Why This Size Works

The 24 foot width is compact and efficient for tighter lots, while the 40 foot depth provides practical workspace for machinery, shelving, and equipment storage. The 16 foot wall height supports oversized doors and allows tall racking systems, stacked inventory, and overhead equipment. The clear-span interior provides an unobstructed work area that suits a wide range of commercial layouts.

This size is often chosen by small businesses that need room to work without moving into a larger commercial footprint.
