Do It Yourself

How to Set-Up a Pre-Engineered Steel Building Yourself

To further cut costs, buyers can erect their own metal building. This will reduce expensive construction financing; faster erection means less expensive labour. Installation is manageable since components, structural columns and rafters are prefabricated at the manufacturing facility. With set anchor bolt plans and do it yourself instructions, buyers have the option of erecting their building without the additional cost and management of contracting out erectors. Be sure to familiarize yourself with construction drawing prior to erection. Also, be sure to perform an inventory check upon delivery of the metal building so if any issues or concerns arise, they can be dealt with as soon as possible to keep potential issues to a minimum. Backed by the necessary knowledge and industry experience, MetalCor’s staff are only a toll-free call away from answering all your questions and concerns. We ensure that you are taken care of, well equipped and informed when installing your metal building. An average time to erect a metal building with a three-member crew and the necessary equipment would take anywhere from 3-7 days depending on the size of the building. Renting out a track loader, front-end loader or forklift will help to complete the job, and be sure to get your hands on a screw gun, required to install the self drilling screws.
