Example Metal Building Designs to Start From
Four of the most-requested configurations our Midland team quotes. Recreate any of them in the designer above, adjust the dimensions, doors and colors, then submit the design for real pricing.
30×40 Workshop
The most-quoted metal building design in West Texas. Room for two vehicles plus a full work bay, with clear-span framing so a lift or welding table fits anywhere.
40×60 Equipment Barn
Sized for tractors, trailers and oilfield iron. Fourteen-foot eaves clear a lowboy, and the column-free floor means equipment maneuvers without obstacles.
25×30 Garage & Storage
A backyard-scale design that clears most city accessory-structure rules. Two cars, or one car plus a serious storage and hobby space.
40×75 Commercial Shop
A service-business layout: three revenue bays, a conditioned office with storefront glass, and eave height for vehicle lifts in every bay.
Every example is priced as a materials package — see what determines a metal-building quote or send your version for pricing.
How It Works
From First Click to Delivered Building
The Odessa Steel designer walks you through every choice — no CAD experience required. Most customers configure a full building in under 10 minutes.
Choose Your Dimensions
Start by entering the width, length and height of your building. Our designer supports single-slope, gabled and A-frame roof profiles from 12′×12′ backyard sheds all the way up to 100′+ commercial spans. Every dimension updates the 3D preview in real time.
Pick Your Materials & Colors
Select from 40+ Kynar and SMP paint colors, including premium wood-grain finishes. Compare 26-gauge and 29-gauge steel panels, R-Panel, corrugated, or standing-seam roofing side-by-side to see exactly how your building will look.
Add Doors, Windows & Accessories
Drop in walk doors, overhead roll-up doors, sliding barn doors, insulated windows, roof vents, gutters and downspouts. Move them around the walls until placement matches your site plan and workflow.
Send Us Your Design
When you're happy with the design, one click submits your specifications straight to our Midland engineering team. We review the design for local wind and snow loads, quote materials, and get back to you within 24 business hours.

Why Choose a Custom Metal Building
Steel That Fits Your Land, Your Budget, and Your Climate
Off-the-shelf sheds are cheap for a reason — they are not built for Permian Basin winds, sun exposure, or your specific use case. A designed-and-manufactured Odessa Steel building lasts decades longer for a comparable up-front cost.
Built for West Texas Weather
Every building we quote is engineered to the local wind, seismic, and snow-load requirements for Midland-Odessa and the wider Permian Basin — not a generic national spec sheet.
Transparent Pricing
The 3D designer gives you a real materials list. No mystery add-ons, no bait-and-switch — your quote is itemized by panels, trim, framing, fasteners and hardware so you always know what you are paying for.
Faster Turnaround
Because Odessa Steel manufactures in-house in Midland, your project skips the middleman. Most flat-pack and pre-engineered orders ship in 2-4 weeks from design approval.
Build It Yourself or Hire It Out
Every building we ship is DIY-friendly and includes step-by-step assembly instructions. Prefer a turnkey install? We can also connect you with a vetted contractor in the Permian Basin from our contractor program.
