The Basics of Our Animal Shelters

Our Animal Shelters were designed with your animals in mind. When bad weather starts to roll in, having a place for your animals to go to is a safe choice and a smart investment. Our Animal Shelters can be built using pressure-treated T1-11 siding as well as our LP Smart Panel™ siding and the roofing choices can be metal siding or shingles. Our Animal Shelter includes: 

• 4in x 6in Pressure Treated perimeter base

• 1-1/4in Pressure Treated Kick Boards approximately 4ft high, spaced 1-1/2in apart

• Standard stall opening is 8ft wide

• One stall is standard per 12ft of length (10ft x 12ft = 1 stall, 10ft x 20ft = 1 stall, 10ft x 24ft = 2 stalls). Tack room is not included**

• Additional stalls (includes opening and divider) can be added for an additional cost (optional)

• Buildings will be set directly on ground with no blocking.

• Ground must be suitable for application prior to delivery

Backyard Outfitters (BYO) and its associates are not responsible for permits, covenant searches, restrictions, setbacks, yard damage, or underground damage. Please contact your local Building Inspector or Homeowners Association for information. It is the customer’s responsibility to decide if ground conditions are unsuitable for delivery. Free setup includes leveling the building to the specifications on our blocking diagram (customer may request a copy from dealer) starting with the high corner at ground level. Buildings may then be leveled to a maximum of 2 feet at the highest corner. If leveling requires one (1) foot or less, pressure-treated wood may be used. Otherwise, customer may supply concrete blocks which are placed on top of the ground, or our delivery drivers can supply concrete blocks for a fee (check with driver or dealer for prices). In very rare cases, underground footers may be required by local building codes. BYO does not offer digging or footer services, which are not included in free setup. Free delivery covers one trip up to thirty (30) miles one way. Trips over 30 miles are subject to a $4.00/mile (8,10,&12 ft wide) or $5.00 /mile (14ft wide) or $6.00/mile (16ft wide) charge one way. Custom Orders require a Non-Refundable deposit to order, see dealer for details.
