What We Build In Louisiana

Custom Metal Buildings for Every Louisiana Property

Six categories. Infinite configurations. Every structure delivered and installed free anywhere in the Pelican State.

Most Popular

Metal Garages

Enclosed 1-car to 5-car garages — a Louisiana alternative to termite-magnet wood garages that rot in the humidity. Hurricane-spec wind ratings available for Southeast LA and the coastal parishes, with Galvalume steel that resists Gulf salt-air corrosion.

Starting at$4,944or $75/mo

Metal Barns

Enclosed, open, and lean-to barns for Louisiana agriculture — sugarcane in Iberia and Assumption, rice in Acadia and Vermilion, crawfish ponds across Acadiana, cattle in the northern parishes, and horse operations in Ascension and East Feliciana.

Starting at$8,995or $86/mo

Commercial Available

Metal Buildings & Workshops

AG, Residential & Commercial-grade, clear-span structures up to 60+ feet wide — serving the Baton Rouge-New Orleans chemical corridor vendors, Shreveport-Bossier oil patch contractors, Huntington Ingalls / Bollinger shipbuilding support, and Port of South Louisiana logistics.

Starting at$14,995or $166/mo

RV Garages & Covers

Tall-clearance RV garages and open-sided covers with hurricane anchoring — sized for Class A coaches, fifth wheels on tandem trailers, and duck-boat / airboat / crawfish-pirogue combos. Popular around Toledo Bend, Cross Lake, Lake D’Arbonne, and the Grand Isle / coastal fishing camps.

Starting at$3,495or $48/mo
Shop RV Garages →

Barndominiums

Metal homes and live-in shops — an increasingly common choice on Louisiana acreage, especially in Livingston, Tangipahoa, St. Tammany, Ascension, and East Baton Rouge parishes where land is available and post-hurricane rebuilds drive demand. Engineer-stamped plans to LUCC spec.

Starting at$24,995or $250/mo
Shop Barndominiums →

Metal Carports

Regular, boxed-eave, and vertical-roof carports with hurricane-spec anchoring. Ida (2021), Laura (2020), and Delta (2020) all made Category 4 landfalls in Louisiana — flimsy fabric covers don’t survive here. Vertical-roof steel with 150–180 mph certified ratings is standard on the coast.

Starting at$1,600or $21/mo

Built For Louisiana

Three Regions, One Statewide Building Partner

Louisiana takes more Category-level hurricane hits than almost any state in the Union. Katrina (2005), Rita (2005), Gustav (2008), Ike (2008), Isaac (2012), Laura (2020), Delta (2020), and Ida (2021) all caused billions in damage. A standard metal building from an interior-state dealer won’t meet LUCC wind requirements — or survive the first real storm.

Engineered For The Weather Louisiana Actually Has

The Louisiana Uniform Construction Code (LUCC) enforces strict wind-load requirements across the state, escalating to 150+ mph on barrier parishes and coastal zones. Flood-zone overlays apply across much of southern LA. Summer humidity rots wood structures — that’s why metal is overwhelmingly the right choice here.

Keen’s ships every LA build with LUCC-compliant engineered drawings sized to your parish, with Galvalume corrosion-resistant finishes and elevated-pad options for properties inside flood plain boundaries. 20-year warranty on every build, same coverage from Caddo Parish to Plaquemines.

What Customers Say

Rated 4.96 / 5 Across 1,100+ Reviews

★★★★★
“We lost our old garage to Ida in 2021 and finally had the funds to replace it. Keen’s quoted a 24×30 spec’d for Terrebonne Parish’s 150–180 mph wind zone, and the install crew drove out of Florida through weather. Passed inspection first try. Feels like a fortress.”

Beau & Marie L.Houma, LA
★★★★★
“I run a small crawfish operation in Vermilion Parish and needed a 30×50 processing shed. Three local guys wanted 8+ months. Keen’s had it designed, LUCC-permitted, and installed in five weeks. In-house financing got me approved same-day, no bank headaches.”
T
Thibaut D.Abbeville, LA
★★★★★
“Bought a 20×40 workshop in Bossier Parish. Keen’s handled permitting through the parish office, coordinated the concrete pour, and had everything finished in six weeks. Best purchase decision I’ve made for my property in years.”

Louisiana Permits, Parishes & Building Codes

Louisiana enforces the Louisiana State Uniform Construction Code (LUCC) statewide, based on the IBC/IRC with state-specific amendments. All 64 parishes require compliance, though permit enforcement varies. Keen’s provides LUCC-compliant engineer-stamped drawings on every certified build.

Do I Need a Permit in LA?

Yes in almost every parish. Orleans, Jefferson, East Baton Rouge, Caddo, Lafayette, and all coastal parishes enforce LUCC with permit requirements for accessory structures, typically over 200 sq ft. Some rural north-LA parishes waive permits for farm buildings.

LUCC Engineer-Stamped Drawings

Wet-stamped engineered drawings by a licensed professional engineer are required for LUCC compliance statewide. Keen’s provides these with every certified build.

Coastal Hurricane Specs

Coastal parishes — Cameron, Vermilion, Iberia, St. Mary, Terrebonne, Lafourche, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, Orleans — enforce wind-load requirements up to 150–180 mph. Keen’s provides certified coastal-spec engineering.

Flood Zone Requirements

Much of southern LA sits in FEMA-mapped flood zones. Keen’s offers elevated-pad and pier foundation options that meet floodplain compliance, plus documentation for your parish inspector.

HOA & Subdivision Rules

Newer Baton Rouge and New Orleans area subdivisions (Ascension, Livingston, St. Tammany) have HOA architectural review. Keen’s provides renderings and color samples for review packets.

Setback & Servitude

Louisiana parish setbacks typically 5–15 ft side/rear; coastal parishes may have additional servitude setbacks related to drainage and canals. Your Keen’s specialist confirms before order.

Louisiana FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Metal Buildings in Louisiana

Eleven questions we hear most often from Louisiana buyers.

Does Keen’s Buildings deliver to my parish in Louisiana?
Yes — all 64 parishes, from Caddo and Bossier in the Arklatex through East Baton Rouge and Orleans in the Capital/Crescent corridor, down to Plaquemines and Cameron on the coast. Free delivery and installation statewide.
Are Keen’s metal buildings engineered for Louisiana hurricane wind loads?
Yes. Louisiana has taken 8+ major hurricane landfalls in the past 20 years including Katrina, Rita, Gustav, Ike, Isaac, Laura, Delta, and Ida. Keen’s buildings are engineered to LUCC ASCE 7 wind-load requirements: 150–180 mph inland, stepping up to 150–180 mph for coastal parishes. Wet-stamped engineered drawings are included with certified builds.
Can Keen’s build in Louisiana flood-zone areas?
Yes. Much of southern LA sits in FEMA-mapped flood zones after Katrina and subsequent remapping. Keen’s offers elevated-pad and pier foundation options that meet floodplain requirements, and we coordinate with your parish floodplain administrator on documentation.
How long does installation take after I order?
Typical lead time is 3 to 6 weeks. Hurricane-rebuild demand after a major landfall can push the longer end of that window. Bryson confirms a specific install window before you pay deposit.
Do I need a building permit in Louisiana?
Yes in most parishes. Orleans, Jefferson, East Baton Rouge, Caddo, Lafayette, and all coastal parishes enforce LUCC permits for accessory structures, typically over 200 sq ft. Many rural north-LA parishes are less strict for farm buildings.
What financing does Keen’s offer Louisiana customers?
In-house financing up to $100,000 with $0 down, or rent-to-own up to $25,000 with no credit check and same-day approval.
What warranty comes with a Louisiana build?
20-year warranty standard — same coverage whether your building is in a New Orleans suburb or on a coastal Cameron Parish fishing camp.
Can Keen’s build hurricane-rated coastal fish camps or boat covers?
Yes. Keen’s regularly builds hurricane-spec coastal covers, boat storage, and camp outbuildings for Grand Isle, Cocodrie, Cypremort Point, and Holly Beach. Certified to coastal-zone wind loads and engineered against salt-air corrosion.
Does Keen’s have a physical showroom in Louisiana?
Not yet — Keen’s operates seven showrooms across Florida and Georgia. Most LA buyers work with Bryson by phone, text, and the 3D designer.
What foundation do I need for Louisiana soils?
LA soils range from organic wetland peat in coastal areas to Mississippi alluvial silt in the Delta to north-LA red clay. Small carports work on compacted gravel; workshops and barndominiums typically need concrete pads. Flood-zone sites often require elevated piers.
What’s the biggest building you can install in Louisiana?
Up to 60+ feet wide and virtually any length. Clear-span workshops, sugar mill storage, crawfish operations, oil patch equipment barns, and shipyard-adjacent industrial buildings are all available statewide.
