Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can I get my steel building after ordering?

We know timing matters! Our lead times vary by building type, so you can plan your project with confidence:

Cold Form Buildings: Ready in about 8 weeks for kits, 10 weeks with installation.
Square Tube/Mini Buildings: Kits in 4 weeks, 6-8 weeks with installation.
Red Iron Buildings: After permits, expect kits in 3.5 months and installation in 4.5 months (depending on size).

For custom orders, we’ll keep you informed every step of the way to ensure a smooth process.

Will my steel building stand up to my location's weather conditions?

Absolutely! Our steel buildings are engineered to handle diverse and challenging weather conditions across the U.S., including high wind speeds and heavy snow loads. Simply provide us with your local building codes and load requirements, and we'll ensure your building is designed to meet those specific standards. For all Cold Form and Red Iron Builds, we include stamped structural drawings to help streamline the permitting process. For Square Tube builds, please note that additional engineering may be necessary if wind speeds exceed 115 mph or snow loads surpass 35 psf, which may involve extra charges.

What makes steel a better choice than wood for large buildings?

Steel is unmatched in strength, durability, and resilience, making it ideal for large buildings like vehicle storage, horse arenas, and warehouses. Unlike wood, steel is fire-resistant, won’t warp or rot, and requires minimal maintenance, which means lower long-term costs. Plus, steel structures can span greater distances without support beams, maximizing interior space. Discover why steel outshines wood!
