About Our Run In Sheds:

We start with a basic model and work with you to build the shelter that works best for your situation. You can customize your barn to include a tackroom, which allows you to keep your saddles, feed, and hay right where you need them. We can also add gates and divider walls to let you use your run-in shed as a stall, in case you need to keep your horse confined for some reason. Our Run-in sheds are designed and built to be fully portable, meaning that we build the barn at our shop, and deliver it to your site, fully assembled and ready to use. This system also allows you the opportunity to have your barn picked up and moved to a new location, whether it is 2 miles or 200 miles down the road.

Is It True That Deer Creek Barns or Run In Sheds Arrive Already Built and Ready To Use?
YES! This is a big difference between ourselves and many of our competitors! Our barns are built on pressure treated 6x6 skids, which are actually part of the framework. This allows us to build the barn at our shop, load it onto a trailer, and deliver it to your site fully assembled and ready to use. These barns can also then be relocated in the future as needed.
Is It True That The Barns and Run In Sheds Are Completely Portable and Do NOT Require A Concrete Foundation?
That is true! Our standard line of horse barns and sheds will be completely portable. The barns will have a 16" -42" overhang, and does not need to have any concrete foundation. We can build from an 8x8 up to a 12x48 horse barn in a one piece, portable unit.

Note: We also offer 6'-12' overhangs for an addition to any of our barns. Along with our Aisle barns, these shedrow barns with the larger overhangs will require concrete piers as a minimum foundation to set on.

But I Have a Small Property… Perhaps I Can’t Fit The Delivery Truck...

Delivering a portable barn on your property can have its challenges at times. Beings that we need a good amount of room to maneuver with our truck and trailer to set the barn, sometimes it is necessary for us to build the barn onsite. If you think it may be a tight fit to deliver a barn on your property, we will work with you to determine which option of delivery is best.

What If I Want The Larger Overhang For Protection From Sun, Wind and Rain?

When building a barn with a larger overhang, we use 6x6 posts in the front, laminated beams, hurricane ties, and anchors to attach the barn to the foundation. This allows you to have the peace of mind knowing that your horse will be living in a well built, solid stable.

What Do I Need To Do To Help With The Delivery?

Deer Creek Structures has its own fleet of delivery trucks, and will work with you place the barn where you need it. Most times, all you need for the site is a flat, level are on which to set the barn.

What materials and construction go into each barn?

Standard barns and sheds feature 1"x10" Cypress board and batten siding — cypress is naturally rot-resistant and hard enough to endure kicks from heavy hooves — topped with 30-year architectural shingles over 7/16 OSB roof decking. Run-in sheds include a 1"x8"x4'-high oak kickboard and a 7" OSB roof overhang as standard. Buyers can upgrade interiors with tongue-and-groove cypress, pine, or cedar, choose corrugated metal or wainscot ceiling panels, and add overhangs in 3½', 8', 10', or 12' depths along with vents, windows, cupolas, and weathervanes.

How does delivery and setup work?

Deer Creek delivers portable barns and sheds already built and ready to use, with free delivery included in the purchase price to locations within 200 miles of their Lott, Texas headquarters.

The company also offers on-site sealing and staining services, and many in-stock buildings can be delivered the same week or the following week.

Who are these shelters built for?
