TWO MODULES. MORE ROOM.

ModuSteel FLEX DUO 342

Connect two FLEX 171 modules to create a larger office, guest suite or compact home. The side-by-side concept targets an 18 × 19 ft footprint and 342 sq ft of gross exterior area.

2 × FLEX 171

Connected at your property

342 sq ft

Target gross footprint

  • LIVE + GUEST: living / kitchenette space alongside a separate sleeping room.
  • LIVE + WORK: compact living space with a dedicated office or creative studio.
  • WORK + WORK: a larger studio, two work zones or a meeting room and office.
  • Retain both bathroom cores or request a shared-bathroom redesign with storage or laundry in the second service area.

DUO is a custom concept quoted as one project, including the engineered connecting opening, foundation, anchoring, weather seal and utility coordination. Usable interior area and any 9 × 38 ft end-to-end alternative depend on the approved design. The combined unit is assembled on site; each transport module follows the planned FLEX 171 shipping approach.

MODUSTEEL OUTDOOR LIVING

Make the backyard part of the plan.

Add an outdoor deck and the amenities you want with either FLEX 171 or DUO 342. Select your preferences below; we will include them in your property review and project-specific quote.

Choose optional amenities

All outdoor additions are optional and priced separately in your proposal. Decks and other outdoor structures are outside the 171 / 342 sq ft unit footprint. Equipment, foundations and structural loads, stairs/rails, clearances, power, water, drainage and applicable approvals are evaluated for your property. Financing of additions depends on lender eligibility and the final quoted scope.

PROPOSED RESERVATION PROGRAM

Start with a $1,000 reservation.

Your reservation payment is credited toward the full purchase deposit. Once your lender approves the project financing in writing, you have 30 calendar days to complete the remaining required deposit.

01

Reserve with $1,000 per project

Request a reservation review. A reservation becomes effective only after ModuSteel accepts the signed reservation agreement and receives the payment.

02

Confirm the lender's percentage

For planning: 80% financing leaves a 20% deposit; 70% financing leaves a 30% deposit. The actual financed amount, eligible costs and required cash depend on your lender.

03

Complete the deposit in 30 days

Remaining deposit = the lender-required total deposit minus your $1,000 reservation credit. Pay the balance within 30 calendar days after written project financing approval, subject to your signed reservation terms and lender documents.

FLEX 171 remains in development. This page requests a review and does not collect payment or create a binding reservation. Written terms will address financing denial, permit/product approval, cancellation, refunds and any earlier lender funding deadline before funds are accepted. Financing approval and completion of the deposit do not replace product, permit or site approvals.

A PAYMENT PLAN STARTS WITH YOUR BUDGET

Explore financing for your FLEX 171.

Compare independent financing resources, then use the terms from a lender quote to plan your monthly budget. The 70% and 80% financed shares below are planning scenarios. Your actual loan, required deposit and FLEX 171 eligibility must be confirmed directly with the lender.

These are independent resources, not confirmed ModuSteel financing partners. FLEX 171's imported product and installation eligibility have not been approved by these providers.

Calculate your monthly budget

Enter a lender's quoted fixed note interest rate and repayment term. This calculator supplies arithmetic only; it does not supply or offer credit terms.

A payment that fits starts with real terms.

Compare 70% or 80% financing using a lender quote. The $1,000 reservation is the first part of your deposit; it does not replace the remaining 20% or 30% cash requirement.

After written financing approval, complete the lender-required deposit within 30 calendar days under your reservation agreement. Only the lender can confirm the loan and payment. No reservation payment is collected here.

A PLACE FOR THE ESSENTIALS

Small footprint. Thoughtful layout.

The fixed bathroom and utility core leave a flexible main room. WORK and GUEST keep the kitchenette connections capped; LIVE adds the compact kitchen. Furniture can change as your needs evolve. Any new sleeping, cooking, dwelling or rental use still requires the relevant approvals.

Built in the factory. Completed for your property.

The planned approach combines Dominican Republic factory production with local foundation work, approved assembly, utility connections and exterior finishing. The goal is more work completed in a controlled setting and a defined scope on site.

01 / Factory preparation

Steel structure, wet core, rough plumbing and electrical, and most interior finishes. Approved factory inspections must verify work before it is concealed.

02 / Site installation

Site-specific foundation, engineered anchors, dry-side assembly, weatherproof joints and licensed utility connections. Final exterior cladding and interior seams are completed on site.

03 / Final approvals

Required site inspections and final approval for your intended use. Delivery alone does not authorize sleeping or dwelling occupancy.

How does a 9 ft-wide unit travel in a container?

A rigid 9 ft-wide module does not fit through a standard container door. FLEX 171 is planned around a compact 7 ft 3 in-wide transport core with a 21 in dry-side extension assembled at the property. The target packed envelope is 7 ft 3 in × 19 ft × 8 ft 2 in, including protection. Packing capacity, lifting, lashing and assembly must be validated with engineering and a physical prototype before delivery commitments.
