How Long Does Metal Building Installation Take?

As a general example, an average 6,000-square-foot building can typically be erected in about one week once your steel building kit, the crew and equipment are on-site. Smaller backyard shops and garages may take even less time, depending on their size, design, site conditions, available equipment, and the experience of the installation crew.

One of the biggest advantages of a pre-engineered steel building is how quickly it can be assembled once the site is ready.

What Can Affect Steel Building Installation Time?

Every project is different, so the actual installation schedule can vary. Factors include:

• Building size and complexity
• Site conditions, and accessibility for delivery trucks, cranes, lifts, and other equipment
• Crew experience and available equipment
• Foundation readiness
• Building accessories and custom features
• Weather conditions

Does Lucas Metal Works® Install Buildings?

No. We manufactures and ship your steel building package, but do not provide turnkey erection or concrete work directly. We do work with a network of independent contractors and can help connect you with experienced concrete and steel-erection professionals within your area.
