Roof Style
Now that you have your color scheme dialed, it’s time to decide what style of roof you want on your metal horse barn. We offer three primary roof designs for all of our metal buildings; regular, boxed-eave, and vertical. Here’s a breakdown of each of these styles to help you figure out which one would work best for you:
Regular Style Roof
The regular style roof is a traditional, rounded corner roof with horizontal roof panels. The regular style is generally the most economic and affordable product.
Boxed-Eave Style Roof
This is “A” frame roof takes on the look of a traditional home and instead of curving to meet the walls, it remains straight and can provide some overhang. With horizontal metal roof panels, this is an upgrade from the regular style that is stylish and affordable.
Vertical Style Roof
The vertical style roof is styled the same as the box-eave style, but instead of the horizontal panels, it has vertical panelling. This allows rain and snow to slide right off the roof and is more ideal for climates with heaving precipitation.
Accessorize
Once you have determined your color scheme and roofing style that you like, it is time to customize even more! From garage doors and windows to corner braces and framed doorways, the options to make your metal horse barn one-of-a-kind are endless. If you plan to spend a lot of time in the barn working, we suggest adding some additional windows to allow natural light into the space. If you anticipate coming in and out of the barn frequently, you might want to consider walk-in doors. Walk us through your day-to-day tasks, and we will design your barn to fit those needs.
