Metal Barns
A metal barn is a steel-constructed, barn-style structure, offering a modern and durable alternative to traditional wooden barns. Unlike wood, steel barns are fire-resistant, weatherproof, and low-maintenance, making them an excellent choice for agricultural storage, vehicle protection, and workshop spaces.
Metal barns are typically designed with a standard carport base and lean-tos on both sides, providing ample space for housing multiple vehicles, including cars and RVs. They can also be fully enclosed like a garage, offering secure storage for farm equipment, hay, or livestock.
We offer high-quality metal barn kits for easy assembly, as well as fully customizable options in a variety of sizes, styles, and colors. Built with 12- or 14-gauge steel tubing, our barns are engineered for strength and longevity, ensuring a reliable structure that lasts a legacy.

Building Metal Barns
Building a metal barn requires proper planning and site preparation to ensure a stable, long-lasting structure. Metal barns can be installed on various foundation types, including dirt, gravel, concrete, or asphalt, depending on the intended use and structural requirements. While metal barns can be anchored to most surfaces, a concrete foundation is often recommended for maximum stability and durability.
Before installation, the building site must be level and clear of obstructions to ensure proper assembly and structural integrity. It’s also essential to maintain a clear perimeter of at least 4 feet around the site for ease of installation. In cases where a telescopic lift is required for taller barns, up to 30 feet of clearance may be necessary for safe maneuvering and construction.
Proper site preparation helps ensure a smooth installation process and enhances the longevity of the structure. By choosing the right foundation and preparing the site accordingly, you can create a durable and functional metal barn designed to meet your agricultural, storage, or commercial needs.
Metal Barn Kits
Metal barn kits provide a cost-effective and convenient solution for those looking to assemble a durable storage or agricultural structure on their own. These kits include all the necessary components and hardware for construction, such as steel framing, roof and wall panels, braces, and anchors, ensuring a sturdy and reliable build.
Assembling a metal barn kit requires basic tools and DIY skills, making it an attractive option for those looking to save on installation costs. Available in various sizes and designs, these kits offer flexibility to accommodate livestock, farm equipment, vehicles, or general storage needs.
While a DIY installation is possible, we highly recommend professional assembly to ensure proper anchoring, structural integrity, and long-term durability. With a metal barn kit, you get an affordable, customizable, and long-lasting shelter built to withstand the elements.
Metal Barn Cost & Prices
The prices for metal barns can fluctuate depending on the size of the structure and all of the bells and whistles you want in a steel structure. Generally, metal barns have a starting price of nearly five thousand dollars. We do offer a few small and very minimalistic structures under five thousand. The average cost of barns that we typically sell are priced between $8,000.00 and $15,000.00 and can very well exceed that amount if you wish to enclose the structure or turn into a living quarters.
