Modern-day westerns have many of us romanticizing about the American West and what it takes to be a rancher. Popular series, such as Yellowstone, give a glorified and dramatized glimpse into the lives of a cowboy and the hard work of ranching.

Horse barns have evolved a great deal since the first-ever horse barn was built. It is said that the world’s oldest horse stables were discovered in Egypt in 1304 BC. The barn was 182,986 square feet and could house over 480 horses.

Horse barns have come a long way over the last few decades. At one point, horse barns were a simple wooden structure where the horses were kept safe at night. Nowadays, horse barns are unique stick-built or post frame structures that have a little bit of everything no matter what kind of rider you are.

Modern post frame construction is touted for its design flexibility. This building method offers a wide selection of exterior and interior finishes, roofing materials, and architectural details. You can achieve virtually any aesthetic your heart desires – steel, vinyl, and wood siding with a brick or stone façade. Any roof pitch can be utilized and covered with asphalt shingles or metal panels.

It can be challenging to envision a pole barn in your head and know what building size you need. Sure, it'd be helpful if our minds could calculate the specifications, but that’s one superpower we, unfortunately, weren’t given.
