Twin Cities Metro

Custom Barn Design in Lino Lakes, MN

Orton Companies designs custom barns and shop-houses for Lino Lakes and Twin Cities Metro in Minnesota. We walk the lot, draw the building you will actually use, and keep the same crew ready to stand it up.

Design in Lino Lakes starts with how you pull in, what you store, and what Minnesota snow will do to the roof. We turn that into layouts, elevations, and build-ready drawings — living space and shop under one roof when you want a shop-house, or a working barn when the lot is just for work. When you are ready to build, the drawings already belong to the people who will put them in the ground.

Why Lino Lakes owners start with a drawing

A clear drawing saves money in the field. Around Lino Lakes, we size openings, spans, and the envelope for how you will use the building — then the same Orton crew can take it from paper to a finished structure.
