Full Metal Jacket: Why NYC Shanty’s All-Metal Shanties Lead the Industry

Attention, NYC construction companies! Elevate your job site safety with NYC Shanty’s 100% all-metal, knock-down shanties—the only fully metal shanties designed for strength, compliance, and versatility. As an M/WBE-certified supplier, we deliver FDNY-compliant solutions trusted on iconic projects like Hudson Yards, JFK T8 ($400M expansion), and Central Park Tower. Our shanties, like the 8×8 model, are built with patented

“Z.Lock” panels, using galvannealed steel that’s non-combustible, mold-resistant, and recyclable. Compliant with NYC Building Code 3303.16, which mandates “contractor sheds and shanties shall be made of metal or non-combustible material” within 30 feet of structures, our shanties ensure your site meets FDNY standards without compromise.

Why Choose NYC Shanty?

Our shanties are lighter, stronger, and faster to assemble than traditional options, requiring just two people, a ladder, and a screw gun. Customizable in 2-foot increments, they serve as offices, storage, or changing areas, tailored to your needs. Pair them with FDNY-compliant add-ons like the Buckeye 20 LB ABC Miniguard Fire Extinguisher (with first-year FDNY inspection tag) or Smoke Alarm for comprehensive safety.

For climate control, our 18,000 BTU A/C Unit with a 4’ A/C Panel keeps your crew comfortable. Delivery and pick-up for rentals streamline logistics, making NYC Shanty the go-to choice for sustainable, USA-manufactured solutions crafted less than 50 miles from NYC.
