Interested in a DIY steel building kit?
A pleasant construction process and a very strong end result
Hubert Van Riet was born and raised in Merchtem, a village in Flemish Brabant. After a past in metalworking, Hubert has since switched to agriculture. His sons are just as handy as he is. The Van Riet family needed a space where they could work without hassle, and the outdated concrete workspace no longer met their requirements. Moreover, the asbestos sheets on the roof were also in need of a safe replacement.
The search for a sustainable workspace led the Van Riet family to FRISOKIT. What started with a good conversation soon resulted in detailed construction plans for a steel building and all the necessary equipment. Then, of course, all that remained was to assemble the building! It was a process that Hubert’s son described as fast, fun and pleasant – and one that led to smart savings.
A month’s work resulted in a well-insulated steel building, which is even pleasant to be in over the winter. With the FRISOKIT DIY building kit, the Van Riet family have created the ideal base for all their projects.
