Ready solutions: steel buildings and structures
LGSF mansard addition for apartment buildings, hotels, offices and commercial buildings — from 2 months, no business interruption
A mansard floor is the fastest and most affordable way to expand your building's area. Here's how it works for different property types:
Own a 5-story building with 40 apartments? A mansard means 8–12 more apartments for sale or rent. Construction cost — 50% below market price per m²
+8–12 apartments for sale10 additional rooms in a mansard = +3,000,000 UAH/year revenue. Guests love rooms with mansard windows and city views — premium segment
+3,000,000 UAH/year revenueA mansard floor with panoramic windows — the most valuable office space in the building. Tenants pay premium for non-standard spaces with views
Premium rent +30–50%Conference rooms, coworking spaces, server rooms, archives — a mansard solves the space shortage without buying adjacent land or new construction
No new land plot neededAll premises occupied, rooms booked, offices leased — and the queue grows. You're losing profit every day
A separate building means land, foundation, utilities from scratch. Slow, expensive, risky
Above your building lies untapped potential. Every month without a mansard means hundreds of thousands in lost revenue
Additional apartments, penthouses, studios — for sale or rent. Construction cost 50% below market
Rooms with unique design, mansard windows, city views — premium segment with higher room rates
Offices, coworking, conference rooms — non-standard spaces with panoramic windows and premium rent

* Calculation is approximate. Precise estimate after site inspection
Light gauge steel framing weighs 3-5 times less than brick or reinforced concrete. An LGSF mansard is the lightest addition option, suitable even for older buildings.
No foundation reinforcement — 30–40% budget savings
From 2 months — start using the space sooner
Structures manufactured at the factory — only assembly on site
Modern thermal insulation — warm mansard year-round
Non-combustible materials, compliant with building codes
Service life 50+ years
Real project — mansard floor addition
They added a mansard floor to our office building in 3 months. The office didn't stop for a single day. Tenants moved in two weeks after completion. We recouped the investment in less than a year.
We deliberated between a new building and a mansard addition. Chose REDIKON — no regrets. Saved 40% of budget, got 800 m² of quality space.
Professional team — from building inspection to mansard commissioning. They handled all the permits. I recommend for serious projects.

LGSF structures are 3-5 times lighter than traditional materials. A mansard is the lightest type of addition. Before design, we conduct a structural survey and calculate the permissible load.
No. Installation is carried out from above — in stages, without affecting residents, tenants, or building operations.
From 2 months — depending on the area. Structures are manufactured in parallel with site preparation.
In most cases — no. A mansard from LGSF places minimal load on existing structures. This is the lightest type of addition.
We handle the full cycle: design, expertise, permits, commissioning. In some cases, mansard additions have a simplified approval process.
5+ years on structures and installation. LGSF service life — 50+ years.
Yes. Thanks to the minimal weight of LGSF, a mansard is suitable even for older buildings. We will conduct a survey and find the optimal solution.
