The Solution Section
What is Designer Metals, and who runs the company?

Designer Metals is a metal siding product line that offers the beauty, look, and feel of wood with the strength and ease-of-maintenance of steel. Other products on the market force customers to choose between aesthetics and longevity — Designer Metals provides both. The company is run by dedicated Amish families who understand the needs of horse owners and have decades of barn-building expertise.

Why choose steel that looks like wood instead of real wood?

Wood barns are beautiful, but they suffer from weather, sun, insects, and horses that like to chew. Real wood requires repeated painting and carries the worry of lightning and fire. Designer Metals captures the authentic look and feel of real wood while maintaining the strength and durability of steel — including realistic wood colors that give the barn the true beauty of wood without the upkeep.
