light gauge steel framing

Build Faster, Smarter, and with More Certainty

Kova fabricates light gauge steel (LGS) framing systems that reduce jobsite risk, accelerates schedules, and delivers cleaner, more predictable outcomes than traditional field-built framing.

Light Gauge Steel (LGS) construction paired with offsite prefabrication offers a modern alternative to traditional onsite building methods.

By manufacturing structural components in a controlled factory environment and assembling them rapidly onsite, developers and builders gain speed, cost efficiency, and consistent quality.

Factory-Built Precision

Every component engineered and fabricated in a controlled facility—not measured and cut in the field.

Digital Coordination

3D modeling and clash detection resolve conflicts before they reach the jobsite.

Sequenced, Just-in-Time Delivery

Panels and packages arrive in installation order, reducing staging complexity and site congestion.

Noncombustible. Dimensionally Stable.

Steel doesn’t warp, shrink, rot, or attract pests—and it performs the same on day one as it does year ten.

Offsite prefabrication vs Traditional onsite construction

Offsite Light Gauge Steel

  • Precision-engineered members manufactured in a controlled facility
  • Panels and assemblies delivered ready for rapid install
  • Sitework and fabrication happen in parallel
  • MEP coordination can be built into the framing model
  • Less material waste, less jobsite clutter, fewer field fixes

Traditional Onsite Construction

  • Framing is built piece-by-piece at the jobsite
  • Greater exposure to weather, labor variability, and sequencing delays
  • More field measuring, rework, and trade conflicts
  • Rough openings and as-built dimensions vary more from plan
  • Higher waste, longer durations, and more onsite congestion
