Arch-style & straight-wall roofing
Steel
Roofing Systems
Toro's steel roofing systems are engineered roof structures that cover containers, equipment, vehicles and open work areas. Choose a self-supporting arch or a straight-wall frame with a pitched roof. Both ship as pre-cut, pre-drilled kits you can bolt together yourself or with a local contractor.
How much does a steel roofing system cost?
Toro's steel roofing systems start at $19 per sq ft (USD) or $26 per sq ft (CAD) for the kit, and every system is quoted to make sure it meets the loads and codes for your location and use. Price depends on the width and length you need to cover, the profile (arch or straight-wall), end walls or doors, and the snow and wind loads at your site. Delivery usually takes 2–8 weeks (confirm with a building specialist).
The case for steel
Why choose a steel roof structure?
A steel roof structure gives you strong, permanent cover without the cost of a fully enclosed building. It's engineered for the snow and wind loads at your site and won't rot, warp or attract pests. Arch-style systems are manufactured by our sister company, Future Buildings, and sold through Toro. Straight-wall systems are manufactured directly by Toro.
Structural integrity
Engineered as part of the building, whether an arch or a straight-wall frame carries the load.
A clean aesthetic
A curved arch or a conventional pitched roofline, to suit a business, farm, or home.
DIY Assembly
Ships pre-cut and pre-drilled with engineer-stamped drawings, so you or a local contractor can bolt it together.
Versatile
Shelter RVs, trailers, and boats, or cover equipment, livestock, and work areas.
Two roofing profiles
Arch-style or straight-wall: which steel roof is right for you?
Profile 01
Straight-wall
Vertical walls topped with a separate roof structure, giving you more usable wall space and a more conventional appearance. Roof accessories are designed to work with your roof pitch, panel profile, and structural framing.
Profile 02
Arch Style
A single self-supporting curved structure that serves as both roof and walls, which is typically faster to erect. The arch carries the load, with no interior columns or braces required. It’s a simple, efficient way to cover open space.

Questions, answered
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Steel roofing systems can be customized in terms of span, profile, finish, and integration with straight-wall or arched designs to match both functional and aesthetic goals.
Steel roofs are light in weight compared to other existing roofing materials. Steel roofs tend to be about 50% lighter than most asphalt roofs and do not need additional support.
In some circumstances, metal roofing panels can be installed directly over an existing roof. Doing so helps to save labour and time and eliminates disposal costs. Working with a professional company will help you determine whether this is a suitable option for your structure.
Yes, snow will slide off metal roofing systems. Metal roofs can be fitted with snow guards to prevent snow from sliding down and damaging the surroundings or hurting someone walking past.
Although the upfront costs of buying and installing metal roofing systems tend to be higher than those of shingles, metal roofs will last longer and need less frequent replacements and repairs. Generally, a shingle roof will last between 12 and 20 years, depending on weather conditions and maintenance. However, metal roofs can last for 40 to 60 years and require less maintenance, making them a more cost-effective option with long-term value.
Yes. Not only is metal recyclable, but because prefab roofing systems are built in a factory, you'll reduce the number of materials that you waste by a substantial amount. As such, prefab roofs are much more eco-friendly than traditionally built roofs.
