Metal Barns
Modern barns are cost-effective prefab metal buildings designed to stand up to a wide variety of weather conditions and age. Compared to traditional wood barns, these fire-resistant metal buildings use high quality steel building materials, producing greater strength and resistance to decay. They are an ideal storage space for farming equipment, supplies and livestock, as a horse barn, or as a general storage building. They can be designed with “farm charm” using a large array of color options and customization options, enhancing the value or your property for years to come.
The Summit prefab metal barn is a cost-effective option that features the regular roof profile with horizontal metal panel orientation. Rather than the roof extending out to form an eave on the sides, the ends of each steel roof truss are curved downward, providing additional and height without the cost of purchasing taller steel posts. Because the metal panels run gable-to-gable (end-to-end), they are curved around the ends of the roof trusses. The Summit’s affordable prices include enclosure of the gables with horizontal metal panels at both ends of the center structure and lean-to sections as well as FREE delivery and installation for level and direct-access job sites. Additional labor fees may apply depending on potential jobsite issues.

The Pinnacle metal barn has a continuous roof line that runs from the peak of the center section to the outsides of each lean-to and has 4-6″ of overhang on each eave and on the ends. The one-piece welded roof trusses make this metal barn the strongest of all the options, making it ideal for areas that are prone to high winds and snow loads. Fully enclosing this steel structure with metal siding panels, adding some windows and doors, and choosing your colors will make the Pinnacle metal barn as attractive as it is useful. The Pinnacle metal barn is available in either horizontal or vertical roofing and wall siding panel orientation.

MATERIAL UPGRADES AND OPTIONS
The Apex metal barn (sometimes known as a “monitor” style barn) features a taller center section and lower lean-to sides that all feature boxed eaves with horizontal roofing panels as standard. With 4-6″ of overhand on the sides and ends, the boxed-eave (or “A-frame”) roof style creates a more traditional and attractive roof line for your metal barn. Vertical panels finished with boxed trim are an upgrade and are recommended in areas where snow load or debris from trees may collect on the roof as the metal panel ribs run from peak to edge to assist drainage.
