Enjoy the timeless elegance of an oak-front barn
Oak-front barns are absolutely spectacular, offering you an aesthetic enhancement for your property as well as improving your way of life on a day-to-day basis. An oak-front barn is like a cross between a carport and a garage, with one main difference: it looks much better than either. The solid oak frontage is unrivalled in appearance, and there are plenty of opportunities to personalise your oak-front barn, meaning it can blend seamlessly in with your driveway, home and outdoor space. Just imagine having a warm, sheltered place to keep your car, and all the time you will save when you don’t have to de-ice your windscreen on a cold, frosty morning.
There are many features of an oak front barn you can personalise, including:
- Frontage and appearance
- Roofs – choose slate or grey tiles amongst others
- Enclosed and open bays
- Eaves (choose open eaves for a rustic look)
- Hinges and ironmongery

Oak-front barns:
the complete package
When you want an oak-front barn, we can take care of everything in house. Many other oak-front barn suppliers will not include roofs in the construction as this is a specialist part of the process. We have our own roofing contractor who will be able to work with any designs you want, from hipped roofs and clocktowers to gable-to-gable, clay-tiled roofs. We will design every aspect of your barn for you, working closely with you and getting design approval before moving ahead with the process.
