Metal Garages Installation DIY
Our garage kits are specifically designed and manufactured with the do-it-yourselfer in mind. With each kit, we include written and illustrated step-by-step installation instructions that are easy to follow and require only a few basic tools.
Our buildings have been assembled by husband-and-wife teams without a problem (and yes, they’re still married). If you’re handy with a few basic tools, you’re qualified!
The pictures below show a condensed version of the installation steps involved in do-it-yourself assembly. If you need help making your decision, call one of our metal building representatives at 1-877-833-3237 and ask them to email or mail you a complete set of installation instructions. If you are more the movie-and-video type, we’ll send you our free installation DVD.

A testimonial from a happy customer:
Hi Dean,
We assembled our first Absolute Steel building. When we first started our conversations and insights into your products, I must admit we were a little skeptical, not being able to see a building erected, living so far away. We had to make all of our decisions based on photos and correspondence.
I have been in the steel erection business for almost 30 years and have always had to make some corrections or field fitting on pre-engineered buildings.
After receiving our building packages from your company I was pleasantly surprised to see the care and quality that went into the packaging and labeling of each building, but the true test was yet to come.
We began by assembling a 20 x 20 standard carport; we did not break out the instructions as it was a very windy day. The assembly went very well, so well that the guy helping me went to get a phone call and when he returned 25 mins later, I had the whole frame together and ready to stand. We completed that building and everyone said that was easy! I said yes, but we are doing a complete building next – then we will see.
We then erected a complete building and sheeted it in.
WELL I must say, the entire building went together like your video shows, IT REALLY IS THAT EASY.
Congratulations to you and your company, it truly has been a pleasure dealing with Absolute Steel. You delivered a product that was the same as shown. A great quality product, professionally delivered from correspondence to order to delivery.
Keep up the good work, I wish all companies could deliver what they preach !
