Why Choose Commercial Metal Storage Buildings?
Affordability – Prefabricated metal buildings are made in a factory at a large scale and standard size, which reduces the initial cost. Their maintenance cost is also lower than traditional structures, which saves money in the long run.
Quick Installation – Time is money for commercial property owners. A prefab steel industrial building can be installed quickly and needs less labor. This reduces the waiting time and labor costs. Businesses get less interruption in ongoing tasks, and the building is ready for use earlier.
Clear Span Interior – A steel structure can be designed for up to 300 ft. wide without any internal supporting columns or walls, giving free-flowing space to set up manufacturing machines and equipment.
Expandability – You can expand your metal building in the future by adding extra lean-tos or by removing end walls to increase length. This takes less time and money, and you get more space to work.
Strength – Structural steel is incredibly strong. It can bear more load than traditional material and be lightweight at the same time. Hence, even larger buildings won’t need thicker columns or posts, like wood, for roof support. This will give you more usable space.
Weather Resistance – Certified steel buildings can withstand wind speeds of up to 180 mph and snow loads of up to 80 PSF. You can call us at [phone number] to learn more about metal building certifications.
Create Unique Commercial Metal Buildings With Custom Features
What’s the height of a commercial metal structure? Do commercial buildings have insulation on metal roof? Can I choose colors for a steel building? The answer to these questions is in the customization. You can select individual features of a steel building based on your business needs and wants. Some of them are listed below:
Width – You can choose a width of up to 600 ft. (multi-span) or opt for a clear span design with a width of up to 300 ft. A clear span building has an interior free from internal columns or walls.
Length – Usually, the length can be up to 200 ft., but you can customize it based on needs and local building code rules.
Height – A commercial steel structure is usually about 20 ft. tall but can be up to 40 ft. or more, depending on the use case.
Material Thickness – You can select either a 12-gauge or 14-gauge steel frame and choose between 29-gauge or 26-gauge metal panels.
Lean-To – It can be on either side, front, or back of the building. Its length can be the same as the building's length. Its height is lower than the main building.
Roof Style – The metal building comes with three roofing styles – regular, boxed eave (also known as horizontal), and vertical roofs. Where a regular roof is affordable and suits small structures like metal outdoor sheds, a horizontal roof gives a traditional appeal. For harsh weather and high durability, you can choose a vertical roofing style.
Insulation – We provide single/ double bubble insulation and woven R17 insulators to maintain indoor temperature and for a comfortable workspace.
Two-Tone Color Options – It enhances the look of a commercial metal structure. You can choose a darker color for the lower section (wainscoting), which helps hide dirt and wear.
Custom Doors And Windows – You can customize the height and width of doors and frameouts to fit your business needs. Windows will bring natural light and fresh airflow inside the building.
Colors – You can choose colors for roof panels, side and end walls, structural trim, wainscoting, and doors.
The thickness of steel frames, panels, and insulation & ventilation for moisture control are a few basic points that you can consider when designing an industrial metal workshop. Consider creating sections for workstations, restrooms, office desks, and bay areas for vehicle repairs. To get a free quote on your custom commercial building, call us at (704)-579-6966 today!

Factors Influencing Commercial Metal Building Cost
Current Market Price of Steel – Steel is a global commodity.
Dimensions – The wider and taller metal building will cost more.
Design – A complex design with a lot of features will take time to install and need extra materials
Material Quality – A 12-gauge metal building will cost more than a 14-gauge one, but it also provides higher durability and lasts longer.
Location – Installation site and local labor rates will influence the overall cost of the metal building project.
Foundation – Most metal commercial buildings will need a concrete base with reinforcement. The depth of the base will depend on the frost line, traffic inside the building, loads, and type of soil.
Strictness of Local Codes – Areas prone to strong wind, heavy snow, and earthquakes have stringent construction regulations to follow, which may affect the final price.
Utilities & Permit – Most commercial structures will need electricity and water supply. Thus, you have to include the cost of the permit, proximity to utility lines, and permit fees in the total cost.
