What is the delivery time for a temp building

Lightweight halls offer an unbeatable advantage: the delivery time for an aluminum warehouse or logistics hall is significantly shorter than for comparable steel structures. A lightweight hall can be delivered in just a few weeks, whereas delivery times for a custom-designed steel hall run into several months.

This is made possible by the modular construction method used for these rapid-assembly halls. Industrially prefabricated components from a modular system are optimally combined and tailored to the customer's specific needs. This eliminates the need for costly bespoke structural engineering and the production of custom parts.

Feel free to submit a no-obligation project inquiry. We will calculate the current delivery time for your warehouse or logistics hall.

Warehouses that make optimal use of a modular system can be delivered particularly quickly. Through clever combinations, individual components can be assembled to create various hall footprints and heights. Around 500 different hall configurations—designed to accommodate specific wind and snow loads—can be implemented easily and cost-effectively as standard options. The modular system also offers a selection of different gates and doors. Special components, such as windows, can be included upon customer request, though this extends the delivery time.

Delivery times for uninsulated and insulated halls

As a rule, an uninsulated hall can be delivered somewhat faster than an insulated one. This is possible due to the reduced manufacturing effort required for the wall cladding. Both types of halls share the same basic framework made of aluminum profiles. Robust trapezoidal steel sheets are installed in the uninsulated hall, whereas insulated panels with high thermal insulation values ​​are used for the insulated hall; these are more complex to produce. Delivery times for the insulated roof cover—made of highly tear-resistant industrial fabric—are similarly long.

Can halls for rent be delivered faster?

The materials used for lightweight halls can be recycled for new construction projects. This is not only sustainable; it can also result in shorter delivery times for rental halls. While Herchenbach does not necessarily have used material in stock for every type of rental hall, shorter delivery times are certainly possible, especially for standard rental halls.

What impact does the building permit have?

Lightweight halls can be set up as "temporary structures" for a period of six months; after that, a building permit is required in Germany. However, the permitting process can drag on for months. If the customer waits for the final permit to be issued, the hall can only be ordered once that happens, resulting in a longer delivery time. By using a liability waiver (for rentals or purchases) and the "Safe&Fast" process for rental halls, the waiting period can be put to good use and the construction materials ordered in advance.

Raw material shortages and supply chain disruptions pose major challenges for companies. In these turbulent times, Herchenbach relies on long-standing, trusted relationships with its suppliers. Communication has been intensified, with a primary focus on the flow of supplies. This ensures that Herchenbach’s purchasing team is informed about the current status of its suppliers at a very early stage, allowing for effective planning. Herchenbach deliberately prioritizes European suppliers; this guarantees shorter delivery times and minimizes supply route disruptions.
