Across Tennessee, from Memphis to Knoxville, property owners turn to Simpson Steel Building Company when they need a reliable metal building or a purpose-built steel building. We manufacture pre-engineered kits that match your site, your codes, and your daily operations, whether you are housing equipment, storing inventory, or creating a new workspace. By planning carefully at the start, we help your project move from concept to construction with fewer delays and fewer surprises.
Tailored Building Kits for Tennessee
Every metal building kit we supply is engineered as a complete system, including framing, panels, and drawings that work together on your foundation. We can accommodate overhead doors, walk doors, and windows so your layout fits your vehicles, tools, and people. Your steel building can be configured for farm use, light manufacturing, or storage, with options that align with Tennessee’s weather and local requirements. We also manufacture and provide steel buildings for Texas.
Choosing a professionally designed metal building means your structure is checked against the loads, exposure, and use you describe, not just a generic template. We look at roof pitch, bracing, and openings so your building can stand up to wind, rain, and years of use. When you rely on an experienced manufacturer, you reduce the risk of costly design changes in the middle of permitting or construction, and you gain documentation your local officials can review with confidence.
Simple Ways To Start Your Project
To price a steel building accurately, we need details such as dimensions, location, intended purpose, and any accessories you are considering. You can call us to discuss ideas, complete our in-depth quote form when you are ready, or use the quick contact form to send questions as you plan. The more information you share, the better we can match your metal building kit to your schedule, budget, and long-term goals. Reach out today so we can help you design the Tennessee steel building that works as hard as you do.
Simpson Steel Building Company has been providing metal buildings to the great state of Tennessee 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 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 Tennesseans 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 for you, we have a list of local contractors we can refer to help with that aspect of the project.
Simpson offers insulation packages that come in multiple thicknesses that you can add to your metal building purchase. Whether you need a 6” insulation package to handle the humidity on those warm summer days in or around Memphis, Chattanooga, or Nashville, you need bundle up in the winter months in Knoxville or Johnson City, or maybe you just need a 3” insulation package for moderate temperature control, we’ve got you covered. Our standard insulation has a VR facing that is very similar to TVEK house wrap. It is a white polypropylene scrim kraft facing and has a very superior vapor barrier and perm rating. The facing is laminated with a flame-retardant adhesive that is reinforced with tri-directional fiberglass/polyester to prevent rips and tears.

Simpson Steel Building Company is able to manufacture our high-quality pre-fabricated buildings thanks to our unique steel truss designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I compare your quote to another metal building quote?
When you review quotes, look beyond the bottom-line price and compare framing type, panel gauge, and included accessories. You should also check whether engineering, drawings, and freight are part of each proposal, or listed as extras. If you send competing quotes to us, we can help you understand the differences so you can make a fair, informed decision.
Can I insulate my steel building later if I am on a budget now?
Yes, many Tennessee customers start with an uninsulated structure, then add insulation once operations grow. Planning ahead still matters, because door and window choices can affect how easily interior finishes are added later. We can discuss options that keep your current costs manageable while preserving flexibility for future upgrades.
Do I need a local contractor, or can I build the kit myself?
Some customers with construction experience assemble their own buildings, especially on smaller projects. For larger or schedule-sensitive jobs, we strongly recommend working with a licensed contractor who understands concrete, equipment use, and local safety rules. We can provide drawings and information your contractor needs so the erection process is efficient, accurate, and aligned with our engineering.
