Engineered for
Long Life.

Traditional steel buildings near waterways deteriorate predictably and rapidly. Salt air accelerates corrosion exponentially—what takes decades inland happens in years at the coast. Maintenance cycles compound—each repair exposes fresh steel to salt air, accelerating subsequent deterioration.

Legacy's corrosion-resistant technology delivers lower total cost of ownership. Our proprietary epoxy coatings provide corrosion resistance far superior to hot-dip galvanizing in salt air environments. ExxoTec™ PVC cladding is naturally inert to salt spray, humidity, and marine conditions—it cannot rust, pit, or corrode regardless of coastal exposure intensity.

Traditional storage layouts force inefficient vessel positioning, create dead zones where vessels can't be safely maneuvered, prevent optimal trailer access, and limit the range of vessel sizes you can accept.

Legacy's engineered Clear Span design up to 300 feet wide eliminates interior obstructions, maximizing revenue-generating storage capacity. Your storage layout can also evolve as vessel mix changes—no structural columns forcing permanent configuration constraints.

Extended construction timelines compound costs and restrict operational windows. Coastal construction is limited by hurricane seasons, winter storms, and weather-dependent installation requirements, and longer projects expose you to material price increases, labor rate escalation, and unpredictable cost overruns.

Legacy's vertically integrated process—design, engineering, manufacturing, and installation all in-house—delivers operational facilities faster. Our in-house engineering team works directly with manufacturing, resolving potential issues before they become costly delays. Every component built in our 87,000 sq ft Minnesota facility under rigorous quality control—no supply chain delays, no coordination between multiple suppliers.

Inadequate facility design creates ongoing operational friction that compounds costs. Traditional metal buildings require constant artificial lighting—expensive in marine environments where facilities operate extended hours or 24/7. Metal buildings also become ovens in coastal sun exposure—dangerous working conditions, accelerated equipment corrosion from condensation, higher HVAC costs.

Our white ExxoTec™ cladding can provide natural daylight throughout the facility during operating hours—reducing electricity costs while creating safer, more productive working conditions. Our ventilation system with strategically placed soffits and gravity vents manages salt air and humidity without mechanical systems. Clear Span design accommodates any configuration—gantry cranes for vessel handling, bridge cranes for cargo operations, high-bay storage, specialized marine equipment—without interior columns restricting operations.
