How Much Does a Metal Storage Facility Cost?
There are many factors affecting the total cost of building a metal storage facility. Generally, metal building construction ranges from about $25 to $30 per square foot, with more complex buildings may cost $30 or more per square foot.
What Factors Affect the Cost of a Metal Storage Facility
Several factors can impact the cost of a metal storage building. Here is an overview of some things that may affect the total cost of your project.
Size
The size of a metal building is one of the most critical factors impacting its total cost. A small, 10×10 metal storage shed may range from $2,500 to $3,000 or more, while a large 100×100 metal storage facility may cost between $250,000 to $300,000 or more.

Materials
The type and cost of materials will impact the overall cost of your project. The price of steel can fluctuate substantially over months and years. There are also several types of metal buildings, each using different materials with different costs.
In addition to steel costs, interior finishing materials, insulation, and exterior material costs also impact the total cost of the building.
Location
The location of your building can impact its overall cost. Local building codes, labor costs, foundation costs, equipment rentals, and other construction-related costs can affect the price of your metal building.
You may also customize your metal building with features that allow it to withstand local weather and climate-related conditions. For example, you may include features that provide additional strength in hurricane-strength winds or earthquakes. Or, your manufacturer may add specialized coatings to help your building withstand high humidity or flooding. These customizations may affect the cost of your metal storage building.
Additional features
Adding windows, skylights, doors, insulation, HVAC systems, and other features can affect the overall cost of your project. Contact the Titan Steel Structures team to get a free quote for your project.
