Side Lofted Barn 10 x 12

Side Lofted Barn 10 x 12

A 10 x 12 Grey Side Lofted Barn with a darker grey roof is a versatile, high-capacity storage solution characterized by its barn-style gambrel roof and "side-entry" configuration. 

Visual and Structural Features

• Exterior Color Scheme: Typically finished in light to mid-tone shades like "Gauntlet Gray" or "Steely Gray," paired with a contrasting darker roof in "Charcoal Gray" or black.
• Roof Design: The darker grey roof is often constructed from 29-gauge charcoal metal or 25-year architectural shingles. The gambrel (barn) shape provides significant overhead clearance, reaching a peak height of approximately 11 feet.
• Side Layout: Unlike standard barns with doors on the narrow end, this model features double doors and usually two 2x3 windows located on the 12-foot side wall.
• Storage Capacity: The 120-square-foot footprint is expanded by built-in lofts at each end, typically offering about 960 cubic feet of total storage space. 

Specifications & Materials

• Siding: Most high-quality models use LP SmartSide engineered wood, which includes treatments to resist rot and termites.
• Foundation: Built on pressure-treated 4x6 skids and 2x6 floor joists to support heavy loads.
• Entry: A 48-inch single or 70-inch double door allows for easy movement of larger equipment like lawnmowers or ATVs
