Pole Barn Must Have's

[whistlepig]

I agree with doors on both ends for summer air flow. A metal building can get pretty hot. My first metal barn didn't have any insulation under the roof. On the second metal building I had them put bubble wrap between the metal roof and the top of the trusses. Made a big difference in the summer and didn't cost that much.

Thank you. Doors are wide enough for me. Got to pay attention when going in and out. The ROPS just barely clear the top. The guy with the ceiling fan idea, that is a great idea. I'm going to do that this summer. Lots of good ideas here.

Make a section of the roof for a overhead crane,
