30' x 40' Barn with Lean - Build Progress

   / 30' x 40' Barn with Lean - Build Progress #21  
We don't often see standing seam on pole barns. Expensive but it's forever. It sure looks like a premium build. Are you going to insulate and heat/cool?

Unfortunately, no heating and cooling or insulation in the plans for now. Its just an ambient barn. We will have concrete for the floor, the lean will be filled with correct grade of crushed limestone. The ceiling will be 12' 1" high; a 2-post lift I am considering getting some day requires a min. of 12' clearance. The builder is going to reinforce two 3' square floor sections for the potential lift also. My better halves horse(s) and pigs come first :).

I understand that. When we built, we spent more per square foot for our stables than for our house.

One door installed. Works effortlessly. Double latches on sliding doors; one on each inner side.

They are building a 10' X 12' sliding door for the rear of the barn, similar to the stall and pen doors.

What's the reason for the small sliding door?
