Two-Story Pole Barn in Dickerson, MD

Horse Barn

When our customer needed a cost-effective design for their stable, we knew we could take an agricultural engineering approach to ensure their string had a space with proper ventilation and flooring. We also knew how to give it that rustic feel that our client requested. We designed and created a 2-story pole barn with a Gambrel style roof. It measures 40′ wide x 60′ long. The first floor has a 12′ ceiling, with the second floor ceiling reached 14′ at its highest point.

This 2-story pole barn features:

• Five 12’x12′ horse stalls
• Enclosed 36″-wide stairway to second floor
• Standing-seam metal roof with vapor barrier and insulation
• 12’x10′ doorway at each gable end
• 8×8 loft door on second floor with functional pulley hoist
• 22-gauge corrugated metal siding
• 24x60x10 open front shed

This thoughtfully designed and functional 2 story pole barn helped the equestrians because:

• Horses kept indoors are often healthier than those that live outdoors
• Separate spaces for wash bays, tack-room and clubhouse keep dust and debris to a minimum
• Enclosing the stairwell keeps feed, bedding and dusty materials from wafting to second floor
• Pulleys make loading and unloading a breeze
• Vapor barrier and proper insulation keeps horses safe from the elements
• Siding designed to naturally rust on the surface will create a rustic natural look that ages well
