What Are Modular Offices?

Modular offices are temporary or semi-permanent prefabricated structures that are used in commercial or industrial environments. Panel built modular structures employ a panel system that allows for fast and convenient setup in an existing warehouse or production facility.

In warehouses, distribution operations and production facilities throughout the country, modular office spaces are used to allow desk workers to collocate in buildings that are generally used for industrial purposes. These flexible systems can add quiet, protected, temperature controlled space to just about any commercial structure, and can usually be assembled in less than a day.

Why Choose Modular Offices vs Standard Construction?

Modular offices offer significant advantages over building out permanent structures inside your facility. Since they’re constructed using prefabricated components, they’re much more flexible than standard construction and can quickly be added on to, moved, adjusted or removed. These installations may additionally qualify for shorter term depreciation by way of the Section 179 allowance, enabling a 100% write-off in the course of the purchase year. This is a significant tax windfall vs an average depreciation timeframe. Additionally, modular building can be 50% of the cost of permanent construction.

In general, there is no need for architects, structural engineers or builders when setting up a modular office; systems are prefabricated and easy to assemble.

Modular Office Applications

Although the phrase “modular office” suggests that these kits are designed specifically to be put to use as office space, in reality they are used for a wide variety of purposes. For those contemplating a warehouse acquisition, relocation or reconfiguration, there are several potential use scenarios for modular systems.

Modular Employee Cafeterias or Break Rooms

Having a comfortable, temperature controlled, well-lit area for your workers to relax and recharge during breaks and lunch hours can enhance employee satisfaction and ensure that your workforce remains happy and productive.

Shipping and Receiving Departments

Many facilities need shipping and receiving departments. Modular offices are ideal for enclosing these areas and segregating them from the production floor or warehouse. They can also be expanded or reduced as demand fluctuates.

Modular Conference Rooms

Modular conference rooms are ideal for employee training, meetings, and client reception areas. Almost all businesses need a shared meeting area and installing a modular conference room can make a significant difference in your ability to conduct day-to-day business.

Modular Computer Room Enclosures

Manufacturing floors and storage facilities can be less than ideal environments for equipment like computer servers, routers and switches. For delicate equipment that needs to be deployed in dirty or dusty conditions, computer room enclosures can offer security and protection while keeping costs in check.

On Site Labs

Very often, engineering, production, and scientific centers must have isolated spaces, or laboratories, for specific functions. A modular workspace can easily be added to provide the infrastructure required to build a fully operational lab.
