Beautiful Colored Barns in Colorado

What color is your favorite barn? What strikes you? Is it the style of the barn or the color of the barn? Architects and designers at Fire Construction, Inc. will show you how to achieve enduring, and beautifully colored barns in Colorado.

Along a country road sits a gorgeous green barn with white trim. It boasts a gable roof and ranch-style doors contrasting with the mountainside behind. The property inspires fairytale dreams from passersby, although the ranch hands must work hard to keep it so well-maintained. Ask us about options for such attractive barns with low maintenance.

How to Select Barn Protective Coatings

Our metal barns come with a choice of two protective substrate coating options. The coating inhibits rust and corrosion. They are added during the manufacturing process, before the panels are painted.

Our engineering teams guide your project through the coatings selection. Galvalume coatings consist of aluminum and zinc. Galvalume is offered on 26gauge and 28gauge Uni-Rib steel panels and the Eclipse Roof System. Chemists project galvalume coatings to significantly outperform galvanized coatings–except in livestock settings.

Livestock operations are best off using galvanized coatings and the 29gauge Uni-Rib steel panel. This Uni-Rib steel panel is coated with corrosion protection on both sides of the panel. Galvanized coatings protect against rust and corrosion using pure zinc. This coating is measured in ounces of zinc per square foot. Higher numbers are more protective. barns in Colorado

How to Select Paint Systems

Uni-Rib steel panels manufactured by Lester Buildings for Sapphire Construction are treated with Valspar paint. Valspar products come with a proven track record of quality, integrity, and dependability. They are created to inhibit peeling, checking, cracking, and resist chalk-like conditions that are caused by weather breaking down the resin in the paint.

This leading paint manufacturer has a reputation for innovative coatings that are not only durable but aesthetically pleasing. Most of the colors also meet the standards for reflectivity required for the “Cool Roof” Energy Star status. Valspar paints are warrantied.

Valspar Color Choices

Unlimited color choices are offered by Valspar. The company also produces popular stock colors, including:

  • All-Star Weather XL ® Silicone Modified Polyester (SMP): This product offers reliable durability at good value. It is standard product used on exterior panels and comes in 17 colors.
  • Valspar Floor upon ® Polyvinyl Ledeen Fluoride (PVDF): this is a premium product that protects against fading. Clients requesting dark-colored roofs are referred to this product. It is available in 20 colors.
