Rugged Solutions for Big Spaces

Barns, Shops & Warehouses

We install and maintain high-capacity electrical systems for barns, shops, outbuildings and industrial storage buildings throughout Northern Colorado, from acreage properties in Laporte and Wellington to warehouses in Fort Collins and Loveland. Our installations are built to handle rugged use and demanding equipment loads.

What we install

  • New service or a feeder and subpanel from your home to a barn or shop
  • Trenching coordination and underground feeders
  • 240-volt circuits for welders, compressors and power tools
  • Heated waterers, stock tank heaters and well pumps
  • High-bay LED lighting, plus exterior and security lighting
  • Damp- and dust-rated fixtures, outlets and enclosures

Built for tough conditions

Barns and shops face dust, moisture, temperature swings and the occasional run-in with equipment. We choose wiring methods, conduit and fixtures rated for those conditions so your system stays safe for years.

Warehouses and industrial storage

For larger buildings we handle three-phase power, distribution panels, dock and loading area lighting, and the circuits your equipment needs. For pumps, compressors and fans, see our motor control services.

Permits and inspections

Outbuilding wiring needs to be permitted and inspected just like your home. We take care of it so your insurance and future buyers have the paperwork they need.
