Pole Sheds & Storage Buildings

Pole Shed Builders for St. Cloud, MN

A storage shed is the simplest post frame building and the easiest to size. Add up the length of what goes inside, add four feet on each side for walking room, and add the door height with the load on the trailer. That gives the footprint and clearance. A 14 foot door suits most RVs.

Open-sided sheds keep hay and equipment dry and let air move through. Fully enclosed sheds with a steel roof and walls keep boats and campers clean. Lake owners around Clearwater, Clear Lake and Maple Lake store pontoons and snowmobiles this way. A gravel floor is the usual choice.

Questions

Pole Sheds & Storage Buildings FAQs

How big should an RV shed be?

Add four feet to the RV length and two feet to the width, then choose a 14 foot door for most motorhomes. Taller coaches need more.

What drives pole shed price?

Footprint, wall height, door count and size, and whether the walls are open. Open sheds cost the least.

Does a storage shed need a permit?

Often. Size thresholds vary by city and township, and setbacks and shoreland limits apply near lakes.

Can I store hay in one?

Yes. Open sides allow airflow, and a raised gravel floor keeps the bales off wet ground.

How does snow affect the design?

The roof is engineered for the local ground snow load, and pitch can be set so snow slides away from the doors.
