How much does an EscapeSpace cost and what are the sizes?
Base prices for EscapeSpace start at around $12,000 for a shell but prices vary depending on size, model and options. Choose your favorite model here. Normal sizes range from 8’ x 8’ to 8’ x 16’ but can be modified to fit your needs.
​
Does the unit come fully constructed or is this a kit?
Can I buy Plans? Every EscapeSpace is delivered complete and ready for you to enjoy...no construction hassles, noise or extra time. Assuming the site is ready and accessible, the installation time is under a few hours. Plans are not currently available.
​
How quickly can I get one?
Many times we have units in stock for quick delivery from our factory. Otherwise, depending on the options you choose, you can have your EscapeSpace in less than 60 days.
​
What does delivery cost?
Delivery charges depend on your location. We have our own trucking company with knowledgeable drivers who will go over your EscapeSpace with you when delivered.
​
How much space is needed to deliver a building?
A vertical space of 14' measured from the ground is required. Be sure to take any tree branches and utility wires into account. While our drivers are very skilled, they will still need a minimum of 1' of space to maneuver the shed through an opening. That is, a shed 12' wide will require a 14-foot wide space (1 foot on each side) if the approach is straight. If you would like to discuss a delivery, please email us at info@escapespace.net
What about site preparation?
You need to be sure your site is level and firm. You can use any material such as concrete, black top, compacted gravel or even a firm, flat yard for your site pad as long as it is level and firm. Our buildings are designed to rest directly on their skids; we level the building using treated wood blocks. If you would like to have your building on concrete blocks, we only require that you provide the blocks.
​
Can I have electric in my unit?
Can it operate off-grid? Certainly. See the model and options here. As for off-grid, solar power is always a good idea especially with the low power consumption of EscapeSpace. All the EscapeSpace lights are 12v and our solar power system comes with a battery back-up.
​
What about plumbing?
Yes we can add plumbing even a bathroom. Be sure to check that you are allowed this option in your area.
​
Is there a warranty?
Absolutely. We stand behind the integrity of EscapeSpace with a full 2 year warranty on construction.

Where do I see units...are there dealers?

Do I need permits?
Most local municipalities allow portable buildings or sheds on private property. Occasionally there are size restrictions. You are responsible for contacting your local city and county agencies in regard to zoning, permits, setbacks, and covenants. Also, it is recommended that you contact your Home Owners Association (if applicable) to determine what neighborhood rules and regulations may be apply.
