Pole Barns & Post-Frame Buildings in McKenzie, TN
PAC Building Pro builds custom pole barns and post-frame buildings in McKenzie and across Carroll County, Tennessee — right on your property. We’re a family-run contractor based in Waverly, about 95 miles southeast in Humphreys County. It’s a reasonable drive, and we’re happy to serve McKenzie-area property owners looking for quality post-frame construction, metal garages, shops, and more.
What We Build for McKenzie Property Owners
Our core work is custom pole barns and post-frame buildings, built on-site to your specifications. Whether you need equipment storage, a farm shop, vehicle cover, or a combination workspace, we design and construct the building where it will stand — no prefab shell trucked in.
We also build custom stick-frame garages and workshops on your property, and we offer delivered products including portable buildings, steel carports, and prefab metal garages.
Common pole barn sizes include 30×40 for small shops and a few vehicles, 40×60 for larger equipment and RV storage, and 60×80 for commercial or agricultural use. Every building is tailored to your land, your needs, and your budget.
Why Post-Frame Construction Works Well in West Tennessee
Pole barns — also called post-frame buildings — use pressure-treated posts set in the ground or on concrete pads instead of a continuous poured foundation. This saves time and cost, especially on rural Carroll County sites.
Roof and wall panels are typically 29-gauge steel; posts are 6×6 treated timbers; engineered trusses span the width. PAC provides building drawings engineered to meet Tennessee’s snow load (10 pounds per square foot) and the local wind speed requirements (90 mph design wind speed for most of Middle and West Tennessee under state residential code).
Whether you need an enclosed shop with doors and windows, a three-sided hay shelter, or an insulated, wired workspace, post-frame adapts. You choose the features; we build it to last.

Permits and zoning in Carroll County
Permit and code requirements vary from one county and city to the next, and we don’t claim to know every local rule — so what your build needs depends on your exact location. As a general guide, a site inside a city’s limits usually needs a building permit from that city, unincorporated county land can have different requirements, and some agricultural buildings are treated differently.
Before you start, check the current permit, setback, and zoning requirements with the local codes or building office for Carroll County. PAC includes building drawings engineered for the local snow and wind loads with every custom build, and we can provide PE-stamped plans on request when a jurisdiction requires them (added cost and lead time). The permit is the property owner’s responsibility, and we’re glad to walk you through what’s typically needed.

We offer financing for custom pole barns and on-site builds, along with cash payment.
Once we agree on a plan, we handle the construction on your property. You get a building designed for Carroll County conditions, built by a crew that takes pride in the work.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a pole barn in Carroll County?
It depends on your exact location. Permit rules vary by county and city, and we always recommend checking with your local Carroll County codes or building office before you start — we don’t claim to know every jurisdiction’s requirements. As a general guide, a site inside a city’s limits usually needs a city building permit, unincorporated county land can differ, and some agricultural buildings are treated differently. PAC provides the engineered drawings and documentation your jurisdiction requires.
How far will PAC travel to build in McKenzie?
McKenzie is near the outer edge of our service area — about 95 miles northwest of our Waverly home base. We do build in Carroll County and are happy to provide a quote and discuss your project.
Can I finance a pole barn?
Yes. PAC offers financing for custom pole barns and post-frame buildings built on your property, as well as cash payment. Financing terms and approval depend on the lender. Call (931) 296-2777 or visit our website to discuss financing options when you request a quote.
What’s the difference between a pole barn and a metal building?
The terms overlap. A pole barn is a type of post-frame building that uses embedded posts and steel panels; many people also call any steel-sided agricultural or shop building a metal building. PAC specializes in post-frame construction — the method that uses treated posts, engineered trusses, and metal roofing and siding. It’s cost-effective, durable, and well-suited to Tennessee weather and rural sites.
