Light-gauge metal stud framing for commercial interiors, exterior non-bearing walls, and load-bearing cold-formed steel structures.
With roughly 26,420 residents, Owatonna anchors a healthy Steele County construction market where the same GCs, lumberyards, and inspectors see every frame that goes up — and remember who built it well. Edge Enterprise LLC serves Owatonna with steel framing built on 25+ years of experience and a portfolio that includes some of the region's largest multi-family frames.
Owatonna sits roughly 3 hr 15 min from our Long Prairie HQ. For multi-week framing packages we stage crews locally, so drive time never becomes your schedule's problem. Projects here fall under the Minnesota State Building Code, with local city or county building officials as the AHJ. Typical design values for the Owatonna area — ground snow load around 35–42 psf, design wind speeds of 105–115 mph, and frost depths near 60 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 Owatonna and across Minnesota.
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.
