Custom Steel Shop in Denham Springs, Louisiana
A client in Denham Springs, Louisiana, needed a versatile shop building with a high wind load due to the area’s heavy winds and storm activity, and Metal Building Outlet delivered, sending the kit for this prefabricated steel shop to the buyer’s erection site in August of 2023.
The building has custom features throughout, including an upgraded, standing-seam roof, an expandable rigid-frame end wall and X-bracing along its front and back side walls. The partially enclosed steel shop also has 32,000 square feet of usable interior space and high, 50’ ceilings that create additional room for storage or other uses.
On the outside, the shop building has Ash Gray exterior walls and Charcoal Gray trim boosting its curb appeal, and there are also Charcoal Gray gutters and downspouts that help rain drain off easily without damaging the building’s outside walls. The buyer also purchased the steel building at a low price after taking advantage of a discount Metal Building Outlet offers to contractors.
