularly useful for projects where a pavilion needs to match nearby buildings, such as churches, schools, or existing facilities.
Smith Steelworks can provide asphalt shingles for your pavilion. However, sourcing shingles locally may be the best option when matching the exact color and style of an existing roof. Even when shingles are sourced locally, Smith Steelworks can provide the remaining wood package and structural components needed for your pavilion.
Asphalt Shingle Features:
-
Traditional roofing appearance
-
Ideal for matching existing buildings
-
Shingles can be provided or sourced locally
-
Requires a tongue-and-groove wood ceiling
-
Compatible with custom pavilion designs
