Better Barn Siding Save Money Over Time - Article from Designer Metals
PermaGuard Designer Metals – Real Steel. Wood Feel. Built to Last.

When you’re planning to build a horse barn, arena, or ranch building, the options can feel overwhelming. Do you go with traditional wood for that classic look? Or steel for long-term durability? What if you could have the warmth and beauty of wood with the unmatched strength and longevity of steel?
That’s exactly what PermaGuard Designer Metals delivers. The Beauty of Wood – Without the Headaches

PermaGuard siding is crafted from 26 or 28 gauge steel, engineered to look exactly like real wood , right down to the grain.
Unlike traditional wood, it never needs staining or repainting every 3–5 years, and it’s completely resistant to carpenter bees, woodpeckers, and rot. Your barn will keep its fresh, beautiful look year after year without the constant upkeep.
With Kynar 500® paint system technology and a 50-year warranty, PermaGuard siding offers the best weather protection in the industry.
That means no fading, no peeling, and no costly repairs!

Stand Out With Wood Grain Metal
Flat-colored steel can look plain — but wood grain steel turns heads. The rich, natural tones of Red Oak, Pine, or Designer Red give your barn a high-end custom look that elevates your entire property. The cost difference compared to plain colors is only about 5–10%, yet the improvement in appearance is dramatic.

Add a wood grain truss to the ends of your barn and you’ll have an architectural accent that looks like fine carpentry — without the maintenance.
Stone Looks Without the Stone Hassle
Want even more style? PermaGuard offers Stackstone Shadow steel panels — a realistic stone pattern made from steel. You get the rugged beauty of stacked stone without the weight, slow installation, or high cost of real masonry.
Customize Your Barn’s Style

PermaGuard isn’t just about color — it’s about profiles too. Choose a board and batten profile for an even more authentic wood look, or mix and match textures for a completely unique barn design.
A Smart Investment in Your Property
When you invest in PermaGuard siding, you’re saving yourself decades of repainting, pest damage repair, and weather-related maintenance. That’s more time and money to spend on what really matters — caring for your horses and enjoying your property.

PermaGuard Designer Metals means:
- The warmth of wood, the strength of steel
- 50-year warranty for peace of mind
- Resistant to pests, rot, and fading
- Low maintenance with high visual appeal
