Homes near the Nebraska line
Norton sits on US-36 in northwest Kansas, close to the Nebraska line. Homes and steeples sit on open ground. See residential lightning protection and church and steeple lightning protection.
Elevators and commercial roofs
Grain elevators and shop roofs are among the most exposed buildings in town. See commercial lightning protection and farm lightning protection.
Prairie Dog State Park
Southwest of town, Keith Sebelius Lake and Prairie Dog State Park draw cabins and homes onto open ground near the water.
Small towns across the county
Almena, Lenora, and Clayton each have a grain elevator, a school, and a church or two that stand well above the houses around them. Those buildings, and the farmsteads in between, are the main reason people call us in Norton County. A system there is planned so each building has its own air terminals, conductors, and ground rods.
Norton County farms
Wheat and cattle farmsteads along Prairie Dog Creek and the Solomon River country put barns, bins, and shops on wide-open prairie. See farm lightning protection.

FAQ
Norton lightning protection FAQ
Do you serve Almena and Lenora?
Yes. We serve Norton and Norton County. Call (682) 490-2850, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.
Can you protect elevators?
Yes. We put air terminals on the headhouse and the tallest points, then bond the bins and legs into the grounding.
Do you protect barns and farmhouses together?
Yes. See farm lightning protection.
What affects the cost of lightning protection in Norton?
Every system is priced for the building, so we don't quote a flat number. The main factors are roof size and height, the number of chimneys, dormers, and ridges, the roof material, how many buildings need protection, and the soil where the ground rods go. We give a free written estimate for Norton County properties after looking at the site.
Will lightning rods make my building more likely to be hit?
No. A lightning rod does not draw lightning to a building. It gives a strike that was already going to hit the structure a planned, low-resistance path along conductors to ground, so the current is less likely to pass through framing, wiring, or plumbing.
Will lightning rods lower my insurance in Norton County?
It is worth asking your agent. Some insurers take lightning protection into account on homes, barns, and churches, but policies differ. We can give you a written description of the system we installed for your records.
