Metal Workshops Built For The Way You Work

Clear-span steel shop buildings for contractors, fabricators, hobbyists, and small businesses across the Southwest.

Overview

A Shop That Works As Hard As You Do.

A great workshop starts with the right structure. Full Metal Buildings designs and supplies custom metal workshop buildings engineered for the Southwest — clear-span interiors with no columns in the way, insulated walls and roofs that keep the heat out, and door configurations that let you work the way you want.

We build for contractors who need a place to stage equipment, fabricators who need high bays and crane clearance, and serious hobbyists who want a premium personal shop. Every building is engineered to local code and delivered with a full permit package.

From a 1,200 sq ft backyard shop to a 20,000 sq ft commercial fabrication facility, we size and configure the building around your workflow — not the other way around.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I build a metal workshop on my residential property?

In most cases, yes — subject to local zoning and HOA rules. We provide permit-ready drawings that meet residential accessory structure requirements in Nevada, Arizona, Utah, California, and New Mexico.

How much does a metal workshop cost?

A basic 30×40 metal workshop typically starts around $25,000–$40,000 for the building package. Total project cost including foundation, electrical, and erection varies by site and configuration. Contact us for a free estimate.

Can I add a bathroom or office to my workshop?

Yes. We regularly design workshops with integrated office space, restrooms, and break rooms. We coordinate the structural framing — your GC or our erector handles the interior finish work.

What is the best insulation for a metal workshop in the desert?

For Southwest climates, we recommend a combination of 2" rigid foam on the roof and R-13 batt insulation in the walls. This keeps interior temperatures manageable even in extreme summer heat.
