Know All About Metal Building Delivery & Estimates with Viking Steel Structures

Your metal building order is complete and is in manufacturing stage!

Every metal building buyer is satisfied till this order status, but the biggest heck in metal building industry is you can’t track when your building is delivered.

Metal building deliveries vary from 10 days to more than 100 days. Hence, it’s complicated to know when your order will be delivered.

But Wait!

This is not anymore a hurdle with Viking Steel Structures. We offer 100% transparency in terms of the Estimated Delivery Times and provide complete information about your estimated timeline for steel structure delivery.

Special Note: If you order a prefabricated metal structure from ME, NH, VT, MA, CT, RI, NY, PA, NJ, DE, MD, WV, OH, MI, WI, MN, MT, WA, ID, WY, NE, UT, NV AND CO locations, after September 01, 2020; this delivery time estimation won’t apply to you.

To upgrade your information, multiple factors affect your metal building delivery. Below listed are prominent factors that collectively decide your order delivery date.

Industry Demands: During Spring season, when metal building manufacturers restart their business after heavy winter, order count is more than expected. It results in shifting your order into a queue that entirely depends upon the number of orders on the list. Delivery is the utmost priority for every manufacturer, but with existing manpower, lead-time increases.

However, metal building dealers handle such situations to ensure no customer experiences high lead time and metal building is delivered in an assured timeframe.

Design Factors: Multiple design factors do affect your metal building delivery. First is your metal building plan, which is essential before the manufacturing process starts. As soon as you provide your building layout, manufacturing process will start immediately, minimizing your lead time.

Another significant factor is building permits. Every building requires proper building permits from local authorities. Any delay in permits may extend the delivery period. So, get your local permits in advance before ordering a metal structure.

Fabrication Factors: How much time it will take to manufacture building depends upon multiple fabrication factors. First one is Material Availability which relies on the availability of raw steel required for metal building manufacturing. The second fabrication factor is the Customization required in your custom metal building. Manufacturing of custom metal building takes more time than standard building structures. The last essential fabrication factor is Color Panels. Color side panels require pre-coating and painting of steel panels that add additional hours to the final delivery of your building.

Shipping Factors: When it comes to shipping, it depends upon your location where the building will be delivered and installed. Another significant factor is weather conditions that impact shipping time. During winter, driveways are covered with heavy snow, resulting in an unexpected halt in delivery. Hence you must try to order during the summer or spring season.
