What do you want to do with it is first question, machinery only or live stalk only or both? In this area of the country most barns were a combination and you tried to have the livestalk doors opening toard the south or east away from the prevaling winds as those were what were open the most of the time and you wanted to keep the livestalk out of the wind. And then the machinery doors you very seldom opened during the winter and if you did you waited for a nice day to do it as then you were usually hauling manure or feed so you picked the best weather you could get. So if they were on the north or west did not make the difference of the livestalk doors. Now if you are just wanting it for machinery storage it will not make much difference but open sides are still prety musch on soulh or east still due to prevaling winds and that is close to oposite of combimation barns as livestalk entrance was determining factor after ground layout.
