Some of the things our Salt Lake Utah self storage building buyers love about steel buildings!

Durability: The materials used in self storage buildings can withstand even the most severe of weather conditions. Large balls of hail, lightning rods, and high-speed winds are no match for a self storage building. Not only do they hold up well in all types of weather, they also stand the test of time and will last decades without showing much wear and tear, if any. Ease of maintenance: There are no worries of roof shingles that need to be replaced, deteriorating exterior materials, or hard-to-clean surfaces on a steel building. A simple hose-down periodically will keep your building clean and have it looking excellent.

Simplicity: There are few materials involved with a self storage building and the structure itself is extremely simple. They are easy to put together in a short amount of time because of their simple nature. On a prepared slab, a 1200 ft. structure can go up in as little as a few hours.

Flexibility: You can build nearly anything with a self storage building. Doors or any type, windows, even plush interiors can all be part of these types of structures with a little planning.

Affordability: The materials used to create a self storage building are far less expensive than the concrete, lumber, brick, etc. needed to construct other types of structures. The property taxes are also much lower because the value of the self storage building is likely to be seen as less valuable than many other types of constructed buildings.

Quality Steel Materials:Self Storage Buildings are unmatched in outdoor strength and durability. But a self storage building also offers great resistance to wear and tear from the elements compared to other building materials like wood. A well built and insulated steel building will last decades with minimal need for maintenence.
