Modular Horse Barns Article

Modular Horse Barns Article, by MD Barnmaster. The construction market in general has been “on fire” for the past few years. 2020 and 2021 saw increases in residential values that were 20%+ back to back! This is unprecedented in my lifetime (I’m a Gen X’er, 53 years old and adding to it!), and that kind of run-up has consequences that ripple throughout the construction industry, accelerating the use of pre-fabricated products. Modular horse barns can certainly be considered as a part of this pre-engineered, pre-fabricated, and ready-to-build revolution in building construction.

Modular horse barns produced by MD Barnmaster allow our customers to benefit from the years of design and development that have taken place since we first opened our doors in 1975. By the time your modular horse barn has arrived onsite, ready to be assembled by professionals or the DIY owner, you can rest assured that offering 80 barn kit floor plans has afforded us the opportunity to refine all of our processes. Being able to accurately predict your costs upfront is a huge advantage over traditional “build on-site” construction techniques. Your ability to still progress at a steady pace, with much less reliance upon favorable weather to meet your deadlines is another definite advantage of using a modular horse barn from MDBarnmaster. This all rolls up to the delivery of YOUR modular horse barn, the final result of a collaboration that will likely be enjoyed for generations to come!

Using our 4-stall modular horse barn as an example, the 24’ X 36’ building will utilize 26 gauge roof and wall panels, with 14 gauge galvanized steel on structural parts, materials that stand up to all you know Mother Nature is likely to throw at you and your heirs, for years to come. Our certified leak-free roof panels ensure a dry housing environment for the horses that are clearly a priority in your life. Those same horses will also appreciate the zero fire spread rating on all laminated steel wall panels. The 40-year paint system on all exterior walls, roof, trim, and fascia will keep your modular horse barn looking its best, with no regular maintenance necessary to keep it looking that way.

You can also add prefabricated modular building kits to match.

Prefabricated Modular Barn Benefits

Pre-engineered, prefabricated modular barn benefits by MD Barnmaster. Modular barns have significant benefits over traditional wood construction buildings and barns. Besides the structural integrity advantages, MDB’s modular components are much safer than wood-based products. Just those two benefits alone, structural integrity and fire retarding material, amount to a very compelling reason to choose MDB modular barns. But, there are other reasons pre-fabricated modular horse barns outperform traditional barns.

Comparing the benefits of MDB Modular Barns vs Conventional Barns

Construction savings:
Streamlined construction process saves the buyer a significant amount of time, material waste, and field labor. MBD has been perfecting modular barn technology since 1975. MDB designs, engineers, fabricates and assembles each barn section prior to shipping to the prefab barn kit to the build site ready for final assembly. Quality control management throughout the construction process significantly reduces on-site activity, disturbance of the environment, theft, and inherently speeds up the build time to as little as 8 weeks. (Final on-site assembly can either be completed by the buyer or by an MDB professional building contractor.)

Quality Workmanship:
MDB manufactures all the components of the modular barn in a controlled environment at their Ontario California factory. High quality materials, stringent manufacturing process management and quality control inspection protocols ensure unsurpassed quality workmanship every step of the way.

Modular Versatility:
If you can dream it… we can build it. Versatile modular engineering from MDB can deliver anything from a shedrow barn for a small property, a 100-stall breezeway or back to back barn for a professional equine or veterinary facility, or a state-of-the-art, elaborate, custom dream barn complete with living quarters. MDB can design your barn to your specifications and incorporate colors/materials to match existing property structures or lifestyle. Plus, with endless modular possibilities, we can pre-engineer your modular barn to meet your personal or professional needs today, which you can easily expand for tomorrow’s needs.

Structural Integrity:
Built to stand the test of time. MDB’s laminated wall panels are integrated into the proprietary wall channels and welded to form each wall panel section required for each barn plan. MDB’s exclusive certified roof panels are leak-free. The frame of the barn kits is fabricated from 14-gauge galvanized steel that will last a lifetime. When the entire MDB barn is assembled it creates a structural integrity that outperforms the average conventional barn in handling heavy snow loads, high winds and even jarring earthquakes.

Safety – Health & Welfare:
Modular barn benefits include significant safety features which continues to be one of our the greatest assets in choosing a modular barn over conventional structure. As the innovator in modular barn technology since 1975, MDB set the bar for safety features.

Proprietary wall panels come with a lifetime kick-proof and chew-proof warranties.
Lifetime kick-proof warrantied wall panels are designed to flex and absorb kicking shock that prevents kick through, injury and wall damage.
Lifetime chew-proof warrantied all panels are chew proof so horses cannot digest wood/splinters that can cause health issues such as colic.
MDB also eliminates the hazards of decaying, bacteria harboring wood and dangerous exposed rusty nails.
Zero% fire spread rating means you enjoy peace-of-mind knowing your horses or livestock have the best safety protection against a hay fire or other fire spreading in the barn.

Maintenance savings:
MDB modular barns are built to withstand the test of time. They’re insect and weather resistant. They require minimal maintenance (spray wash for easy sanitizing). Standard modular barn materials include a 40 year outside wall and roof paint system. Compare that to conventional wood structures that decay over time and require frequent maintenance to prolong their lifespan. Traditional barns can expect ongoing expense of painting or sealing, roofing, wall and stall repair. Decaying wood barns are a health hazard to horses and livestock. They attract insects, harbor disease and loose boards can expose hazardous nails.

Warranty:
We’re as serious about barns as you are about horses. MDB sets the standard for the best warranties on all their modular barns, buildings, equestrian facilities and other structures. MDB includes a lifetime kick-proof and chew-proof warranty on wall panels with a zero % fire spread rating. Standard outside roof and walls come with a 40-year paint system.
