Revolutionize your barn projects with durable Perma-Column construction solutions.

Built to Last: Discover the Strength of Perma-Column at Midlakes Sales

Designed to transform traditional post-frame construction, Perma-Column brings you the durability of concrete combined with the versatility of wood. Perma-Column products are a line of precast concrete columns that are used in post-frame or “pole barn” construction. These premade columns serve as a more durable and longer-lasting alternative to traditional wood posts that are buried in the ground.

Perma-Columns concrete post bases are made of reinforced concrete and are set onto a traditional concrete post footer. They come with a steel bracket at the top to attach the post; and this combination of concrete, steel and wood allows for the structural integrity and longevity of concrete at the base, while still providing the flexibility and ease of construction associated with traditional pole barn wood framing above ground.

This innovative approach extends the life of post-frame structures and reduces long-term maintenance costs, rot, or worries – and you can get everything you need at Midlakes Sales.

The Durability and Resilience of Perma-Column

Perma-Column is a new approach to pole barn or post construction.

Rather than set treated wood in the ground – which may someday rot or shift in its footing – the Perma-Column system relies on precast and rebar reinforced cement posts that are either anchored via drilled bolts or using wet-set anchors. These columns include brackets for tying into the traditional wood construction above the foundation.

Installation is a breeze and your customers will love the peace of mind that these precast columns provide.
