Barns and Barn Style Sheds
Small barns and barn style sheds have traditional gambrel shaped roofs which provide more overhead loft space. Early farmers realized that in order to stack another bale of hay in the barn loft it was necessary to split the A-Frame rafters and modify the pitch. A loft door was added to access the loft area from the exterior. Today most of these doors are decorative but some barn shed models have working ones. View Pricing Now

It starts with Leonard's famous notched skid floor system (see below). The 2"x4" wall frame system is similar to house construction on 16" centers with top and bottom plate. The gambrel roof system uses metal plates to bind rafters into place with high pressure pneumatic press. The Mayberry features LP SmarSide panel siding. This material is simply the industry best and can be stained or painted to match your home.
The world of pre-assembled and portable storage sheds, the foundation is paramount.

Popular High Wall Barns
This model has been discontinued as a stock unit and replaced with the Mayberry series (see above). Our customers much prefer the Mayberry's LP SmartSide panel siding over the T1-11 which we used to offer. We may have a few of the T1-11 in stock and in some cases our factory will accept orders for these type units. All 10 wides feature two large 4' deep lofts (one on each end) and double 30" doors on the end or double 36" doors on the side. You can choose metal or shingle roof (no up charge). We also offer the siding in easy to paint Masonite or T1-11 for the stained look. You can design a barn in a range of sizes: 8, 10, 12, or even 14 wide and any length you want. See more on Interior and Exterior Options.
Popular Mini Barns
The Mini barn was offered in either T1-11 or Masonite siding. Today we are transitioning to the superior siding material, LP SmartSide. The Mini Barn is only available in a 8' wides and stocked in only an 8'x12' size. This unit is affordable and provides plenty of room for basic yard equipment, tools, or just general storage. The shorter side wall does not allow us to offer a loft in this model - see the Mayberry for Lofted Barns.
Russel G. from the Raleigh area recently had us build a barn in his backyard. Actually, this was the second barn we have built in his backyard. The first was to house some equipment for a business he operates called Smoked Out 'n Fried cattering www.smokedoutnfried.com. The second one (10x16 PENE barn) pictured above he got to store family furniture after his parents passed away. At first he considered building an addition to the house, but in the end, he felt a Leonard building with insulation and paneling might work just as well, cost far less, and be fairly easy to get done quickly. There are a lot of ways to solve storage challenges and we hope Leonard can continue to provide alternatives that make sense for our customers. Thank you, Russel for sharing your story.
