Agricultural Building Project:
Dairy Stall Building | Custom Post-Frame Cattle Barn
Allenton, Wisconsin
Project Overview:
Built in Allenton, Wisconsin, this traditional post-frame dairy barn reflects the practical craftsmanship that has defined Walters Buildings for generations. Designed for everyday reliability, it provides an efficient, comfortable space for dairy cattle while standing strong through more than two decades of Wisconsin winters.
Large sliding doors and open sidewalls allow generous airflow, while a vented ridge cap releases heat and humidity — a natural ventilation system that supports herd health and keeps the interior fresh year-round. Abundant daylight filters through the open design, reducing energy use and creating a bright, inviting environment for both cattle and caretakers.
Custom Features:
- Natural Ventilation: Open sides and a vented ridge cap promote healthy air circulation for livestock comfort.
- Ease of Access: Multiple sliding doors provide flexible entry points for feed, equipment, and livestock flow.
- Durable Construction: Post-frame design engineered for long-term strength and stability.
- Low-Maintenance Materials: 28-gauge G-90 galvanized steel panels, and #1 grade lumber ensure lasting performance.
- Bright Interior: Daylight-friendly layout reduces reliance on artificial lighting.
- Proven Longevity: Built in 2000 and still performing reliably more than two decades later.
