Metal Prefab Buildings: Oh So Nice!

Forget what you probably think of when you hear the word metal prefab. The days of just simple garages, or storage units and modular boxes are over. Metal prefab buildings have moved into the mainstream, from high end residential homes, to large multifamily buildings or commercial offices and retail centers, metal prefab is here to stay. And for good reason.

Steel is one of the most renewable resources on earth, and currently all steel being produced contains 75-85% recycled content, making it also one of the greenest materials on earth. Inexpensive to produce, unmatched building times, and fire resistance and overall durability are just a few in a long list of benefits people are beginning to see from their metal prefab buildings. What does this mean? Lower insurance, LEED certification, rebates, and lower maintenance costs just to start!

Metal Prefab Building Misconceptions

But many people have misconceptions about metal prefab and what it actually means. A metal prefab building is really just a kit of construction parts, in general, which is manufactured at an off-site facility and shipped to location where it is erected on site. This usually means that a few months worth of build time can be reduced to just a few weeks. This isn't to be confused with modular, where a standard building is produced in a factory and shipped assembled to site. A good metal prefab building supplier will be able to work with you personally to either use your plans or help you to find ones right for you so you end up with a 100% custom building.

Metal Prefab Buildings Are Attractive!

Metal Prefab BuildingsAnother misconception is that metal buildings are by definition bland or ugly. This couldn't be further from the truth, especially today. Modern finish technology allows steel buildings to fill nearly any design style and aesthetic desired, from stucco or granite finish, to flat or corrugated panels, chances are you've passed many metal prefab buildings without ever knowing it. In some cases you may have even been in one without ever knowing it!
