I'm in the process of constructing a shelter for my new 5er. It is made of 2" galvanized metal pipe. The dimensions are 16'x40', the sides are 12' and the peak is 16'. It is a "drive-through shelter. The sides will be open except for the top 2' (down to the bottom horizontal pipes) I have provided a link for anyone who might be interested. The only thing I have left to do at this time is put the cover on it.

Nice looking setup. Did you purchase a package or configure it yourself?

It was a kit. It came with everything to complete the project except everyday tools. There even was a special tool provided to drive in the ground posts. I'll post a few more pictures after I get the cover installed and the 5er parked under it.

That looks like it will be very nice when completed. Would you mind sharing any information about the kit (manufacturer, model, web links, etc)? If that is against the forum rules could you send me a private message?

Thanks!

I don't believe it is against forum rules unless I have a commercial interest in the product, which I don't! The link to the specific building I purchased is:

http://www.farmtek.com/farm/supplies...er=1640RV10W10

Now that's a link!!!

From there you could also check out their other structures. I found this one to be best for me. I purchased it with 2' extensions to get 12' walls. It comes standard with 10' walls and 14' peak, still 16'x40' footprint. I didn't purchase the side walls, which would be an option. I may decide to do that later.
