When it comes to housing animals and livestock, pole barns are often the go-to construction option. These versatile structures offer numerous advantages over traditional barns, making them a preferred choice for farmers and animal enthusiasts living and working in Panama City and the surrounding areas.

Pole barns provide animals with a safe and comfortable environment while offering you flexibility, durability and cost-effectiveness. By opting for a pole barn, you can build affordable and functional housing for your animals while ensuring their welfare and protection from Florida’s unpredictable weather conditions.

Bestway Portable Buildings Inc. constructs reliable and customizable pole barns that offer a wide range of advantages that make them an ideal choice for housing large animals and livestock such as horses, cows, goats, sheep and pigs.

Ample Space and Ventilation

Pole barns give animals an abundant amount of room to freely move around and engage in natural behaviors — leading to happier and healthier animals. Livestock (such as horses or cattle) benefit greatly from movement because it encourages muscle development, joint health and overall physical fitness.

The open layout of a pole barn also promotes proper ventilation and reduces the risk of respiratory issues that may arise from cramped conditions. Adequate airflow helps control humidity levels, preventing the buildup of moisture that can harbor bacteria, molds and other pathogens that can be harmful to an animal’s health.

Flexibility in Design

Pole barns can be easily customized and tailored to suit your specific animal housing requirements. They can be constructed in various sizes and layouts, allowing you the opportunity to adapt the structure to your unique needs.

Additional features such as partition walls, stalls and feeding areas can be incorporated into the design to optimize the pole barn's internal layout for your functional requirements.

Protection from Elements

Our region of Florida is unfortunately no stranger to strong winds, hurricanes and tropical storms. Pole barns provide excellent protection against adverse weather conditions such as extreme wind, rain and heat. Our pole barns are constructed using robust materials and innovative building techniques to withstand extreme weather events.

The sturdy construction and solid foundation help ensure that animals remain safe and secure in the comfort of their barn — minimizing their exposure to the elements and any associated health risks (i.e., pests, sunburns, skin damage, etc.).

Enhanced Natural Lighting

Pole barns can be designed with large windows, skylights or translucent roofing panels to maximize natural light inside the structure.

Ample natural lighting offers multiple benefits, including improved animal welfare, reduced electricity costs and decreased dependence on artificial lighting.

Cost-Effectiveness

Constructing a pole barn is generally more affordable than traditional barns, primarily due to the reduced labor and material costs involved. Pole barns rely on posts or poles driven into the ground to provide structural support. These require less foundation work and fewer building materials compared to traditional barns with full foundations and complex framing.

The versatility and adaptability of pole barns also contribute to their cost-effectiveness. If you require additional space for more animals, storage or other purposes, you can extend or modify your existing pole barn without the need for extensive renovations or constructing an entirely new building.

This adaptability eliminates the cost and inconvenience of tearing down existing structures or investing in new ones — providing you with a more economical solution for animal and livestock shelters.

Easy Maintenance

Compared to traditional barns, pole barns are relatively easy to maintain. The absence of interior support columns and the use of durable materials can help simplify cleaning (i.e., manure removal) and daily maintenance tasks.

In most cases, the simple construction techniques employed to build pole barns can also make repairing or replacing damaged parts straightforward and inexpensive.
