Their ruggedness provides farmers like you with reliable and robust infrastructure without breaking the bank. Moreover, they are easy to customize to meet your requirements. How? Read on so we can explore different ways to personalize your steel barn.

Why customize your steel barn?

Before we share ways to customize your steel barn, we want to answer a very important question: Why customize it in the first place? Essentially, customizing a steel building means modifying its design and functionality to meet your requirements and preferences. We have skilled and experienced building consultants to work with you to create an optimized and personalized space.

Make the building adapt to your needs.

Custom steel barns can meet your current needs and adapt to the changes in your farm, such as new technologies or growth. The modular framing system simplifies expansions, so you can extend the building sideways or upward while minimizing costly renovations and disruptions.

Enhanced functionality

Customizing a steel barn lets you optimize its layout and functionality, ensuring that the resulting structure matches your needs. By modifying the spatial organization and design, you can create an effective space that maximizes productivity and enhances workflow. The clear-span framing of our prefabricated steel barns allows you to make the most of the interior space for any requirement.

Fulfill your branding and aesthetic goals.

Our prefabricated custom steel barns can be incorporated with any interior or exterior finish and construction material, ensuring they won’t look too industrial. This ensures your barn reflects your unique architectural vision and brand identity. No matter your style, our building consultants will help you pick the right finishes, features, materials, and color schemes to create a visually attractive and distinctive barn.

Compliance with local building codes

At Armstrong Steel, we engineer custom steel barns according to your location’s building codes and load-bearing standards. Customization ensures your barn meets industry standards, preventing potential penalties and compliance issues down the road. Plus, it ensures the safety of your crops, livestock, and farm equipment.

A barn you can be proud to call your own

Customizing your prefabricated steel barn lets you add your personal touch to the building. This creates a sense of pride and ownership that fosters a positive living or work environment.

How to customize your steel barn

Not all prefabricated steel barns are customized. Some fabricators leave no room for personalization and offer only cookie-cutter designs. But Armstrong Steel is different. Our pre-engineered steel buildings are carefully customized to meet your exact requirements, ensuring you get the barn of your dreams.

Define your needs

We highly encourage you to define your requirements clearly when you engage us for custom steel barns. Consider the desired layout and size, the purpose of your barn, and the special features you expect. Our building consultants will also walk you through factors like the number and type of doors, rooms, and windows. Assessing these things can streamline the personalization process.

Pick a style

Pre-engineered steel barns come in various styles, such as a gable, monitor, single slope, or gambrel. Think about how you want your barn to look, from the roof design to the exterior aesthetics and interior space requirements. Ultimately, your choice should meet your aesthetic and functional needs.

In addition to the style, take the time to size your structure. At Armstrong Steel, we offer prefabricated custom steel barns in virtually any length, height, and width to meet zoning regulations and the available space on your farm. Deciding on the dimensions now can also simplify future expansions

Customize your floor plan.

Our building consultants will work with you to personalize the floor plan. At this point, we will determine the structural elements, such as the size and number of doors, windows, and rooms. We will also consider the specialized machinery and equipment you plan to store in your barn, along with factors like accessibility and your unique workflow. Our goal is to create an efficient and functional space that can optimize your operations and productivity.

Get creative with the exterior features.

Customizing the exterior is one of the fun parts of personalizing custom steel barns. Our prefabricated steel buildings can be finished in any color or material, ensuring your barn won’t look like a warehouse or an industrial facility. We can design your structure to support any roof or wall design, including shingles, stucco, and brick, ensuring an aesthetically pleasing barn that looks consistent with the rest of your property.
