Installation of prefab metal buildings is a challenging task for first-time buyers. If you have ordered DIY Kit, you are solely responsible for its installation based on its user manual. However, when buying a standard steel building, the manufacturer sends a team for quick delivery and installation.

In the installation phase, there are many do’s and don’ts that you must follow vigorously and ensure an error-free, secure installation at your site.

DO Check Your Jobsite:

Before taking any step forward, you must consider checking the job site and ensure the land is eligible for installation. You should also check the documents and job site information guide that will give you detailed knowledge about the site and give you an estimated projection of metal building dimensions.

DO Wise Selection from Different Building Types:

Different metal building designs are available, including barns, carports, garages, workshops, and more. You have the liberty to choose any one among them, matching your needs and budget.

Viking Steel Structures provide a wide range of buying options that are available with seasonal offers and the lowest price. Above all, metal buildings are cost-effective, regardless of what design you choose for your land.

Do Treat Every Building Component Wisely:

The metal building arrives at your land in prefabricated format. Hence, it’s crucial to care for every component wisely. If you miss any prefab component, it will cause a delay in your installation. Moreover, it might keep your building incomplete till the final component arrives. In short, you won’t be able to install a weather-resistant structure that can keep your essentials safe.

DO Adequate Use of Sealant:

Sealant is the essential component that helps in temperature control and builds a protective shield between the steel panels and joints. The connections in your steel building invite condensation that creates various problems for your structure. Remember, always work with the sealant at normal temperature. At hot or cold temperatures, the sealant might prevent adhesion to the surface.

DON’T Buy from Unauthorised Dealers:

Before you order a steel building from a dealer, make sure the dealer is authorized and has served numerous customers in the past. You can thoroughly research the dealer, buildings offered, price tag, and previous customers. The structure can judge the quality of steel. So, it’s better to check for an authorized steel building dealer in your reach.

DON’T Hire Third-Party Installers:

Once the building components arrive at your land, ensuring the right installation is essential. Some dealers don’t provide metal building installation free of cost, making it a great deal. However, some manufacturers/dealers might add extra charges. So, you must check whether e the installation is included in the final pricing or not.

Even if you encounter a stage when third-party installers are required, research thoroughly and ask for local references to conclude.

DON’T Neglect Safety:

Safety is always the first priority when you are working with big machines. The metal building installation team will take care of the entire process. However, what matters the most is wearing safety equipment and guards to prevent any mishappening.

Metal building owner becomes questionable in case of any mishappening. You must know the safety precautions and ensure the installation team follows the same. Once the entire installation team is sure about their safety, they can proceed further and complete the installation process.
