- Metal Building Kits
Rigid Global Buildings manufactures pre-engineered metal building kits for California contractors, developers, and property owners statewide — warehouse and distribution operations across the Inland Empire, data centers and tech facilities in the Bay Area and Los Angeles Basin, agricultural processing throughout the Central Valley, aviation facilities across California's extensive general aviation network, and commercial and industrial development from San Diego to Sacramento. Every kit ships as a complete structural package to your job site.
Because we manufacture direct, there's no dealer markup and no middleman between your project and our engineering team. You work directly with the people who design and build your kit — from first quote to final shipment.
Built for California's Climate and Conditions
California presents some of the most complex building engineering requirements in the country. The state sits on multiple active fault systems — seismic design requirements are among the most stringent in the nation, varying significantly by county and site class. Coastal counties face high wind exposure and corrosive salt air environments. The Central Valley deals with extreme heat cycles. Northern California mountain counties see significant snow loads at elevation.
Every Rigid metal building kit shipped to California is engineered to meet local building code, seismic, and wind load requirements for your specific county before it ships — including California Building Code requirements and county-specific seismic design categories. We hold a San Bernardino County Certificate of Approval covering our building systems.

Commercial & Industrial Metal Buildings in California
California's logistics, distribution, manufacturing, and tech-driven industrial sectors have created significant demand for pre-engineered metal building kits across the state. The Inland Empire is one of the largest distribution and warehouse markets in the country. The Central Valley supports large-scale agricultural processing and cold storage facilities. The Bay Area and Los Angeles Basin drive demand for flex space, light industrial, and mission-critical facilities — all requiring seismic engineering that Rigid handles in-house.
Common Metal Building Sizes in California
Building size is driven by intended use, site conditions, and how the operation is likely to grow. Warehouse and distribution projects in the Inland Empire and Central Valley commonly run 60×120 to 80×200 depending on clear height and racking requirements. Flex space and light industrial projects in the Bay Area and Los Angeles Basin typically range from 40×60 to 60×120. Whatever the footprint, every kit is fabricated to your exact dimensions — width, length, and eave height are all project-specific.
| Size | Sq Ft | Eave Height | Common Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30×40 | 1,200 | 10–14 ft | Workshop, garage, small storage |
| 40×60 | 2,400 | 12–16 ft | Flex space, small industrial, equipment storage |
| 50×80 | 4,000 | 14–18 ft | Light industrial, auto service, self storage |
| 50×100 | 5,000 | 14–20 ft | Warehouse, distribution, manufacturing |
| 60×120 | 7,200 | 16–24 ft | Large warehouse, aviation hangar, industrial |
| 80×200 | 16,000 | 20–30 ft | Large distribution center, data center, high-bay warehouse |
