What People Use the Side Lofted Barn For

Everyday Storage

A versatile home for mowers, tools, bikes, seasonal décor, and everything else that clutters the garage — organized, dry, and easy to reach.

Workshop or Hobby Room

Line the walls with a workbench and shelving for a dedicated space to build, repair, and create without giving up your garage.

Seasonal & Overhead Storage

Stow holiday decorations, totes, and off-season gear up and out of the way, keeping the floor clear for what you use daily.

Backyard Retreat

Finish the interior and it becomes a getaway in your own backyard — an office, studio, or quiet escape steps from your door.

Built to Last

Our buildings feature 2×4 wall studs set 16" on center, engineered roof trusses, and LP SmartSide® siding rated to withstand impact, moisture, and extreme temperature swings. Each building is engineered to meet local wind and snow load requirements.
