Blair’s Durable Cold Storage Building for Farm Equipment

A Cold Storage Building Providing Strength, Durability & Years of Protection For Sensitive Equipment

Designed For You

Building Customizations

For Blair, farm operations demand reliability—from equipment to the buildings that protect it. His new 60′ x 152′ x 20′ post frame cold storage building was designed with one goal in mind: to provide secure, long-lasting protection for machinery, no matter the season.

Upgraded Foundation

Grade Guard Sleeves for Long-Lasting Protection

Blair’s cold storage building is equipped with a Grade Guard foundation system, designed to protect his posts from moisture and organics at ground level—guarding against rot and decay.

This simple yet effective solution extends the life of the building, giving Blair confidence that his investment will stand strong for decades and provide lasting value by protecting his farm equipment and implements.

 

Features

30"

Grade Guard sleeves are 30″ tall. Designed to provide protection where posts are most vulnerable, they cover 6″ above grade to 18″ below.

Engineered Shell

Built Strong for Agricultural Demands

Blair’s post frame cold storage building is constructed with 4-ply laminated posts and engineered trusses spaced every 4 feet, providing exceptional strength to support the large structure.

This close spacing reinforces the building to withstand Alberta’s strong winds and heavy snow loads, giving peace of mind through severe storms.

Each truss is securely anchored to its supporting posts with structural lag screws, creating a strong, resilient connection that ensures the building remains sturdy for decades of farm work.

 

Features

4'

Each pair of adjacent engineered posts supports a single truss, meaning both posts and trusses are spaced at just 4′ on centre. This creates a strong, robust system that efficiently transfers loads to the ground.

Spacious Cold Storage

Room to Protect and Organize Farm Equipment

Blair’s spacious cold storage building was designed to accommodate his full fleet of weather-sensitive equipment, with ample room to maneuver and access each piece with ease.

By storing everything indoors, Blair safeguards his investment from harsh weather conditions—reducing costly repairs, preventing premature wear, and extending the lifespan of his equipment—saving him money year after year.

 

Features

60' x 152' x 20'

Blair can store machinery, tools, and supplies securely year-round, protected from the elements and ready for daily use in his large cold storage building.

Low-Maintenance Metal Exterior

High-Quality Metal Resists Damage & Prevents Repairs

The high-quality 26-gauge metal cladding on Blair’s cold storage building is made from ultra-high-tensile steel with a 3/4″ rib profile, delivering exceptional impact resistance and a more rigid structure—ideal for withstanding hail and harsh prairie weather.

The durable steel exterior resists rust, fading, and denting, reducing upkeep and keeping the building looking sharp year after year — a straightforward, low-maintenance solution built for the long haul.

 

Features

Class 4

The durable metal cladding carries a Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—providing exceptional protection against hail and debris.
