30′ × 40′ garage
A residential garage framed in tubular steel, with 1,200 square feet of open floor.
What the building had to do
Thirty by forty gives 1,200 square feet of floor with no posts across the thirty-foot width, so the space stays clear for parking and working around vehicles.
Why tubular
For a detached garage, tubular is the frame we recommend more often than any other. It has the lowest installed price of the frames we supply, and at thirty feet wide this building sits well inside tubular’s sixty-foot range.
Tubular is quoted installed, so the kit and the crew come as one number.
Thinking about finishing it inside later? Insulation costs the same on any frame. Drywall is different: on tubular it needs a stud wall built inside the steel, so if a finished interior is in your plans, price that wall into the comparison now.
