Metal Buildings in Bennett

Bennett landowners call us for clear-span metal buildings for contractors, businesses and farms. Bennett is about 61 miles south of our base in Ault, CO, and Adams County is one of the three counties we build in.

This is acreage and horse-property country: barns with stalls and a tack room, loafing sheds, shops with an RV bay, detached garages and barndominiums on a few acres, often with an HOA or covenant to check before the plans are drawn.

The quote is free: tell us the size, what the building is for and where the property is.

What's included

Metal Buildings we do in Bennett

  • 01

    Pre-engineered red-iron buildings

    A pre-engineered metal building has its frames designed for your size, use and site loads before the steel is fabricated. The result is a wide floor with no columns in the way.

  • 02

    Post-frame metal buildings

    Laminated wood columns, trusses, purlins and girts clad in steel, a strong fit for farm, storage and shop buildings that you want to insulate and line inside.

  • 03

    Business and commercial space

    Room for a contractor's trucks and materials, a fleet, inventory or a showroom, insulated and lined when you need heated space.

  • 04

    Farm and ag steel buildings

    Machine storage, shop space and commodity storage for farms and dairies, with doors sized for the equipment that has to get through them.

  • 05

    Foundations and erection

    Footings and slab poured with anchor bolts placed for the steel, then the frames stood, the secondary framing run, and the building braced and squared by our own crew.

  • 06

    Panels, doors and insulation

    Steel roof and wall panels in heavier gauges for hail, wind-rated overhead and sliding doors, walk doors and windows, plus insulation and a vapor barrier to stop condensation under the roof.

Adams County, Colorado

Metal Buildings around Bennett

We build all over Bennett and the rest of Adams County, including nearby Strasburg, Watkins and Aurora.

Bennett is an eastern Adams County town on I-70, in open farm and ranch country. Bennett is about 61 miles south of our base in Ault, CO, and Adams County is one of the three counties we build in.

Northern Colorado asks a lot of a building: spring hail, strong winds off the foothills and across the plains, heavy wet snow, swelling clay soil along the Front Range, and cold winters followed by hot, dry summers. So every building starts with engineered plans for the site's snow and wind loads, footings designed for the soil and set below the frost line, a pad that drains, and insulation, vapor control and ventilation planned in from day one.

Ideas for your project

Metal Buildings: what they can look like

  • Ironworkers setting a red-iron steel frame from a crane basket
  • Steel building frame with columns, beams and bracing before the panels go on
  • Inside a red-iron steel building with rigid frames and a long clear span
  • Large metal hangar building with its wide bay door open

How it works

How your Bennett metal building job works

  1. 1

    Free on-site quote

    Describe the building you have in mind and the property it will sit on, by phone or the form. A local builder calls back, meets you at the site and prices the job at no cost.

  2. 2

    Steel or post frame, engineered

    We help you pick red iron or post frame for your span and use, then have the building and foundation engineered for the site's snow and wind loads and its soil.

  3. 3

    Permit and site work

    We check the county or city requirements and pull the permit, then grade the site and pour the footings below the frost line.

  4. 4

    Erect and close in

    Our crew stands the frame, puts on the roof and wall panels, hangs the doors, sets the windows and insulates, then walks the finished building with you.

Questions

Metal Buildings in Bennett: FAQs

Do you build metal buildings in Bennett, CO?

Yes. Bennett is about 61 miles south of our base in Ault, CO, and Adams County is one of the three counties we build in. We build clear-span metal buildings for contractors, businesses and farms there, and the quote is free.

Do I need a permit for a metal building in Bennett?

Usually. When one is needed, we pull it from the Bennett or Adams County building department, depending on which side of the town limits the property is on with engineered plans and build to whatever the permit and inspections require.

How much does a steel building cost?

Footprint, wall height and clear span drive most of the price. After that come the frame type, the snow and wind design, the foundation, the doors and insulation, and how much work the site needs. We price each building for its own site, so the way to a real figure is a free quote: send the size and use, and a local builder will follow up with pricing.

Does a metal building need a permit?

In most cases, yes. A metal building usually needs a building permit and inspections from Larimer, Weld or Adams County or from the city, though some counties exempt qualifying agricultural buildings. In Larimer County's foothills, wildfire hazard rules also apply, and a steel roof and siding suit them. We check what applies to your parcel and pull the permit with engineered plans.

Do you erect the steel yourselves?

Yes. Our crew pours the foundation, stands the frames, and installs the panels, doors and insulation. There is no handoff between a concrete company, an erector and a door installer, so nothing falls through the gap between trades.

Red iron or post frame: which metal building is right for me?

Pick red iron for the widest spans and tallest walls, and post frame for most farm, storage and shop buildings. The skin is the same steel; the frame is what changes. A red-iron building stands on rigid steel frames anchored in concrete, which is what makes the long, column-free spans possible. A post-frame building stands on laminated wood columns and trusses, which take insulation, liner panels and interior finish easily.
