Key Construction

Since our inception in 1978, Key has remained dedicated to the relationships we form with everyone from clients to subcontractors. Today, we are one of the nation's leading commercial general contractors. The $100 million two-story, 273,000-square-foot terminal is a state-of-the-art modern architectural design that expresses "flight" and Wichita's globally prominent position in the aviation manufacturing industry as the Air Capital of the World. In 2019, Key Construction completed a brand-new Ronald McDonald House in Wichita, which is now the largest Ronald McDonald House in the state of Kansas.

Key Construction is a leading commercial construction company in the country, serving nearly 40 states nationwide. Founded in 1978 by brothers Ken and Dave Wells, Key has offices in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. Key Construction is considered part of an "essential" industry, and thus, will remain operational during any "Stay-at-Home" orders. Be assured that we are committed to doing what's best for the wellbeing of our employees and customers, so we have appropriate business continuity plans in place.

Key's long and diverse history of successful industrial projects has given us first-hand understanding of construction phasing, coordination with owners, architects, and subcontractors, and the absolute importance of deadlines and schedules. In our industrial projects we strive for little or no interruption of the customer's production. We're comfortable working around complex industrial processes and specialized systems. We understand occupational hazards and the additional safety regulations that always apply in industrial settings.

The resolve of a perfectionist and the heart of a historian are just two things necessary for bringing the past into the present. To achieve this, the structure's historical fabric must be maintained, while all necessary modern amenities are woven throughout. If the heritage of a structure has survived for decades we are dedicated to extending its life for decades to come. Key Construction has completed many impressive historical renovation projects throughout the Midwest. Select a featured project to learn more!
