Metal studs and their matching tracks form the steel skeleton behind most drywall partitions in Philippine offices, condominiums and commercial fit outs. Compared to wood framing, metal studs resist termites and warping, which is why architects increasingly specify them for interior walls even in residential renovations.
Framing costs are driven by the stud size, which relates to the wall thickness needed, and by the metal gauge, which affects how rigid the finished partition feels. The table below covers the sizes most commonly requested by contractors.
Metal Studs Price List Philippines

What Affects Metal Studs Price Prices
- Stud width, since 76mm framing costs more than 50mm but is often required for taller partitions or added insulation space
- Metal gauge, as 0.6mm studs feel noticeably more rigid underfoot than thinner 0.5mm profiles
- Zinc coating quality, which affects long term corrosion resistance in humid or coastal environments
- Order volume, since large commercial fit outs that buy studs and tracks in bulk usually receive better per piece rates
- Matching accessories, such as screws and resilient channels, which add a modest amount to the total framing cost
Buying Tips Before You Purchase
- ✓ Confirm both stud and track dimensions match, since a track that is too tight or loose makes installation difficult
- ✓ Check the studs are straight and free of visible bending, particularly on stock that has been stored outdoors
- ✓ Ask for the coating specification, since a light coating can corrode faster in bathrooms or exterior applications
- ✓ Order five to ten percent extra length to account for cutting waste at corners and openings
