Plans, plans, plans….
As one might imagine, with about two hundred new clients contacting us every day, we have some conversations amongst ourselves which are frankly at the least – interesting.
I listened in on a discussion between Hansen Pole Buildings’ Designer Matt and Managing Partner Eric recently.
Matt, “I have a lead that the guy is asking for plans only. I assume we don’t do anything like this? I guess he bought a building from someone else and it had no plans.”
Eric, “Correct we do not sell plans only. Even worse that he bought something without plans….aka a lumber pile.”
I’ve spoken with thousands of clients about their pole building kit packages in the last decade alone. I consider most of them to be smarter than the average bear (yes, I confess to having watched Hanna-Barbera’s iconic cartoon character Yogi Bear). Which leaves me both perplexed and wondering…..
How in the world would someone end up owning a “lumber pile”?
As the greater majority of my adult life has been devoted to providing pole building kit packages to clients, the two keys to success (from a provider standpoint) are furnishing great plans as well as explicit step-by-step instructions. Without these two keys, the potential for a lumber pile becoming an actual building (at least as envisioned by the person who bought the lumber pile) would be pretty well exactly zero.
Here is my take on buying just pole building plans on the ‘net: https://www.hansenpolebuildings.com/blog/2011/08/buy-pole-barn-plans/
Shopping for a pole building kit package? Then please do yourself a huge favor – make sure any potential providers are capable of producing and providing for you building plans which are both Code conforming and exactly match what is being built. Every last board on the building should be shown.
And, while you are at it, see if they will provide a copy of the instructions for assembly. Even if one has to pay for the instructions in advance, it is a good investment.
Poor plans equals poor planning, and poor planning makes for unhappy results.

As you might not be aware, we are not a free plans service. One of our Building Designers will be reaching out to you shortly, or dial 1.866.200.9657 for immediate service.
If you have the space available, you may want to also consider 36′ x 48′ as it will be far more efficient in materials usage.
