We are currently updating our Frequently Asked Questions. If you would like to help with this process, please submit your question(s) below.
Q: What are manufactured components?
A: Raw lumber manufactured into building parts - window assemblies, paritians, pre-built stairs, complex or simple walls.
Q: Why choose pre-built components versus traditional stick building?
A: Each pre-built component gives contractors and framers the ability to save time, and in the end, money.
- Each component is specifically designed for each building and location, making components easy to use in the field.
- Weather is not a factor.
- Components are rarely stolen from the job site.
- Material delays and shortages are less likely.
- Callbacks are reduced, because materials are hand selected for quality during the assembly process.
- There is less waste, which means a cleaner, safer working environment. This reduces the need for trash disposal and results in a cost savings on wood and other materials.
- Huge time savings, translating into lower costs.
Q: Can I tour the plant?
A: Yes, contractors and architects are welcome! Please stop by during our business hours, M-F 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. Call 402.624.2044 or e-mail us at info@abcwalls.com to let us know when you're coming ...we'd love to give you the "official tour."
Q: Who benefits the most from using manufactured components?
A: Pre-built components benefit everyone ...including the owner, the builder, and the framers or subcontractors.
Q: Is panelization suitable for all wood framing applications?
A: Anything can be panelized, however some projects lend itself to this medium better than others. We've used panels on custom homes up to 15,000 square feet.
Q: Are there any limitations or restrictions to a wood frame structure?
A: No! All projects are custom built.
