Light-gauge metal stud framing for commercial interiors, exterior non-bearing walls, and load-bearing cold-formed steel structures.
Edge Enterprise LLC brings steel framing to Staples backed by 25+ years of framing experience and more than 1,000 multi-family units built across the Upper Midwest. Staples may be small, but small-town projects get our full crew and full attention — that's the Long Prairie way, and it's how Edge Enterprise was built.
Our Long Prairie, MN base puts Staples about 30 minutes out. We plan mobilization, material staging, and crew rotations around that from day one. Projects here fall under the Minnesota State Building Code, with local city or county building officials as the AHJ. Typical design values for the Staples area — ground snow load around 50–60 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 Staples 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.
