If you decide on building your barn from scratch, you’ll need to source all of the components. Here is a list to help you get started.
Stall Mats
Boomerang stall mats are crafted using the highest-quality recycled rubber, ensuring unmatched durability and performance. Unlike crumb rubber mats that break down and lose shape over time, they’re engineered to withstand heavy impact, resist wear and tear, and provide long-lasting comfort and protection for your horses.

Stall Gates
The robust design crafted from high-gauge steel features a European yoke opening and a safe mesh lower section. Suitable for large horse breeds, such as warmbloods and draft horses, but the sturdy mesh design at the bottom means they can also be used for smaller breeds.

Hay Feeders
The InStall Hay OptiMizer is a durable slow feeder that takes just a few seconds to load with a day’s worth of hay. Your horse will love having a pasture in a box.

Barn Windows
Armour’s smooth fascia panel swings open to one side of any barn window opening of adequate size. One-panel design allows for easy open and close with the slide of one bolt latch. The smooth interior surface panels provide an “edge free” surface. Custom sizes are available.
