Thanks,
Well the door man came out and talked me into regular garage doors.. Basically he said it would be 2 or 3 thousand to get the quality of roll up door that would equal the strength and security of a traditional door. Rather than stick to my guns, I deferred to the expert. We will see..

I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge about National Barn Company. I am planning on putting up a building/garage/shop. I personally think I like wood framed buildings better, for various reasons, but I live in tornado alley so I also like the wind shedding ability of a quonset hut type of design. Anyway I was wondering if anybody has opinion on this company, Morton, or any other recommendations and/or opinions on which companies to use or steer clear of. Thanks
Chris

I don't know about steel buildings but you may consider building a Terra-Dome super structure. It is tornado proof and energy efficient. I will be building one very soon. Visit their website Earth Sheltered Buildings I have some friends in Winchester Oklahoma that are working on finishing their earth sheltered home. Visit their website at Stockton Earth Home Project | An earth home is no more a cave, than a penthouse is an attic.

Good luck

Thanks for the pictures. The guy who told me to look into USA Barns is a guy who knows what he is talking about, so I expected the quality/price combination to be very fair. I think your experience has pretty much finalized me on it. It looks really nice.

I am guessing from the terrain in your pictures that you are either on Wellston/Arcadia/Chandler side of OKC, or on the Bridgecreek/Chickasha side. I kind of miss that red dirt.

East of Guthrie. Grew up in Edmond, but it is getting way too big.
I don't think you will miss that red dirt all that much after a rain. I had 10lbs on each boot after 5 steps this morning.

Thought I would post a thumbs up to Mark at USA Barns and second some of the comments here...I just got a 30x50x12 pole barn built by them with a 15 ft lean to...it took just a couple of days and the guys rocked...it looks really good and I defintely could not have done better job on my own...

My metal building is a Miracle Truss framed bldg, about 15 years old. I used wooden girts and perlins for easier framing and build out. However I got my roll up and walk doors and additional trim from Mueller. More recently I got standing seam white metal, CF profile, for the carport and for the reframed house roof. I too recommend Mueller for the way they treat their customers.

My vote American Made Steel Buildings. Plants across the country cannot be undersold

Cleary Buildings are good value for the price. A lot of the farmers in my area have had them build their barns and other out buildings and have been very satisfied with the quality and good treatment by the company. You may want to check them out. Link below.
