Metal Horse Barn Information
Metal horse barns are significantly less expensive to install than wood barns and are virtually maintenance free—they never need repainting or re-staining and are not susceptible to warping, cracking, rotting, mold, or infestations. Built with rust-inhibiting galvanized steel, a 12- or 14-gauge metal barn can handle wind speeds of up to 130 miles per hour, and it can be installed on soil, gravel, asphalt, or concrete and insulated for protection from heat, cold, and condensation.

In the market for a new barn?
This is a great time to make your purchase. There are currently a wide variety of wood and metal barns out there to choose from. While metal barns have be-come increasingly popular over the last couple of decades, many people don't know much about what they are made of, how they perform over time, and what customization options are available. Here is a list of commonly asked questions about metal barns, along with answers from experts in the field.
1.Can Metal Barns Withstand Strong Storms As Well As Wooden Barns? Answer: Yes. Depending on where you live, it is important to understand which metal barn de-signs will work best with your climate. For example, if you live in an area prone to hurricanes or high winds and hail, you will want to go with a 12- or 14 -gauge steel that can handle wind speeds of up to 130 miles per hour and is more dent-resistant than higher gauge steel barns. The anchors used during an installation will also be a factor. Choose a highly rated metal build-ing manufacturer with the experience to help you make the best decisions regarding the op-tions for metal horse barns or metal storage barns in your area.
