Orton Companies designs custom barns and shop-houses for Rogers 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 Rogers 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.
City of Rogers, with tighter metro commercial and residential review than rural Sherburne

Rogers is one of the first Hennepin County cities we build in — a local post-frame crew can still out-serve a national dealer. I-94 makes the haul easy; the codes are just stricter than a Sherburne township lot.
A lot of Rogers calls are businesses that need a shop yesterday, or homeowners who want a building that does not look like it was ordered from a catalog. We can do both — they are not the same bid.
Rogers design work often has to satisfy a more metro planning eye: proportions, materials, and a clear story about use.
What Rogers sites usually need
Rogers sits on I-94 at the Hennepin edge of our home radius. Lots are a mix of remaining rural ground, industrial park parcels, and suburban residential. Metro codes, snow, and neighbor visibility all show up in the first conversation.

Minnesota work we do for Rogers owners
Finished buildings from the Big Lake crew — the same work we do for Rogers owners. When we complete a project there, it will sit here with the city and size.
Yes. We design living and shop space under one roof for Rogers owners, including layouts, elevations, and drawings a crew can build from.
Can you design a post-frame shop or barn from a Rogers lot?
Yes. Orton Companies draws custom post-frame shops and barns — doors, spans, and a Minnesota roof package sized to the parcel. We confirm what the lot can take before the drawings go final.
Do you design shop-houses near Rogers?
Yes. We plan shop-houses with a clear split between living and work, plus door packages and winter detailing for Twin Cities Metro.
Can I see the building in 3D before we build in Rogers?
Yes. 3D views help Rogers owners walk the massing, openings, and flow before construction starts.
Do you build commercial pole buildings in Rogers?
Yes. Rogers is one of the best commercial-fit cities in our primary radius — shops, storage, and light industrial shells along the I-94 corridor.
Is Rogers too far for a Big Lake crew?
No. Rogers is about 20 minutes from 19060 253rd Avenue. It is a regular part of our week.
How do Rogers lot rules affect a shop or barn?
City accessory rules and any association covenants decide what fits. We verify before we draw or bid a full-size barn.
If you are planning a custom barn, shop-house, or post-frame shop with a Rogers site, start with a conversation. Orton Companies designs in Minnesota for Twin Cities Metro lots — then builds what we draw.
