Board & Batten Steel Siding
Board & Batten siding has seen a resurgence in residential and agricultural design in recent years, and rightfully so as many building and builders crave classical aesthetics of rural farmhouse design. A challenge, though, is wooden board & batten is still susceptible to rot, insect damage, cracking, and various other visual and functional problems.
Steel Board & Batten solves all these issues. This exceptionally durable siding system is set to redefine exterior appeal of residential and light commercial structures. Residential contractors and custom home builders, homeowners, commercial building owners, and architects and designers can now utilize steel’s strength and durability while imparting a welcoming and enduring character and delivering lasting value in fifteen painted and three wood grain finishes.
“The Central States Board & Batten product is beautiful, easy to install, and is something we are excited to offer to our clients,” said Jonathan Bucher, VP at Stoneburner Inc. “We sell a good amount of wood board and batten, but have been looking for years for a more durable, maintenance-free option. This product exceeds our expectations! Our initial installations look great and will last a lifetime.”
Steel board and batten is a cost-effective siding solution with superior durability over comparable systems as it brings a lifetime warranty and classic aesthetic to residential and commercial structures. A rising trend in residential design, leaning towards modern farmhouse or industrial chic aesthetics, has made this profile increasingly attractive to individuals who may not have previously considered metal siding or those whose communities might have restricted use of metal siding previously.
“Our customers have expressed a desire for a product that emulates the look of traditional exterior finishes with the added benefits of steel, and we are excited to meet that demand with excellence,” stated Tim Ruger, President of Central States Manufacturing. “As a 100% employee-owned company, we are dedicated to our customers and believe this product will introduce fresh possibilities for the advantages of steel for more building types in more communities.”
Central States Board & Batten siding is a superior option to other market products including engineered wood, fiber cement, and vinyl. These traditional materials have various downsides including mold, rot, sagging, limited flexibility, inferior weather resistance, and environmental concerns.
Metal board and batten eliminates needs for painting or repainting throughout its lifespan. As a most environmentally-friendly building material, steel is 100% recyclable, and dissipates heat, contributing to cooler interiors. Central States Board & Batten stands out for homeowners and designers alike, offering custom lengths up to 30’. Crafted from 26-gauge steel, one of the heaviest gauges available, it combines durability with field workability. An exclusive lifetime paint warranty ensures this cost-effective siding choice retains its aesthetic appeal for years.
