Obtaining a permit for your Best Barns or Sentry Buildings kit.

Building code oces and HOA’s may require dierent documents to obtain a permit. e homeowners rst step
is to contact their local code oce and ask what is needed for the size of building to be purchased.

Typically, the necessary documentation may include some or all of the following.

• Elevations showing at least two sides of structure.

• Site plan showing existing structures and proposed build site.

• Engineered drawings for truss system indicating snow and wind load ratings.*

• Cross sections of wall framing and foundation.

• Tie down locations for high wind load areas.

Permit requirements vary based on location. Some areas may not require a permit at all. e documents
provided by Best Barns or Sentry Buildings are intended to help the homeowner with the permit process but do
not guarantee a permit will be issued.** It is the homeowner’s responsibility to determine if a permit is required
and submit the necessary documentation if so.

* Engineered truss drawings stamped for your individual state can be obtained upon request. A deposit
will be required if shed or garage kit has not yet been purchased. Contact us directly at 800-245-1577 for further
details.

** Certain states such as Florida and California have stringent requirements for obtaining a permit.
Depending on your location, a civil engineer’s services may be required to provide necessary documents. ese
services are the homeowners responsiblity to obtain and are not included in the purchase of a shed or garage kit.
