A combine left under a tarp loses thousands of dollars a year to UV damage, rodent nests, and rust. A Triton equipment storage barn protects six- and seven-figure rolling stock for a fraction of what one major repair would cost. Drive-through bays, oversized doors, and clear-span widths up to 80' mean you can pull anything you own straight in without a 12-point turn.
Replace one set of combine tires that cracked from sun exposure: ~$8,000. Replace one cab harness chewed by mice: ~$2,500. Replace one auger paint job: ~$4,000. A modest equipment barn pays for itself the first time it prevents one of those line items.
And come trade-in or auction time, equipment that's been stored under cover its whole life carries a documented premium.
We talk to your operator before we design. Combine width, header trailer length, fuel tank placement, fertilizer cart turn radius — all of it shapes the door, eave, and bay layout.
Galvanized rigid frames stand up to fertilizer dust and ammonia better than painted-only steel. Our pre-engineered bracing carries snow loads up to 60+ psf, and the entire shell is engineered to the wind zone of your county.
Add up the square footage of every piece of equipment, multiply by 1.5 to allow walk-around space, and round up to the nearest 10'. We'll refine from there.
Yes — many ag clients use compacted gravel inside and pour concrete only at the doors and the shop bay. We anchor to either.
In most jurisdictions, yes — agricultural-use buildings on working farms qualify for simplified permits and reduced property tax assessments.
Yes — order with the appropriate panel and purlin spacing if you plan to add insulation, and an insulation crew can blow or batt the building any time.
Most equipment barns are erected within 8 – 12 weeks of contract, weather and permits permitting.
