Does Steel and Stud deliver and install in my state?

What's the typical lead time for a 22×36 building?

Can I finance a Steel and Stud building without a credit check?

What's covered under the 20-year warranty?
Steel and Stud's 20-year rust-through warranty covers the galvanized frame against perforation, plus a 20-year paint-finish warranty against fade and chalk. Workmanship on the install is warrantied for 1 year. Warranty transfers to the next owner on resale.

Volunteer Fire Apparatus Bay questions, answered.
How much does a 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay cost?
A 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay from Steel and Stud starts at $13,650 with free delivery and free installation across all 48 states. Most buyers pick the rent-to-own option at about $284/month with $0 down and no credit check. Call 1-877-275-7048 for a same-day price lock.
Is delivery and installation included in the 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay price?
Yes — every Steel and Stud volunteer fire apparatus bay ships with free delivery + free installation by a certified crew, included in the listed price. Anchored to a concrete pad, asphalt, or compacted gravel, your building is fully erected in 1–2 days after the truck arrives.
Do I need a permit for a 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay?
Almost always for 792+ sq ft enclosed buildings. Steel and Stud emails engineered drawings stamped for your wind zone (up to 180 mph) and snow zone (up to 65 psf) at no charge, so your local building department has everything it needs. Permit timing typically runs 2–6 weeks by jurisdiction.
How is a Steel and Stud volunteer fire apparatus bay different from a wood-frame build?
Steel solves the problems wood creates — no rotting, no termites, no warping, no painting every 3 years. Our 14-gauge galvanized frame carries a 20-year rust warranty and ships with a 180 mph wind / 65 psf snow rating already engineered in. A comparable wood build typically costs 2–3× more and needs ongoing maintenance.
What foundation does a 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay need?
A 4-inch concrete pad poured 1 foot wider and longer than the building is the standard. Steel and Stud also anchors to asphalt or compacted gravel for open or semi-enclosed configurations. A pad-pour bundle is offered at checkout if you don't already have a slab.
How fast can I get a 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay delivered?
Standard lead time is 3–5 weeks from order to install. Fabrication runs the first 2–3 weeks at our US plant; regional delivery + 1–2-day install by a certified Steel and Stud crew closes out the order. Rush builds are available — call 1-877-275-7048 for current capacity.
Can I finance a 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay without a credit check?
Yes — Steel and Stud's rent-to-own partner does not pull credit. Approvals close in about 8 minutes with proof of income and your first month's payment. Terms run 36–60 months with no early-payoff penalty, and the monthly works out to roughly $284/month on a 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay.
What warranty comes with the 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay?
Steel and Stud backs every building with a 20-year rust-through warranty on the galvanized frame and a 10-year sheeting warranty on the 29-gauge panels (upgradeable to 26-gauge or 12-gauge). Workmanship on the install is warrantied for 1 year. Full warranty terms ship with your order packet.
Can I customize the 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay in 3D before I order?
Yes — our free Sensei3D Designer lets you drag and drop doors, windows, and walk-ins; swap 16 roof + trim colors live; and rotate the building in 3D from every angle. No login required. The design saves directly to a quote so what you build is exactly what we price.
Will the 22×36 volunteer fire apparatus bay pass community-use and assembly inspections?
Yes. Steel and Stud's engineered drawings include load calculations, accessibility paths, and egress widths required by most jurisdictions for assembly and institutional use. Stamped, sealed PE drawings are included free with every order.
