Horse Lean-To Shelters
More Shade. More Convenience.
Give your animals added protection—and yourself everyday convenience—with our horse lean-to shelters. Designed with an extended roof overhang supported by posts, this creates a covered area that offers shade, dry ground, and extra workspace to groom or tack up without having to go inside. It also protects your stall doors!
A lean-to can be added to other types of barns, like a run-in or shed row, creating even more usable space for your setup. At Penn Dutch Structures, we offer in-stock and custom-made horse shelters, available for delivery in Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland. Design your own or see what’s available now.
Features of Lean-To Barns
These barns and their overhangs provide versatile shelter and improve your daily routines. Each is built with expert Amish craftsmanship and the following features:
- Steel Powder Coated Grills
- Oak Post & Beam Style Framing
- 6″x6″ Treated Perimeter with Tow Hooks
- 4′ High Oak Kickboards
- 6-Lite 28″x24″ Barn Sash Windows
- 4′ Heavy Duty Dutch Doors
- Lean-To Overhang (8′, 10′, 12′)
How to Prepare Your Site For A Lean-To
These shelters require level concrete footers to stop the structure from shifting. Upon purchase, we will share a footer placement diagram for your barn’s specific dimensions to simplify your site prep. Once the footers are installed, the surrounding area can be filled with concrete or stone before your barn is delivered and installed.

Materials
Our horse barns are made with treated white pine for rot resistance and better insulation than steel alone. Metal siding is also available upon request.
Customize your structure even more with metal or shingled roofing. Both are dependable materials that complement the look of your barn.
