LGS Extensions, Additional Floors & Roof Structures in the UAE

ABM Industries uses light gauge steel (LGS) to add space to existing buildings across the UAE, including extensions, additional floors, roof structures and mezzanines. Because LGS is far lighter than concrete, it is often the most practical way to build on top of or next to an existing structure.

Frames are engineered for each building, fabricated in our Sharjah facility and installed with minimal disruption.

LGS Solutions for Existing Buildings

  • Villa and house extensions
  • Additional floors and rooftop rooms
  • Roof trusses and pitched roof structures
  • Mezzanine floors
  • Partition and internal wall framing

Built to Your Requirements

Each extension, additional floor or roof is engineered from a survey of the existing building and your drawings, so the new framing suits the structure it is added to.

Why Use LGS for Extensions and Roofs?

  • Lightweight: adds less load to the existing structure.
  • Fast installation: less disruption for occupants.
  • Clean site: dry construction with little waste.
  • Accurate fit: sections fabricated to the measured dimensions.
  • Durable: galvanized steel resists corrosion.

Light Gauge Steel Across the UAE

We build LGS extensions and roof structures in Dubai, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi and across the UAE. See our LGS villa and housing projects and our steel structure projects.

How We Deliver Your LGS Extension

  • 1. Brief: share your architectural drawings, building use and site location.
  • 2. Engineering: our team designs the light gauge steel frame to suit the layout and loads.
  • 3. Fabrication: steel sections are cut and fabricated to size in our Sharjah facility.
  • 4. Installation: frames are assembled on site, ready for cladding and finishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add a floor to my villa with light gauge steel?

Often yes. LGS is lightweight, so it is a common choice for additional floors, subject to a structural assessment of the existing building.

What is an LGS roof structure?

A roof built from light gauge steel trusses or rafters, finished with your chosen roofing material.

Is LGS construction disruptive?

Much less than concrete. Frames are fabricated off-site and assembled quickly with dry construction.

Do you need approvals for extensions?

Extensions usually need authority approvals. We provide the drawings and engineering support for the application.

How do I get a quotation?

Share drawings or photos of the existing building and what you want to add, and we will arrange a survey.
