Barn and Arena Construction
behind the beauty of a Custom Barns’ structure
Before the foundation is poured or the land is leveled, Custom Barns’ professionals spend time designing your facility to exacting standards. Whether your structure is a post and beam barn or a dressage arena, our ultimate goal is to ensure that each barn we build exceeds your expectations.
This means that the building answers all your equine and storage needs; that it features adequate space for exercising your animals; that it allows you to keep food and tack in areas designed specifically for these items; and that it will last for years of daily use.
The professional techniques we use include post and beam and pole barn construction. These approaches are decidedly different in their benefits.
A post and beam barn is typically the strongest and best style of horse barn. Structures built with this type of construction are still standing after 100 years and Custom Barns recognizes the inherent style and strength of this technique.
The steps to creating your custom horse barn include evaluating your location, understanding your situation, making recommendations, creating your barn plan and then assembling a team of veterans to complete your project. It’s that simple. We communicate with our customers and answer any questions they have.
Pole barn construction is typically used in structures that require a large roof span and a wide-open riding area. The materials used can vary, but roof loads and the requirement of clear riding space sometimes necessitate the use of poles and steel to complete.
The steps to creating a custom riding or dressage arena are similar to the post and beam approach. We evaluate your needs, create and design a plan and then put a team our team of specialists together to complete the project.
Both construction techniques have their merits in creating a structure that is built correctly, professionally and specifically for you.
