Storage Buildings Designed According to Your Needs
Working with General Steel is a collaborative process that ensures that your final product reflects your specific needs. The process starts with a two-way conversation between you and our experienced team. We want to know exactly how you will be using your metal storage building, how it will fit on your property, and your ideas for interior and exterior design, among other factors. We then research the location of the storage building to ensure that it’s equipped to withstand the wind and snow loads of your area as well as any insulation requirements.
Once we get an idea of what building kit best suits your project, we work with you to add customization options, including a wide variety of doors, windows, and exterior color schemes. The ease of steel construction allows us to modify layouts and add further customizations without breaking your budget. From design to construction, we provide the materials and expertise to transform a building kit into a reliable storage building.
Save 50% Over Traditional Construction
One key advantage in choosing a steel building over more traditional building materials is the speed of construction. When you receive your building kit from General Steel, it is ready to be erected. With simple bolt-together construction, you can quickly erect your storage building. The more efficient timeline of steel construction over traditional materials will also save up to 50% on time and material costs.
Steel is the world’s premier building material because of its strength and durability. Steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any construction material, which means steel components add strength without adding stress to a building’s frame. This strength gives you more flexibility when it comes to designing a building that will adequately shelter your assets.

How much does a metal storage building cost?
There are three factors that affect the price of your building. The first is design, which includes all of the custom features that you choose. The second is the price of steel, which can fluctuate daily based on the market. The third is economies of scale, which affects the price per square foot.
Why is a preengineered building the best choice for a storage building?
A preengineered building provides the best value due to its clear span framing, which allows for column-free interiors. This gives you the most space possible at the lowest price.
Do I need a garage or a storage building?
These terms can be used to describe the same thing, but generally, a storage building is larger and used for more than just vehicles. Prefab storage buildings can be used for warehouse operations, agricultural operations, RV storage, furniture storage, and any other valuable goods that require safe and reliable storage.
