What Are Modular Offices?

Modular offices are semi-permanent or temporary pre-built structures that are used in industrial or commercial applications. Panel built modular offices employ a panel system that enables quick and easy setup in an existing warehouse or manufacturing facility.

In warehouses, distribution centers and production facilities throughout the nation, modular workspaces are used to enable desk workers to do their jobs in buildings that are generally used for industrial purposes. These adaptable systems can add quiet, sheltered, climate controlled space to nearly any industrial structure, and can usually be erected in less than a day.

Why Choose Modular Offices vs Standard Construction?

Modular structures have considerable benefits versus building out permanent structures inside your facility. Because they’re constructed using prefab components, they’re much more versatile than standard construction and can quickly be expanded, relocated, adjusted or taken away. These installations may additionally qualify for accelerated depreciation by way of the Section 179 deduction, enabling a 100% write-off in the course of the purchase year. This is an enormous tax benefit vs a typical depreciation schedule. Additionally, modular construction is sometimes half the cost of traditional construction.

There is generally no requirement for engineers, architects or builders when installing a modular office; kits are prefabricated and easy to assemble.

Modular Office Uses

While the phrase “modular office” suggests that these structures are meant only to be put to use as office space, in reality they are employed for a broad variety of functions. For those contemplating a warehouse acquisition, move or redesign, there are several possible use scenarios for modular construction.

Modular Employee Cafeterias or Break Rooms

Having a hospitable, temperature controlled, brightly lit oasis for your workers to take safety breaks or lunch hours can enhance employee satisfaction and contribute to a productive and happy workforce.

Shipping and Receiving Departments

Quite often, industrial facilities require shipping and receiving offices. Modular offices are ideal for isolating these areas from the production floor or storage area. As demand fluctuates, they can also be sized accordingly with very little effort.

Modular Conference Areas

Modular conference rooms are ideal for employee training, meetings, and client reception areas. Nearly every business needs a collective meeting space and adding a modular conference facility can make a significant difference in your ability to conduct day-to-day business.

Modular Server Room Enclosures

Manufacturing floors and storage facilities can be less than ideal environments for equipment like computer servers, routers and switches. To keep sensitive equipment secure in dusty or dirty conditions, server room enclosures can provide just the right amount of protection and security at a relatively low cost.

On Site Labs

Very often, manufacturing, engineering, and scientific departments need isolated work areas, or laboratories, for specific functions. A modular office can easily be installed to provide the infrastructure required to build a fully operational lab.
