Post-Frame Buildings
Knepp Buildings constructs durable post-frame structures engineered for residential, commercial, and agricultural use. Our buildings feature 4x6 or 6x6 laminated posts, 2x4 or 2x6 wall girts spaced at 24-inch centers, and double #1 Grade Southern Yellow Pine trusses. Engineered for 24-inch (shingled) or 48-inch (steel) truss spacing, these structures withstand heavy snow loads while maintaining aesthetic appeal with 12-inch overhangs. Customers benefit from customizable designs, lifetime steel warranties, and efficient installation by experienced crews.
Garage Construction
We build high-strength garages using post-frame methods that combine structural integrity with cost efficiency. Our garages feature 5/8-inch roof sheathing for shingled roofs or 2x4 purlins for steel roofs, ensuring durability against weather extremes. Steel siding and roofing with 40-year warranties protect against corrosion, while screw-fastened components prevent loosening over time. Clients receive personalized layouts, multiple size options, and expert guidance on material choices to match their property's architectural style and functional requirements.
Custom Workshops
Knepp Buildings creates tailored workshop spaces designed for hobbyists, craftsmen, and professionals. Our workshops incorporate reinforced flooring options, electrical-ready framing, and flexible interior layouts. Standard features include 24-inch wall girt spacing for added strength, Everlast Roofing steel for longevity, and customizable door/header configurations. Clients receive detailed consultations to optimize storage solutions, workspace flow, and equipment integration while maintaining structural compliance with local building codes.
Agricultural Barns
Our agricultural buildings provide robust storage and housing solutions for farms and ranches. Constructed with 18-24 inch diameter concrete footers and laminated posts, these structures withstand heavy use and environmental stress. Features include gable end posts extending to truss tops for stability, 2x6 wall girts for equipment storage, and engineered roof systems capable of supporting heavy snow loads. Farmers appreciate the rapid installation process, pest-resistant materials, and adaptability for livestock, machinery, or crop storage.
Storage Facilities
Knepp Buildings delivers secure, scalable storage solutions for personal and commercial needs. Our facilities feature heavy-duty truss systems spaced at 48-inch intervals for steel roofs, 2x6 wall framing for enhanced durability, and customizable door configurations for large item access. Optional concrete flooring and insulation packages allow year-round usability, while screw-secured steel exteriors prevent tampering. Clients benefit from code-compliant designs, expedited construction timelines, and cost-effective alternatives to traditional masonry storage buildings.
