When you’re ready to start your pole barn journey, of course, one of the first questions you’ll ask is, “How much does a pole barn cost?”

As you take a Sunday drive in the country, you may wonder why farms have so many pole barns on their property or if each barn serves a designated purpose. Maybe some pole barns house tractor implements, while others might be used for the maintenance of farm equipment. You may also wonder what features post-frame buildings can have and the color combinations you can have when building an agricultural pole building. In this article, we will explain the top three common agricultural pole barn building uses.

The beauty of post-frame buildings is that they are diverse and can be purpose-built for many different needs.

When most people think about a pole barn, they think of a rectangle with two cupolas (small squares on the roof, typically with a weather vane). This classic American look has been around for centuries, but do you need a cupola on your post-frame building?

One of the fun parts of designing a post-frame building is deciding which interior and exterior features you want to incorporate.

You’ve designed your dream post-frame building, talked to your Project Sales Consultant, and signed a building contract. Then you think, “Hey, let's add a window.” But unfortunately, as you go through the building process, changes, as simple as a window, can become costly and delay your project timeline.
