History

Founded in 1901, the company has a rich history of metal building construction. Trachte’s early structures are easily identifiable by their barrel-vaulted roofs, serving as garages, aircraft hangars, gas stations, restaurants and more through out the Midwest. Trachte’s early structures can still be found throughout the Madison area and are considered by many to be an important part of the area history. Today, Trachte is the top producer of self storage buildings in North America, with buildings in all 50 states and numerous foreign countries, offering complete design and building services. In addition to stand-alone buildings, Trachte designs, manufactures, and installs components to convert existing buildings into self storage businesses.
