Industrial Workshops
& Repair Buildings

Sheltirx™ industrial workshops provide clear-span, custom-configured covered space for equipment servicing, fabrication, welding, assembly, and repair. Engineered around your workflow to keep jobs moving. 

Industrial Workshop Buildings
for Repair, Fabrication & Maintenance

A workshop has to support the work itself: equipment needs to move in, technicians need room to work around it, and tools and parts need to stay accessible. Our industrial workshop buildings can be laid out for dedicated repair work or for a combination of maintenance, fabrication, equipment storage and assembly.

Common applications include:

Configured Around
Equipment, Tools & Workflows

The industrial repair areas frequently have greater requirements for floor space than a standard warehouse. The equipment could come on trucks or trailers, be moved by forklifts, or be positioned for testing and repairs. The building needs to be designed with these processes in mind so that equipment is not maneuvered through an unnatural process.

Our building designs will allow you to take into account your equipment size, work bays, spare parts, assembly areas and the required clearance for maintenance. The placement of doors and general building design can also allow for the delivery and collection of the repaired equipment.

Any specialist systems will need to be established at the planning stage. Welding and hot work areas will probably require adequate ventilation, fire suppression, electrical service and segregation from other operations. Vehicle repair shops will probably require exhaust ventilation, and heavy maintenance will need lifting equipment. These items should be incorporated into the design rather than being assumed to be part of all standard buildings.

Add Workshop Capacity
Without Long Construction Delays

If the repairs become too much to handle or if production is ramped up, the lack of a permanent workshop could affect the rest of your operation. A fabric building provides another working area without impeding the current building from doing its primary function.

The workshops we manufacture are designed to be temporary and, depending on the set-up, can even be extended or moved to accommodate any change in the operations of the company.

This is particularly helpful in situations where a company requires a special working area for big repairs, the introduction of a new equipment line, or fabrication tasks. The solution will of course depend on the building specifications and the site preparation, among other factors.

Engineered for Industrial
Worksite Conditions

Workshop buildings must be suitable for the site where they will operate. Building dimensions, large doors, environmental loads, foundations, anchoring and local building requirements all affect the structural design. We can engineer buildings for project-specific wind and snow loads and provide drawings and calculations where required.

The site plan should reserve room for delivery trucks, equipment turning, access around the building and safe installation. Foundation selection depends on the structure, ground conditions and project requirements; available options should be confirmed during design rather than assumed from the building category alone.

For workshops intended for year-round work, insulation, lighting, ventilation, heating or other building systems should be defined according to the processes taking place inside and the climate at the installation site.

Durable Construction
for Workshop Use

Our workshop buildings use hot-dip galvanized steel framing for corrosion resistance and long-term structural performance. The frame and building configuration are specified around the intended use, site conditions, door openings and operating requirements.

We back our fabric building systems with a 20-year structural guarantee and 10-year fabric guarantee, together with a 5-year spare-parts warranty. Warranty terms depend on the selected building configuration and specification.

Regular inspection of the frame, cover, anchors, doors and any installed systems remains important. For industrial workshop shelters, a clear specification for the work processes and equipment helps ensure the building remains practical to operate and maintain.

Create a Workshop
Around the Work

Add a dedicated space for repairs, fabrication, equipment maintenance or assembly with a building planned around your equipment and workflow. Share the required dimensions, door clearances, site location and any workshop systems needed so the structure can be specified for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Industrial Workshop Buildings Used For?

They provide covered space for equipment repair, vehicle maintenance, fabrication, welding, assembly, parts storage and other industrial work.

Which Workloads Suit Industrial Fabrication Shelters?

These shelters can support fabrication and assembly work when their size, ventilation, fire protection, electrical and other process requirements are included in the project design.

How Should a Workshop Fabric Building Be Sized?

Consider equipment dimensions, door clearance, work bays, tool and parts storage, material movement and the room required around equipment for service work.

Are Industrial Workshop Shelters Suitable for Temporary Projects?

Depending on the configuration, a building can provide temporary workspace, overflow repair capacity or a longer-term facility.

What Site Preparation Is Required?

The site needs a suitable foundation or anchoring system, access for delivery and installation equipment, and enough room for the intended workflow and service access.

Can Workshop Buildings Be Relocated?

Depending on the structure and installation, a building can be dismantled and relocated when requirements change.

What Warranty Coverage Is Available?

Our published coverage includes a 20-year structural guarantee, 10-year fabric guarantee and 5-year spare-parts warranty, subject to the selected configuration and applicable terms.
