Commercial Storage Units
commercial storage unit kits / commercial self storage units / commercial storage buildings
The application of steel structure commercial storage units is very common in the 21st century, mainly because of its convenient application and good effect. In many cases, these steel-structure commercial spaces also play an important role and are environmentally friendly. Most processing manufacturers, such as some current logistics manufacturers, use steel structure commercial storage units to complete work points. This commercial storage building has a large space, a wide range, and sufficient space for installation and equipment. We don’t need to worry about this. The change of the times has made steel structure warehousing gradually popular.

The Most Popular Types of Steel Structure Commercial Storage buildings
1. Brick Steel Structure Commercial Storage Building
This structure is a cast-in-place reinforced concrete structure for the main frame and a sintered brick structure for the wall. In China, industrial plants before the 1990s mainly used this structure, and on-site manual wet production was used during construction. This method not only has low production efficiency, long construction period, high investment cost, but also pollutes the environment. This type of plant is generally used for about 30 years and is not earthquake-resistant. Once a large-scale earthquake occurs, it is easy to collapse. Building energy conservation is now advocated. With the changes of the times, this structure will gradually fade out of the market.
2. Concrete Steel Structure Commercial Storage Building
This structure uses steel structure as the main frame and brick walls as the enclosure system. It can meet the functions of large span, anti-corrosion, fire prevention, etc., so the utilization rate is still very high. However, the investment cost of this structure is relatively high, and it needs to be renovated after completion. If it is renovated alone, its building materials cannot be recycled after demolition, which does not meet the needs of sustainable development of the current mainstream economy in the world.
3. All-steel structure Commercial Storage Building
All the components of the all-steel structure workshop are made of metal materials. The anchor bolts, steel columns, steel beams, sandalwood bars, supports, etc. are all steel products. The walls and roofs are also made of color steel metal plates. These materials not only Light weight, high strength, quick disassembly and assembly, short construction time, recyclable and reusable, it is one of the most earthquake-resistant building types in the world.
When designing a steel self-storage unit, it is important to choose a material that balances durability with aesthetics and maintenance needs. Steel happens to check all of these boxes, which is why it’s the material of choice for commercial self-storage units.

The Advantages of Using Steel in Commercial Storage Units
1. Resist bad weather conditions
When it comes to durability, few building materials can beat steel. Red iron and steel buildings can withstand high winds, snow, hail, and even fire. Remember, the durability of steel buildings is closely related to the quality of the metal used to make them. To ensure your building is durable enough to withstand harsh weather conditions and stay within specification, it’s best to stick to steel components made by large, reputable manufacturers.
2. Minimal maintenance requirements
Steel storage facilities do not require extensive maintenance to maintain their durability. Their minimal maintenance needs mean owners can save a lot on their annual maintenance costs.
Here’s a tip: To maximize maintenance savings, contractors recommend installing metal roofing panels with a protective coating. Metal roofing systems have an average lifespan of over 30 years, but with a protective coating and proper maintenance, they can easily last up to 70 years.
3. Fast assembly time
Another factor to consider when planning a storage building is assembly time, which can affect labor costs. Because the components of a prefabricated steel building are pre-cut and ready for assembly, it takes less time to build a prefabricated steel building, helping you save on labor costs.
4. Design flexibility
To maximize your return on investment, a little future-proofing is required. For example, you need to ensure that your storage facility can be expanded if storage needs increase. Steel buildings are easier to expand than other buildings, thanks to a wide range of accessory styles, profiles, colors and finishes for their components.
What are the steps required to build a steel structure commercial storage building?
1. Pre-planning
Firstly, please clarify the function and purpose of your Commercial Storage Units, such as the type of goods you want to store, any special requirements for storage conditions, and whether there are any special ventilation requirements for the entire Commercial Storage Unit; What is the size of the entire steel structure Commercial Warehouse? What are your zoning requirements for Storage Unit?
If you have a ideal building location, you can inquire about the highest wind speed, snowfall, earthquake level, and other relevant information in the area and provide it to us. If you are not familiar with this, our professional team can also assist you in determining environmental information based on the building address you provide.
2. Customize your Design
When you have a preliminary plan, we can provide customized designs for your Commercial Storage Units. Based on your basic information, our technicians will fully balance safety and practicality, and customize the most suitable and economical solution and budget for you through reasonable structural design and material selection.
For example, if you want to build a large commercial storage unit of 4000 square meters to store paper products. So moisture and fire prevention are very important. In terms of building span, we would recommend adopting a multi-span design of 20 meters span x 2 spans and setting reasonable column spacing based on your forklift operating radius to minimize the interference of internal columns on forklift operations.
Of course, if you have site limitations or span requirements, please let us know and our professional engineers will tailor it for you.
Different Types of Commercial Storage Unit Steel Structures
You can add a brick wall of about 50cm to effectively prevent moisture from entering the steel structure space. The wall can be made of insulated sandwich panels to keep the entire storage room in a constant temperature state. According to the local humidity, professional dehumidifiers, exhaust fans, and reasonable exhaust skylights can be configured to control the indoor environment of the entire steel structure commercial storage within the most suitable range for storing paper products.
In addition, the steel structure itself has fireproof performance, so you should pay attention to the fireproof requirements when choosing the maintenance structure. Usually, color steel sheets are a more economical choice. If you have higher standards, you can choose sandwich panels. When selecting insulation sandwich panels, you should also consider fireproof materials, such as rock wool. If you want to achieve a better sealing effect, you can upgrade the wall panels specially designed for the edge according to your budget. Below is a sample view of the maintenance system.
Different types of wall systems for steel structures：
Color steel sheet options:
Sandwich wall & roof panel options:
Wall panel -pu sandwich panel 
Wall panel -rock wool sandwich panel
