Frequently Asked Questions
Buying a steel barn is a big process, but Pacific Metal Buildings makes the journey easy. You’re bound to have a few questions about what to expect. To help, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about metal barns.
1. Is it cheaper to build a barn with wood or metal?
Metal barns are generally cheaper than wood barns. Metal is often less expensive to purchase and requires less maintenance over time, saving you money in the long run.
2. How long will a metal barn last?
Metal barns are known for their durability and longevity. With proper maintenance, a metal barn can last anywhere from 20 to 50 years or even longer, depending on factors like weather conditions and maintenance practices.
3. Do I need a permit for a steel barn in California?
Yes, you typically need a permit to build a steel barn in California. Building codes and permit requirements vary by location, so it’s essential to check with your local authorities or a professional to ensure compliance with regulations.
4. Do metal buildings get hot?
Metal buildings can get hot, especially in sunny climates. However, proper insulation and ventilation can help regulate the temperature inside your building, making it more comfortable for both humans and animals.
5. What different types of metal barns are available?
Pacific Metal Buildings offers several styles of steel barns, including:
Classic:
This structure type is a great economical option with a rounded roof with a shallow peak.
Vertical:
Vertical roofs feature paneling arranged vertically from the top of the structure. This design allows rain, snow, and storm debris to slide harmlessly away from the barn, saving you time and money in maintenance and repair.
Country:
This steel barn features a central structure flanked by two lean-tos on each side. The roofing panels are not continuous, giving the structure a ‘drop-down’ look often found in barns and rural structures.
Lean-to Sheds:
A lean-to is a freestanding structure with a single, sloping roof. They’re often used for agricultural projects and work well for any storage need.
