Can I Customize the Size, Color, Roof Style, and Finish of My Steel Building?

Quick Answer

Absolutely. TruSteel lets you set your own building footprint, pick standing-seam or screw-down metal roofs, and choose Galvalume or a full palette of factory-painted colors. Add overhangs, liner panels, insulation, and custom doors or windows so the finished structure matches your workflow and brand.

Detailed Answer

Customizing Your TruSteel Building

Every TruSteel kit is engineered to fit your site, your brand, and the tasks you perform inside. Below is a breakdown of the main ways you can personalize your building, without sacrificing the speed and savings of a pre-engineered system.

Tailor the Size and Layout to Your Needs

TruSteel starts with proven footprints such as 40 × 60, 80 × 100, and 100 × 200, but engineers can adjust length, width, and eave height in one-foot increments. Clear-span frames remove interior columns so forklifts, RVs, or conveyor lines can move freely.

If you outgrow the space, reach out to us to help plan an end wall extension and add new bays. Matching frames and roof lines ensure the expansion looks seamless and meets the same local code requirements as the original build.

Choose Your Roof Style and Performance Upgrades

TruSteel offers two roof systems – 24-gauge standing seam for long-term weather tightness and 26-gauge screw-down panels for budget-minded projects. Both come in bare Galvalume or factory-painted finishes, and you can add a factory-applied DripX™ moisture barrier to tame condensation in humid climates.

Owners may also adjust roof pitch and overhang depth to match regional snow loads or desired aesthetics, ensuring both performance and curb appeal line up with project goals.

Pick Colors, Panels, and Exterior Finishes

Factory paint lines give you dozens of standard colors plus custom matches for corporate branding. You can mix roof, wall, and trim colors or add wainscot panels for a two-tone effect. Interior liner panels protect insulation and create a bright, easy-to-clean wall surface.

Common panel profiles include:

  • R-panel for cost-effective cladding
  • Standing seam for sleek, hidden-fastener looks
  • Architectural panel options that mimic stucco or board-and-batten

Add Architectural Details for Curb Appeal

Want a residential vibe? TruSteel can extend roof overhangs, enclose soffits, and integrate faux stone or brick façades.

Plan for Interior Build-Out and Future Growth

The bolt-together frame accepts mezzanines, partition walls, and HVAC chases without extra welding. Pre-punched purlins simplify hanging lights or sprinkler lines, and framed openings arrive ready for overhead doors, storefront glass, or bi-fold aircraft doors – whatever your operation demands.

When you work with TruSteel, customization isn’t an upgrade – it’s built into the engineering. Share your must-have features with their design team, and they’ll return stamped plans and a detailed quote that locks in pricing and lead time before fabrication begins.
