Warning: Safety requires a commitment from everyone involved. Although erecting a bolt-together pre-engineered steel building does not require specialized skills like carpentry or masonry and many of our customers do it themselves, construction work is dangerous, and larger buildings bring larger hazards.

Everyone at the site should wear appropriate protective clothing, including:

• Hard hats

• Gloves

• Rubber-soled shoes

• Eye-protection

On the up side, your erectors will have an outstanding set of clear common-sense drawings and can call on us for support if necessary.

These kits are suitable for:

Please take some advice from us on the point of D.I.Y kits. Don't just focus on price: focus on cost. If the first question you're asking is "how much is it?" you may be guilty of focusing on the price instead of the cost. Depending on how you want to use your building, the cheapest purchase price may not be the cheapest overall cost. (Price and cost are different!). For instance, our price includes the design, the drawings, and the materials for the basic structure. But the building will also need some type of foundation (see also page A Little Gem About Foundations), and its construction will require labour, some tools, and in some cases with bigger buildings, even a crane. After that, the project cost will depend on your finishes. As you add features like electrical, heating and cooling, plumbing, flooring, landscaping, etc., the costs rise accordingly. There are a wide variety of additional extras available to compliment our buildings:  Alu-cushion Insulation under Roof Sheeting  Chromadek sheeting Side cladding Ventilation Sliding Doors Roller Shutter Doors Personnel Doors Windows Bull-noses Gable Cladding Clear polycarbonate sheeting Apart from being able to house overhead cranes the buildings can be designed to provide additional support for the crane structure. We can also provide the additional steel for any building utilizing overhead cranes.
