Whether you’re planning to build a modest community gym or a sprawling sports complex, our metal buildings provide incredible design flexibility, durability, and value. This versatility has made our recreational metal buildings the preferred choice for cities, private entities, churches, and schools looking to develop cost-effective and robust athletic facilities.

You can rely on our seasoned building consultants to listen to your requirements. Our in-house design and engineering team will closely work with you to bring your vision and ideas to life and ensure the pre-engineered metal building fits your aesthetic and functional requirements.

Why should you choose recreational metal buildings?

Pre-engineered metal buildings for recreational purposes are worth considering if you’re looking to save on construction and maintenance costs without sacrificing style and functionality. Let’s look into the advantages of metal buildings for recreational facilities and how they’re revolutionizing the field.

Build quickly and efficiently.

Traditional construction can take months, but our pre-engineered steel buildings can be erected much more swiftly, especially if there are no extensive customizations. This means that your athletic facility can be operational in a fraction of the time it would take with traditional building methods.

Our buildings also come with easy-to-follow guides, detailed assembly drawings, and clearly marked components. The pre-punched holes and bolt-together connections simplify assembly for a quick and efficient building process.

By choosing our prefab recreational metal buildings, you can achieve more in less time. Our design and engineering experts streamline the process, taking the stress out of constructing a custom recreational metal building.

Flexibility for various activities

Athletic facilities need ample space for diverse activities. From basketball courts to indoor swimming pools, each sport requires a unique layout and specific dimensions.

Because they feature minimal interior columns, our pre-engineered metal buildings are ideal for this. We offer various framing systems, like modular and clearspan, allowing us to create recreational steel buildings with adaptable layouts for any sport or activity, ensuring optimal use of space.

An Armstrong steel building system can be combined with other materials and customized to any size based on your needs. This adaptability makes future expansions straightforward. You can easily add more space or reconfigure layouts as your facility grows or needs change.

For large facilities requiring wide-open interiors, our metal structures can span vast distances—something wood and traditional materials can’t match, providing more room for sports and recreational activities.

And if your needs change, it’s easy to adapt the building’s design to accommodate new features like offices, waiting areas, or additional facilities. This means your facility can evolve alongside your community’s needs. Our kits make it simple to modify spaces for sports and other activities so that your facility stays relevant and meets evolving requirements.

Tailored to your specific requirements

Worried your athletic facility might look like a warehouse? We understand these concerns, and this is why we customize recreational metal buildings to fit your aesthetic preferences. Tell us your vision, and we’ll ensure the building supports your desired wall design—from sleek modern finishes to traditional facades.

Our steel structures accommodate all designs, including metal panels, brick, CMU, and stucco. We also offer metal panels in various styles and profiles for any roofing or wall application and can customize colors to match your preferences, ensuring your facility has a unique and appealing look.

Low-maintenance and durable facilities

Pre-engineered metal buildings are robust and can resist extreme weather conditions. They withstand high winds, heavy snow, earthquakes, and hurricanes, making them ideal for regions prone to severe weather.

Applying Galvalume to roof panels adds rust protection, prolongs lifespan, and reduces maintenance needs. Plus, our steel buildings are non-combustible, offering added fire safety and creating a safer environment for athletes and visitors. All these characteristics make them ideal for sports complexes and recreational centers that require longevity and safety.

Worry-free buildings with solid warranties

Concerned about long-term issues like rust or paint peeling? With Armstrong Steel, you don’t have to worry. Armstrong Steel buildings come with extensive warranties for peace of mind:

• 50-year structural warranty
• 40-year paint warranty
• 35-year rust-through perforation warranty

This comprehensive coverage gives you confidence in the longevity and quality of your investment. You can be sure that your facility will stand strong and look great for decades

Cost-effective construction

Costs are a significant consideration for any new construction, including athletic facilities. Thankfully, steel buildings offer lower construction costs—from materials and assembly to maintenance. This translates into significant savings over the building’s lifespan, offering an economical solution for community and private sports facilities.

What’s more, our recreational metal buildings are also ready-to-erect, reducing labor costs and waste. The quicker you build your facility, the sooner it can be used.

Plus, these buildings require minimal maintenance. This low upkeep requirement reduces operational costs over time. And if any panels get damaged, they are easy to repair or replace. This results in lower long-term costs and less downtime. It also ensures that your facility remains in top condition, reflecting a professional and well-maintained image.
