Recreational Steel Buildings

Pre‑engineered steel recreational buildings create expansive, column‑free arenas where kids, teens and adults can practice, play or compete year‑round, no matter the weather. Clear‑span frames push 200‑plus feet wide for basketball courts, indoor soccer, pickleball, gymnastics or community events, while insulated metal panels, daylight windows and optional HVAC keep the environment comfortable and energy‑efficient.

Rapid, prefab erection slashes construction time; durable steel roofs and wall systems minimize maintenance and operating costs. Whether you need a municipal fieldhouse, private sports academy or multisport complex, a steel recreation center delivers maximum usable space, design flexibility and long‑term value in one streamlined package.

Designed to Impress

An attractive, contemporary design not only supports high performance but also projects a professional image that elevates your facility and brand.

01 Discovery & Quote (Week 1)

Begin with an initial project consultation to identify key needs and set clear goals. Our team will develop conceptual designs, prepare preliminary sketches, and provide you with a detailed quote so you know what to expect right from the start.

02 Design Sign-Off (Week 2)

After reviewing the initial designs, you’ll approve the final layout and contract. We’ll then coordinate the fabrication timeline and provide an estimated materials delivery date, ensuring everyone is aligned before proceeding to the next stage.

03 Engineering & Detailing (Weeks 3–5, 3–8, or 3–12)

Our engineers produce stamped permit drawings based on your project’s complexity:

Small Projects (Weeks 3–5): Approximately 2–3 weeks for stamped drawings.
Medium Projects (Weeks 3–8): Expect 4–6 weeks for simple self-storage buildings.
Large/Complex Projects (Weeks 3–12): More intricate designs (crane loads, mezzanines, complex rooflines, climate-controlled units) may take 8–10 weeks.

04 Initial Project Requirements & Site Preparation (Typically 4–8 Weeks)

With approved drawings in hand, your contractor handles permits, sitework, and foundation preparation. This pre-construction phase—securing necessary permits, performing site grading, and forming/pouring the foundation—usually spans 4–8 weeks, setting the stage for a smooth installation.

05 Delivery Preparation

We finalize production schedules and prepare your materials for shipment. Throughout this phase, we maintain open communication, ensuring that you, your contractor, and our team are coordinated for an efficient delivery and installation process.

06 Final Project Installation (Typically 1–3 Months)

Once materials are delivered, your contractor begins the metal building system (MBS) installation. Depending on complexity and site conditions, this can take 1–3 months, during which we remain focused on providing a quality, durable structure that meets your expectations.

07 Walkthrough & Completion

After installation, you’ll join your installer in a thorough walkthrough to ensure everything meets your specifications. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we’ll continue to offer support should you need any future assistance or modifications.

Joey Ayash

"SteelCo helped us build our dream barndominium. We explained what we wanted for our building and they exceeded our expectations! We had excellent help in planning as well as some great suggestions by the SteelCo team. All SteelCo team members we spoke with were extremely professional and responsive, which made the whole process smooth sailing."

Mickey Thomas Motorsports

"...Everyone is quick to getting you a quote but not everyone treats you with the respect and professionalism that SteelCo has done. I chose SteelCo because it didn't feel like a "sales guy" calling me and making me rush into something...I made what felt like a thousand changes to my building...but they never sounded upset or made me feel like I was wasting their time..."
