Installing Steel Siding on a Pole Barn, Trimming Windows, and Cutting Tools - Nibblers or Shears?

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.

Two things, you messed up your layout around that window, you should never have a rib right on the edge of a window like that and your upper piece of house wrap you should have left loose and then installed it over the top of your window nailer flange. Helps keep water from running in behind your window.

You don't care if someone says he messed up because you're on the way out you don't have tonfix the fuxk up. That's cheap siding that has faster showing in a climate region it'll leak in 5 years time. That's not good work it's crap work. Even my autistic brother know faster showing is bad

Good job. Every detail you discussed was pertinent to someone doing the work. We didn't like the look of the flanges due to the J-channels and similar trim around the windows, so we went with the Haslet frame kits which were easy to install.

@victorvek5227 2 года назад
After just having a $27k estimate given to replace vinyl siding in 2022; I’m seriously wondering how much cheaper it would be to go with metal siding instead. My only real concern? Those darn rubber gaskets around the fasteners. They last 5 years tops in the elements. Unless you’re using some kind of silicone gasket on each fastener.
@spinks4integrity
@spinks4integrity 2 года назад
Great point about those rubber gaskets, I have a metal roof with those and definitely had to put silicone on the ones above my windows to stop water leaking.

Any problem with water leaking at either end of the drip edge? I guess if there was any it would be minor/acceptable for a shop/shed/barn, but on a house? Could be a problem with sheetrock. It would be nice if the drip edge had dams at each end but thats a job for a metal shop.
@CountryFamily
@CountryFamily 5 лет назад
Thanks for the comment Kevin. I have had no issues at all with water infiltration. That piece of drip edge above the window is more for extra protection than the primary protection. Most of the time that drip edge trim isn't used just the J-channel. The ends of the J-channel are bent over into the side pieces so the water flows away down each side. I am actually a little concerned about the bottom corners because it seems that some water from above could seep through there. That's why I used the synthetic roof felt around the window and taped everything with the window sealer tape.

Nice job! I was wondering how you did the corners...did they come with the siding precut or did you custom fir them? Are they generic or specific to the type of siding?
@CountryFamily
@CountryFamily 4 года назад
Thanks Robert, the corners are standard for metal siding. They are bent deep enough to fit over a siding rib. To trim the angles on top just takes careful measurements and even a sample template if you have enough length to cut some off.

I like the color. U are putting it so well am sure it’s kinda therapeutic to u if it was to me just by watching. Can I put this on a house after OSBs? Seems like metal siding could provide 100% moisture free house.
@CountryFamily
@CountryFamily 5 лет назад
Yes a lot of times when I'm working alone it is therapeutic and takes your mind off other things. I don't recall seeing this type of siding used on a house before, but I don't see why not. You definitely could put it over OSB. That would be similar to how I did my roof. A standing seam metal siding would be even better moisture protection. Thanks for the comment.

How do you get the window out if it gets broken? Looks like you'll have to remove all the metal (due to metal overlapping) up to the window just to replace the window. Why didn't you put some kind of molding (brick mold) over the flanges of the window and then place your j-channel around the molding?
@danielsmith7935
@danielsmith7935 2 года назад
You just loosen the two panels around the window. Take screws partially out of next piece that falls over the side of the one panel to remove only. This will allow you to slip the one underlayed out and remove the panels you need to remove the window. I know because I installed windows after my barn was finished!

How's she goin'? The barn is looking great!!! I like the color. Sort of pastel and not too dominant in the yard. Neat idea for punching the holes with the nail set. We put roofing on and drilled the holes and went through about 40 drill bits!!! The mitered corners rock!!! Is it easy for you to source steel siding and roofing in your area? Nice job pal. Looking good. Take care!!!
@CountryFamily
@CountryFamily 5 лет назад
Thanks Mike. The color is Sage. I had to talk my wife into it. As you can see from the house, she doesn't like to veer far from the beige family. 😄 I really like it though plus there will be a darker color up above in the gable ends to really set it off. We have a Menard's in town that sells steel siding/roofing like mine. My roofing though, I got from an Amish gentleman that bends it all by hand with a huge brake in his barn. I went with him because he had the matte finish I was looking for to match the shingles on the house better. I don't care for a shiny roof. Thanks for watching.

@CountryFamily

It's not too bad to remove a couple sections of siding to replace the window. Unless it's nailed instead of screwed. Or some companies can make a replacement that fits into the opening. Good luck with your project.
