60X120X18 Steel Warehouse Building Kit – Clear-Span Building

Product Overview

The 60×120×18 warehouse configuration delivers 7,200 square feet of uninterrupted interior floor area designed for commercial inventory containment and structured storage layouts. With a 60-foot clear-span width and 120-foot interior depth, this format moves into distribution-scale warehouse territory while maintaining clear interior floor clearance from sidewall to sidewall.

As a clear-span steel warehouse building kit, this configuration maintains uninterrupted interior floor clearance across the full 60-foot span, supporting consistent aisle spacing, wider racking rows, and improved material handling movement.

Best for: Commercial warehouse operations requiring expanded pallet density, wider aisle circulation, and increased interior zoning within a large enclosed structure.

This size is commonly evaluated when mid-size warehouse formats no longer provide adequate racking capacity or forklift maneuvering width.

Frequently considered for regional distribution hubs, wholesale storage facilities, and contractor supply warehousing across Ontario and other Canadian regions.

All items supplied are tangible components delivered as part of the steel building kit.

 

Quick Answers

• Product type: Physical prefabricated steel building kit
• Shipping method: Freight delivery
• Installation included: No
• Drawings included: Yes (printed documentation for permitting/reference)
• Best for: Large commercial warehouse and distribution storage

 

Structural Components & Materials

This warehouse kit includes:

• CSA A660 certified structural steel components
• Fabrication performed under CWB certification to CSA W47.1
• Clear-span rigid steel I-beam framing system
• 26-gauge Canadian-made steel wall and roof panels
• Secondary framing including purlins, girts, bracing, and connection hardware

Printed structural and foundation drawings are included as part of the physical kit documentation for general permitting reference purposes. Documentation references general Canadian snow and wind load considerations commonly associated with this product type.

Final structural design criteria are determined at the time of order based on project location and applicable building code requirements.

 

Size-Specific Performance Advantage

The 60-foot clear-span width increases lateral storage capacity beyond 50-foot formats, allowing wider racking systems and expanded forklift turning radii. The 120-foot building length supports extended aisle runs, segmented storage zones, receiving and staging areas, and defined inventory grouping within a single enclosure.

The 18-foot wall height supports vertical pallet stacking and potential mezzanine integration subject to project-specific structural review.

Compared to a 50×100 warehouse configuration, the 60×120 format increases both interior width and depth, allowing higher pallet density and improved circulation flexibility for growing distribution operations.

 

Design Trade-Offs and Layout Priorities

This configuration prioritizes storage density and interior circulation flexibility over compact site footprint. The expanded 60-foot width supports broader racking layouts and smoother material handling movement while increasing overall building scale.

Operations requiring dock-intensive cross-docking layouts or industrial automation systems may evaluate larger 80-foot or 100-foot wide warehouse configurations.

 

When Not to Choose This Size

This format may not be suitable where site width restrictions limit building expansion or where compact warehouse footprints are preferred for lower-scale storage needs.

Facilities requiring high-volume distribution throughput, multiple loading bays, or large-scale automated storage systems may consider wider industrial warehouse formats.

 

Common Warehouse Applications

Typical use cases include:

• Palletized inventory containment
• Regional distribution storage
• Wholesale product warehousing
• Contractor material depots
• Equipment and bulk goods storage
• Segmented commercial inventory zones
