When investing in a new agricultural building, you want to ensure that the final design is long lasting and meets all your unique requirements. 

From a sturdy roof to a durable structure, our buildings can withstand all kinds of weather conditions. Along with including windows for natural light, we can install features like lighting to make it easy to work at any time of the day or night.

How an agricultural building is designed should not only be centred around the way it is used, but the location of your farm. For instance, it is important to construct the design so that it complies with local environmental regulations and minimises the impact on the surrounding environment. You need to ensure it is easy to access essential utilities, including water and electricity when needed. 

Other factors to consider include:

  • The size and layout. It is vital to consider the types and quantities of equipment, animals, or crops you plan to house. We can help you design a layout that accommodates all activities and storage needs. 

  • Adequate ventilation, fire protection and insulation. Agricultural buildings must have the correct windows, vents, or fans to ensure good airflow. This is particularly important for maintaining a healthy environment for animals and preventing issues with dampness. You also want to regulate the temperature in more testy weather conditions. This will help keep animals comfortable and protect stored crops and equipment. You also want electrical systems that meet the latest regulations and reduce the risk of fires.

  • Secure storage solutions. AC Jackson Ltd can create storage areas for tools, equipment and feed to keep them organised and protect them from the elements.

  • Access solutions. Ensure that you have easy access for vehicles, tractors and machinery. 

  • A good drainage system. A decent drainage system will stop issues that lead to structural damage and potential health hazards.

  • Pest control measures. We can introduce measures to prevent and control pests like rodents and insects, as they can damage crops and harm animals.

  • Security. Implement security measures, like locks and alarms, to protect your equipment and livestock from theft.
