Galvanized metal panels have a zinc coating that helps protect the steel from moisture and rust. They provide a metal option for enclosing the open space around the base of your mobile home.
A skirting installation may need more than just the panels. J-rail and divider bars help create the framing and finished edges around the installation, and you can find these pieces alongside the metal skirting panels.
Metal and vinyl give you different options for mobile home skirting. Metal provides a rigid panel option, while vinyl is lighter and can be easier to handle and replace in individual sections. Compare the two materials based on the conditions around your home and the type of installation you want.
Metal skirting panels and trim can be shipped nationwide or picked up at our 7 North Carolina locations in Fayetteville, Erwin, Sanford, Goldsboro, Winston-Salem, and Ramseur. Call 800-368-6208 to confirm availability at your preferred location before making the trip.
Measure and confirm these four details before ordering your metal skirting.
Measure from the ground to the bottom of the home at several points around the perimeter. Ground level can vary, so use the tallest measurement when ordering your panels. You can cut shorter sections to fit during installation.
Metal panels need a solid surface to fasten to. If you already have a 2x4 frame from an old skirting installation, check the wood for rot or damage before reusing it. If there is no framing, you will need to add it before installing the panels.
Use sheet metal screws with rubber washers to fasten the panels and seal around the screw holes. Check that you have the right screws before starting the installation.
Decide how you will finish the corners before cutting the panels. You can notch and bend the panel or use separate corner trim. Measure carefully either way, since an incorrect corner cut can waste a panel. Check our returns and refunds policy before opening your order.
The total cost depends on the amount of skirting needed and the panels, rails, and trim required for the installation. Our galvanized panels and trim pieces are priced individually. Call 800-368-6208 with your home's perimeter measurement, and we can help determine the quantities you need.
Skirting requirements can vary by local building codes, manufactured home communities, and installation conditions. Check with your local building department or park management to confirm what is required where you live. You can also compare the available materials on our mobile home skirting page.
You can buy purpose-made metal skirting panels and the matching installation pieces from mobile home supply stores. We carry galvanized metal panels, J-rail, and divider bars for mobile home skirting.
Impacts from lawn equipment, tools, or other objects can dent or scratch metal skirting. Scratches that expose the metal can also allow moisture to reach the surface, so damaged areas should be touched up to help protect against rust. Check the panels and fasteners periodically for damage or loose connections.
No. Bury the bottom edge or set it into a trench with a couple of inches of gravel underneath, then backfill. A panel resting on bare soil wicks moisture up into the galvanized coating and rusts from the bottom edge first.
Not usually on its own. Metal conducts both heat and cold, so an insulated panel provides limited benefit unless there is a vapor barrier and the underside is sealed against outside air. Foam board installed against the framing does more to improve underfloor temperatures.
