The Benefits of Custom Pole Buildings
Pole buildings—also known as post-frame construction—are a popular and economical choice for a wide variety of projects. Built using sturdy wood posts anchored deep into the ground and typically finished with metal siding and roofing, these structures offer exceptional durability, flexibility, and long-term value.
One of the biggest advantages of custom pole buildings is their versatility. Whether you’re planning a garage, workshop, storage shed, horse barn, or even a recreational space, pole construction adapts easily to your layout and functional needs. The open interior design eliminates the need for load-bearing interior walls, giving you maximum freedom to configure the space exactly how you want it.
In addition to their flexible design, pole buildings are typically faster and more cost-effective to build than traditional stick-frame buildings. The reduced material requirements and simplified foundation work often translate into significant savings in both time and money. And with quality materials like metal roofing and siding, you can count on low maintenance and long-lasting performance for years to come.

Pole Barns - FAQ
What is the lifespan of a pole building?
Pole buildings are very durable and can last anywhere from 40 to 60 years, and potentially even longer, given they receive proper maintenance.
Is it cheaper to build a pole barn or stick-built?
Because pole barns are built with fewer materials, they tend to be slightly more cost-effective. They also typically take less time to build than stick-built structures.
What kind of warranty do I receive with my pole barn?
We offer a lifetime labor warranty on our recommendations. This excludes damage from unforeseen events, weather, misuse, or natural wood changes. Material warranties are provided by the supplier/manufacturer.
What are the standard sizes for pole buildings, and can they be customized?
Pole buildings are highly versatile structures with no fixed standard sizes. However, poles are typically placed on either 10ft, 12ft, 14ft, or 15ft centers. Common building dimensions include:
- 24′ x 36′
- 36′ x 48′
- 48′ x 60′
