When it comes to ensuring your pole barn has the fresh air it needs, you have a few options with Lumber One.
Ventilation doesn’t mean you need to install a full HVAC system, unless your application calls for it. Exhaust fans can be useful if you’re looking for a mechanical solutions. If you want something more stylish, a cupola can bring a flair to the building while providing for ventilation needs. You might also choose a gable or ridge vent.

Depending on your needs, you may want to consider a lean-to. A lean-to is an additional space to store equipment or firewood to the side of your pole barn, open to the elements from at least two if not three sides.
A lean-to can also be used to cover a patio, if you need a place for your or your employees to relax during off time, or need an outdoor place to work.

For roofing and siding, you have a lot of different options – probably as many as with any home you’ve built.
Most people typically go with steel siding and roofing, as these are long-lasting and extremely durable. You may decide instead to go with a type of wood siding and roofing, depending on your budget and preferred style.

Some townships and cities may have zoning restrictions on how wide or tall you can build a pole barn. Be sure to look up your local zoning and building codes before you attempt to build your own pole barn, or we may already know from experience.
