Serving Ohio from river towns to farm country, Simpson Steel Building Company makes choosing a steel building simple and predictable. Whether you’re adding fleet storage, a farm shop, or a small warehouse, our metal building kits arrive coordinated for efficient assembly and dependable performance. We scope your site, timeline, and budget, then align accessories and logistics so you can build with confidence.
Reliable, Flexible Kits for Your Needs
Each kit includes engineered framing, roof and wall panels, trim, and hardware—everything needed for a professional-grade metal building. Choose practical upgrades like insulation, gutters, lean-tos, translucent panels, and liner panel. Need documents for review? We can supply drawings and, on request, stamped submittals to support your local approvals and inspections. A pre-engineered steel building reduces jobsite risk and compresses schedules. Labeled components fit as intended, instructions are clear, and your crew spends more time installing, less time improvising. Our patented truss approach emphasizes constructability and value, helping you secure a durable metal building without unnecessary complexity or cost.
Designed and Built for Ohio
From compact lots to rural acreage, we coordinate shipping, share bundle weights for unloading, and help you stage a clean laydown area. Truss buildings are limited to 50-foot widths, 18-foot eaves, and non-extreme loads; if you need more capacity, we’ll discuss alternate frames that match your goals. Expect realistic lead times, transparent communication, and support that lasts beyond delivery—so your steel building goes up smoothly. Skip the guesswork. Our team will reply with options, pricing, and a realistic schedule window. Or start your Ohio build conversation with Simpson Steel Building Company, contact us today.
Simpson Steel Building Company has been providing metal buildings to the great state of Ohio for over 40 years. We’ve become very familiar with and kept up with local building code changes that have come up over the years. Our patented truss design gives you all the benefits of a traditional red-iron structure for a much lower price point!
Our steel building kits for Ohio are designed to handle both the lower wind and snow loads in the southern and central part of the state such as in Cincinnati, Dayton, and Columbus, as well as the heavier snow and wind loads in the Lake Erie area such as in Toledo, Akron, and Cleveland. Simpson can provide complete engineered plans, engineered design calculations, and engineered foundation plans that are stamped by a licensed Ohio engineer in the event you need these items for permitting. Our building kits have never been denied a permit in the state of Ohio.
Our bolt-together building kits are easy to assemble and only require a forklift or tractor with tongs to move around. This makes our building kit the perfect solution for any Ohioans looking for an affordable DIY Kit for their project needs. Speaking of projects, our buildings work great for a multitude of uses, such as hay barns, stables, garages, shops, commercial buildings, and barndominium homes! In the event that you want someone to erect the building kit for you, we have a list of local contractors we can refer to help with that aspect of the project.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I plan openings and interior layout for long-term use?
Size doors to vehicle heights with extra clearance, and position openings where snow and water will not shed into entries. Reserve wall space for future storage, utilities, and lighting, and consider liner panel in high-traffic areas. Good circulation, daylight, and ventilation improve safety, workflow, and comfort over the life of the building.
How quickly can I receive drawings for planning and permits?
Timing depends on scope and review cycles, but sharing your target window helps us align production and paperwork. We provide kit drawings, and stamped submittals are available on request. Early coordination with your local authority, engineer, and contractor keeps approvals moving, reduces revisions, and protects your schedule.
What maintenance extends service life over time?
Plan seasonal rinses to remove dust, salt, and pollen, and keep gutters, downspouts, and splash areas clear. Inspect fasteners, sealants, and flashing annually, and address scratches with approved touch-up, primer, and paint. Trim vegetation, maintain positive drainage away from the slab, and record inspections to spot trends, prioritize repairs, and preserve value.
