The walls are half walls, which also allow great interaction. The doors have a nice dip so the horses can be more social and look around if they’re bored. Everything is heavy duty steel and brass… it’s beautiful! It reminds me of my childhood, when I visited my grandparents. Nana D from the United States – The best things about my horse barn is the European look of the stalls and setup. That insulation may also have made the barn a little cooler or warmer depending upon the season. I wish I had put some type of insulation on the roof panels to cut the noise of rain. When it rains it is horrible noisy, for me! No idea if the horses mind, but they are under cover if it is nasty out. OK…so the one thing I wish I had known to do when building…. You must drive through my personal driveway to access the barns and pasture space. There are no outside perimeter gates on my property. The fields are wire fenced so no barb wire for my horses! All gates are wide enough so farm equipment can easily pass through. The backside of my barn also has an overhang of 4 feet, so stays pretty dry inside.Īround the barn, I put up wooden plank fence. This is great for getting out of the heat and rain, or just to lie down and rest in the shade if they wish. The barn has an overhang of 16 feet which allows the horses to come stand under the roof for weather protection. In winter I put up heavy clear panels that allow light but stop that cold breeze making the barn warmer. Even when filled to capacity with all “my goodies” inside my storage stall, I have ample walk-around space. This stall holds equipment and can fit 2 tons of hay easily, when stacked properly. My storage stall is the same design so it doesn’t get too hot or muggy, either. The walls, bottom to top, measure 8 1/2 feet high, my barn height to the rafters is 12′, not including the peak. My horse barn has great ventilation for my hot and humid climate. This ensures that they cannot harass the neighbor horse… The horses can give dirty looks but no touching or bickering is allowed! The stall doors are open on top, half doors, and situated that no two are next to each other. The bars on top allow for nice ‘neighbor visits’ between the horse and also keep the peace when horses are being fed or are on stall confinement for any reason. Each horse stall has lower walls of solid plank, with bars along the top half. My barn is 4 stalls… each stall measures 12’x12′, inside dimensions. Horse Lover from the USA – I have a pole barn structure so there’s great ventilation for my hot and humid climate.
