Originally developed in the 1930's, pole barns are extremely versatile structures with all the strength and reliability of traditional frame construction, but with fewer materials and less labor. Pole barns, also called post-frame or pole buildings, are remarkably sturdy and perfect for a wide variety of applications. Whether you're looking for shelter for an RV or even considering building a small home, a pole barn kit from Dixieland Metals of Alabama, metal roofing and siding suppliers based in Dothan, AL, may be the solution you've been looking for. Drawing on their years of experience, these specialists have some tips for selecting the right building for your needs.

• One of the primary advantages of pole barns is affordability, so you may actually be able to afford a larger construction. However, keeping your actual needs in mind will help ensure that you have a building that's still the right size in ten years.
• Modern pole barns are available in a wide range of styles with a great variety of architectural features. If your building is going to be in a visible location, choose a style that will complement your house and add to your property value.
