Our deep knowledge of the Dallas market, combined with our in-house capabilities, makes us the preferred builder for developers and investors throughout Dallas, TX, and beyond.
Single Story Storage Facilities
Single-story facilities remain the go-to option for properties with more land and easy street access. They’re easier to build, faster to rent, and more affordable to maintain.
These facilities typically include drive-up access, which appeals to residential and small business renters. Plus, there’s a lot of room for expansion as your business grows.
Multi-Story Storage Facilities
Multi-story builds offer an efficient solution in high-density areas of Dallas where land costs are higher. Our team is highly experienced in vertical construction, including elevator installation, upper-level climate controls, and reinforced load-bearing systems.
We design and build multi-level storage with an eye on user safety, long-term durability, and marketability – all while complying with Texas building codes and accessibility requirements.
Boat/RV Storage Facilities
Boat and RV owners in Texas need more than just a parking spot. They need protection from the sun, hail, and harsh weather. We specialize in developing covered and enclosed storage solutions for large vehicles.
From extra-wide drive aisles to 14’+ roll-up doors, our self storage design construction services address the unique structural demands of these units. Whether it’s open canopy-style shelters or fully enclosed bays with electrical hookups, we’ll help you cater to this growing niche market.
Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings
Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings (PEMBs) offer unmatched speed and simplicity. Ideal for both new developments and facility expansions, PEMBs provide fast lead times, consistent quality, and lower costs than other construction types.
A-Lert’s PEMBs ensure precision-fit components, structural integrity, and full compatibility with your self storage systems. Plus, they can be configured to support phased expansions or unit mix changes.
Building Conversions
If you own or have access to an underutilized warehouse, big box retail location, or commercial structure, a self-storage conversion project may be your most cost-effective path into the storage market.
Our team specializes in repurposing and retrofitting existing spaces into profitable self storage operations. We’ll evaluate structural integrity, HVAC requirements, and local regulations and then build a modern facility tailored to your specs.
X-tra Storage HD
X-tra Storage HD units are built for tenants with oversized storage needs — from industrial equipment to high-clearance trailers. These heavy-duty storage solutions feature reinforced slab foundations, taller ceilings, and upgraded security features to accommodate high-value or bulkier items.
X-tra Storage HD units are engineered for superior maneuverability, easy access, and secure storage. Built for contractors, landscapers, and logistics providers, they help you meet the needs of heavy-duty users and capture higher-value rentals.

A successful self-storage facility begins with thoughtful design. Without it, even the most well-built structure can underperform. Design influences how easily tenants can access their units, how traffic flows through the property, and how your available square footage translates into rentable space.
A well-planned facility accounts for how customers interact with the site, how future expansions might unfold, and how maintenance can be streamlined over time. It’s not just about fitting as many units as possible; it’s about placing the right types of units in the proper configuration to meet the demand in your area.
At A-Lert Building Systems, we take the time to understand your ideas, your needs, and your long-term goals. Each design is customized to support successful outcomes, whether that means simplifying access, improving visibility, or increasing lease-up speed. Our approach helps you build smarter from day one.
