About Superior Shelter
Superior Shelter has spent 50+ years perfecting the art of designing the ideal steel shelter. Our line delivers creative solutions and unique designs to solve your biggest need — an architectural design that provides protection from the sun and weather.
From Litchfield to Now
From our humble beginnings as Litchfield Industries, we’ve since grown to include many styles of steel pavilions for outdoor recreation sites. This, along with our 50+ years of experience has allowed us to provide shelter structures for nearly every outdoor location and application. What’s more, our park pavilions and gazebos help create outdoor environments that bring communities together.
Serving Multiple Markets
We serve a variety of markets including parks and recreation, sports facilities, zoos, aquariums, housing developments, business and office parks, hospitality, schools, and universities.
Features & Benefits Our Top Features, Your Benefits
Reduce Temperature
A Superior Shelter outdoor pavilion can reduce temperatures underneath the pavilion to create cooler spaces to gather.
Made In the USA
Our shelter structures are made less than 10 miles off the coast of Lake Michigan in Holland, Michigan.
Meet Local Building Codes
You won’t have to worry about meeting local building codes. We have on-staff engineers that will work with you to ensure your shade meet your local building codes. You may purchase engineered sealed drawings should your city require them.
Withstand Wind Gusts & Snow Loads
Our commercial shelter structures are much different than homemade versions. Our outdoor pavilions, pergolas, and more have framework that withstand high winds and heavy snow loads.
Don’t Stress About Maintenance
Our shelter structures are low-maintenance. The most important thing about maintaining your shelter structure is to ensure tightness of bolts and patching over deep paint scratches to avoid rusting.
