At MQS Structures, we build post frame buildings in Morgantown every day, and we never stop learning. We want all our customers to be satisfied with their buildings and the building process. With that in mind, here are more pole barn building tips for you as you plan and design your next pole building in Morgantown.
Think About Resale Value
If you plan on using your new building for the next 50, 60, or 100 years, you may not be considering resale value. Nonetheless, a lot can happen in 20 or 30 years. Design a building you love but consider what someone else may want as well. This is particularly important regarding size, location, and the inclusion of utilities such as electricity and water.
Install the Right Doors
If you need large access doors into your barn, the two most common options are large sliding doors and overhead doors. Custom horse barn builders in Morgantown typically suggest sliding doors for horse and other livestock barns. We usually suggest overhead doors for vehicle storage and workshops. Whatever you choose, think through your selection carefully––the consequences of a poor choice may be worse than you think.
Consider Future Expansions
Like most other pole barn builders in Morgantown, we always suggest that our customers build with the future in mind. If you project significant growth over the next 10-15 years, build the barn you will need in ten years. Additions or expansions will be more expensive later than the cost of building big from the start. Nonetheless, if you don’t feel confident about the future of your business, locate your building in such a way that expansion will be easier later. You may even want to prepare your build site for the building you plan on constructing, plus the expansion you hope for in 10-15 years.
Ensure Your Barn Complies with Local Building Codes and Best Practices
If your barn is located out of the city and beyond the reach of local zoning boards, do your best to comply with best practices and regulations anyway. A future buyer or building inspector may recognize problems if you cut corners.
