Have you wondered how to install steel siding on a pole barn?
In this video I show how easy it can be. The sheets cover 3 foot so it goes up pretty fast. I ordered my siding pre-cut to the lengths I needed so both the top and bottom edge had nice clean factory edges. Cutting the siding around window and door openings will be necessary though and for that I used a couple different tools. Hand shears from Wiss worked the best for cutting across the ribs. For ripping length-wise, I found that mechanical shears worked best. I used pneumatic shears because the cost savings over electric shears was significant. I also used an pneumatic nibbler when I only needed to go part way across a sheet. These allowed me to create and opening big enough to get the shears in to finish the opening.
This video also shows how I trimmed around my windows with a metal drip edge on top and then using J-channel around all the sides. I miter the corners for a nice picture-framed look.
