METAL BARNS

Design Your Barn However You Need It!

By choosing THE BOSS, you have the freedom of designing your metal barn or garage building exactly the way you want! Which customization options will you choose? You’re in the driver’s seat, and it’s up to you to select everything from prefab barn dimensions, to roof type, to the gauge of your steel components, trim, colors, doors, windows, certification requirements, and more!

Building Dimensions

How big does your metal barn need to be? You can choose a smaller steel barn, of you can go with a width of all the way up to 70’. You can also choose pretty much any length you like. Need your prefab metal barn to be taller so you can accommodate a tractor or other big items? We can provide what you need!

Steel Gauges

14-gauge is a common standard for steel barn framing, but you also have the option of choosing a thicker, 12-gauge steel for an even more rugged steel barn. You choose the gauge of your barn’s metal roofing and siding, too.

Certification

Does your location require certification of metal structures like barns? We can design your metal barn to meet any necessary wind or snow loads. And even if certification isn’t required, you can still choose a certified metal building for greater peace of mind.

Gables, Trim, and Anchors

Add gables to the front or back for greater reinforcement and a finished look. Decorative J-trim can be used to cover the edges of your panels. Plus, we have anchors to secure your metal barn to almost any type of installation surface, even level ground!

Colors

You can go with a more traditional “barn red” … or you can go your own way and choose from among our other attractive color options for your roof panels, side paneling, and trim. You can even choose a two-tone wainscot look, if you like.

More Ways to Customize, Too!

Metal Barns Are Really Better Barns

What’s so great about a metal barn? Pretty much everything! Here are just a few features that make a steel barn from BOSS BUILDINGS a better choice than any stick-build or pole barn:

Durability

Steel barns aren’t susceptible to rot like wood, and they endure constant use. They also provide superior protection from rain, snow, wind, even lightning.

No Threat from Pests or Fire

Termites and other pests don’t bother steel either. Neither does mold or mildew. What about fire? Steel is inflammable.

Customize & Expand More Easily

Steel buildings offer flexible design and more usable interior space than wooden barns. Steel structures are easier to adapt or expand with your future needs, too.

Easy to Maintain

Wooden barns require painting or staining, and need repainting or restaining every few years. Metal barns aren’t covered with traditional paint, and their colors won’t fade or peel over time. Metal barns are a snap to clean, too. Just hose it out with a pressure washer, and you’re done!

Some Handy Tips to Help You Get Ready

One of the first things you should decide is how you plan to use your steel barn. Consider how much space you’ll need to accommodate your animals, supplies, or whatever else. Factor in the length, width, and height of these items so you’re sure to get a large enough metal barn. In hindsight, most customers wish they’d chosen a bigger building, not a smaller one. Once you’ve made your decision and placed your order, here a few things you can do to get your site ready for installation:

• Obtain any needed building permits, if required in your area
• Make sure your site is level
• Mark any buried utility lines on or near your site
• Clear enough space around your site (at least 3’ on all sides) so our crew will have sufficient room to work
• Make sure to let us know which foundation you’ll be installing on, so we can be sure to bring the correct anchors
