Top 5 Advantages Metal Buildings offer over  Pole Barns:

- Concrete foundations designed to support and anchor Building properly.  There are many variables included in a foundation design: Soil conditions, frost line, up-lift, and bearing strength to name a few.  Your building is only as good as its foundation.

- Metal buildings are structurally engineered to withstand wind and snow loads for location specific building codes.  This may be one of the best attributes of a metal building.  Rest assured the strength and integrity of your structure is specifically designed for your zipcode.  

- Integrity of a Metal building will not be compromised by moisture, Termites, and other wood boring insects.  With a metal building there are no wood posts in contact with the ground or concrete that can get wet and rot away.  Did you know that concrete wicks water?  Termites need food and water, with a pole barn they have have both.  It's only a matter of time until wooden posts decay from moister and/or termites.  "If it can't dry it will die" 

- Metal buildings will not expand and contract during the humid and dry seasons of the year like a pole barn.  The wooden expansion and contraction, which is inevitable in pole barns, loosens fasteners and ultimately leads to leaks and structural decline.

- The ultimate long term structure.  There's no doubt that If you're looking for a legitimate structure intended to protect your valuable property, stand the test of time, and be the least maintenance free option, a Pre-Engineered Metal Building is the golden standard.
