The exterior appearance of your pole building is as important as the quality of your garage. Siding is not only for aesthetic purposes but if installed properly can add structural integrity. There are many siding options available in a variety of products to create a custom look. Typically steel siding is used on most pole buildings, but you can match your existing home or garage/shop with products such as vinyl, concrete, or LP siding. You can even dress up the look of your structure by adding rock, shake, wainscoting, or color bands. Your professional Solid Structures designer can discuss options with you to create your completely custom building.

Wainscoting

Dress up the look of your building with the addition of wainscoting. Use coordinating colors to match your home or create a custom look.

Color Band

A color band is an easy way to add an accent color to your building. Match it to your trim color and you have a sophisticated look.

Light Strip

A light strip is an easy way to add natural light to your space. You can add it to one or both sides of your building.

Stone

Natural stone is another way to create an upscale custom look for your building. Use stone to match your home or to add an accent to your building.

Shutters

Accent your windows with the addition of shutters. There are many color options available for you to choose from.

Copulas

A great way to break up a long roofline is with the addition of a copula. They also provide a way for heat to escape your building.

Front Eave

Dress up the front of your building with the addition of a front eave. They also provide some coverage for the front of your building from the elements.

Side Eave

Side eaves are another way to dress up the look of your building. Add them alone or with a front eave.

Dog Eared

An easy way to change the look of a square roll-up door is with the addition of dog eared corners.

Door Window Panels

Window panels are a great way to dress up any door. They also have the added benefit of allowing more natural light into your building.

Bi-Fold Doors

Every building is used differently and there is an array of doors available to suit any need including bi-fold doors.

Horse Stall Doors

No riding arena is complete without custom horse stall doors. We can custom order them or build them onsite to suit any need.

Open Lean-to

If you need additional storage a lean-to is a practical solution. You can include one in your new building or add one to an existing building.

Standard Girt

This is the most common way to frame in your pole building. Use this method for a standard, storage pole building.

Commercial Girt

Bathrooms

Another thing to consider when building your shop is the addition of a bathroom. The cost is minimal and the convenience is well worth it.
