Where are the Steel Building Prices?
The One Reason Why Steel Building Prices Aren’t Posted
If you’ve been scouring our website for steel building prices and come up empty-handed, don’t worry; it’s not an oversight on our part. Many customers frequently ask about this and don’t seem to understand why prices are not posted.
There’s a deliberate reason behind the absence of readily available steel building prices. Let’s delve into why steel building prices aren’t listed and explore how you can obtain a customized quote tailored to your specific needs.
Simply stated, the one reason why steel building prices are not posted is that an engineered steel building purchase is a custom priced quote, not to be compared or confused with a basic retail or online purchase.
All quotes are on a project-by-project basis. Even our clearance inventory is reviewed to ensure it is properly gauged for a new customer’s location and use.
One-size-fits-all purchases simply aren’t comparable to an engineered steel building. A building sold for Anchorage, Alaska will have significantly greater strength requirements than if it were destined for Austin, Texas, for example.
Comparing an Engineered Steel Building Purchase vs. a Simple Retail or Online Purchase
When it comes to investing in a building, you might be tempted to opt for a simple retail purchase from your local hardware, big box store or a generic building kit online.
While this may seem like a convenient and budget-friendly option initially, it’s essential to understand the stark differences between such purchases and investing in an engineered steel building made for your project.
An Engineered Steel Building Purchase:
The question of steel building prices doesn’t have a one-size-fits-all answer.
Our buildings are meticulously designed to meet your unique requirements, considering factors such as location, intended use, and local building codes.
These variables (some of which can change over time) directly influence the choice of steel gauge to ensure structural integrity against elements like wind, snow, and seismic loads.
Additionally, other design details like openings for doors and windows, as well as accessories or options, factor into the overall price of a building.
Our seasoned engineers and consultants leverage their expertise to tailor each structure, providing three sets of certified engineered drawings that guarantee compliance with your local building codes.
These drawings will assist our customers with their local permitting processes.
A Simple Retail or Online Purchase:
On the other hand, opting for a generic building kit or wooden construction from a retail outlet may seem like a cost-effective solution initially.
However, such purchases often lack customization and may not meet the stringent building codes and structural requirements for your region and likely won’t include any certified engineered drawings.
This can lead to potential issues during the permitting process and even legal ramifications if the structure fails to comply with your local regulations.
Moreover, the quality and durability of off-the-shelf kits may not match the longevity and reliability of an engineered steel building.
How To Get Steel Building Prices:
So, with this explanation out of the way, how do you get an accurate and meaningful price for your unique project?
When seeking a quote for your steel building, providing detailed information is crucial.
Specify your building’s planned location, size requirements, intended use, preferred accessories like insulation and ventilation, and structural elements such as foundation base plates, doors and/or windows.
Whether you have a specific building style in mind or need assistance in choosing, our team is here to guide you through the process.
Obtaining a quote is hassle-free—simply fill out our online form or give us a call, and our knowledgeable consultants will swiftly provide you with a personalized quote for your dream building.

Conclusion:

By opting for a customized quote tailored to your specific needs, you ensure transparency and peace of mind throughout the building process.
This explanation is also found on our website under the definition for what we call True Pricing.
On a side note, many of our ads do state the steel building prices via a starting price per square foot, so this helps our customers get a general idea. Additionally, you can visit our Clearance Buildings page here.
