Frequently Asked Questions

What if I'm not sure what type of building I need?

We're here to help! Think about your building's purpose—home, large commercial use, storage, workshop, or something else—and the basic dimensions you'll need. If you're unsure about sizing or specifications, don't worry. Our building experts are just a phone call away and can walk you through the options to find the perfect fit.

Will my building meet local building codes?

Absolutely! Armstrong Steel Buildings are engineered to comply with all U.S. and International building codes, including applicable snow and wind loads for your location. We help to ensure your building meets the required standards.

Why choose steel over traditional construction?

Great question! Metal buildings are faster to build, more affordable, and built to last. Steel won't rot, crack, or attract pests like traditional materials can. They're also incredibly strong—designed to handle serious snow and wind loads—and require very little maintenance over the years. Add in the fact that steel is highly recyclable and you can customize the design to fit your needs, and it's easy to see why so many people are choosing metal.

Who will erect my Armstrong Steel Building System?

Many of our customers install their buildings themselves using the easy-to-follow erection drawings and manual that come with every Armstrong Steel Building. You may also choose to hire a contractor to put up your building. Not sure who to call? We can connect you with an Authorized Armstrong Builder who has trusted experience erecting buildings.

How long does it take before my building is delivered?

Every building is custom-engineered and fabricated, so delivery times depend on the size and complexity of your specific order. Want a more accurate timeline? Your Armstrong Project Manager can walk you through what to expect for your particular project after your design is finalized.

Can I choose my building's design and colors?

Absolutely, every building is custom tailored to your needs. We offer a wide palette of colors for your wall panels, trim, and accessories. All buildings include our industry-standard galvalume roof finish, and colored roof panels are available as an upgrade option. Color selections may vary depending on your panel type, so just let us know what you have in mind and we'll help you create the perfect look.
