Light-gauge metal stud framing for commercial interiors, exterior non-bearing walls, and load-bearing cold-formed steel structures.
Looking for steel framing in Billings? Edge Enterprise LLC is a family-owned contractor with 25+ years in the trade and over 1,000 framed units in its portfolio. As one of the largest cities in Montana, Billings carries a deep, competitive construction market where schedule reliability and clean inspections separate the framers who last from the ones who don't.
Our Long Prairie, MN base puts Billings about 13 hr 45 min out. We plan mobilization, material staging, and crew rotations around that from day one. Montana projects run under the state-adopted IBC/IRC; in mountain-zone jurisdictions, site-specific snow loads and seismic detailing are a fact of life we build for. Typical design values for the Billings area — ground snow load around 30–50 psf, design wind speeds of 105–115 mph, and frost depths near 48–72 in. — are baked into how we detail and build here; final values are always confirmed with the local building official.
Load-bearing CFS, curtain-wall infill, shaft walls, and ceiling framing — screwed, welded, or clipped per the engineer's details.
Demising walls, furring, soffits, and hard-lid ceilings for tenant improvements and new commercial construction.
Plenty of buildings mix wood and steel. Because we self-perform both, the interface details actually get built the way they were drawn.
Yes — Edge Enterprise self-performs light-gauge steel framing for commercial interiors, exterior infill walls, and load-bearing cold-formed steel projects in Billings and across Montana.
It depends on the building type, code requirements, and finish schedule. Steel wins for non-combustible construction and long interior runs; wood usually wins on cost for low-rise structures. Since we frame both, we'll give you an honest comparison rather than steering you to the only thing we sell.
Yes — shaft liner, area separation walls, and rated demising assemblies are part of nearly every commercial and multi-family steel package we frame.
Absolutely. We regularly contract the metal-stud scope alone — interiors, soffits, or exterior infill — working alongside the GC's other framing subs.
