CHOOSE THE RIGHT STALL<br />
SYSTEM…<br />
They all look the same! When<br />
looking for a durable and<br />
dependable stall system you must<br />
consider a number of factors.<br />
What does the kit include? What<br />
type of finish is on the stall<br />
system? How much labour am<br />
I going to have to put into the<br />
stalls after I receive them? What<br />
is the bar spacing or what level of<br />
safety do I want for my horses?<br />
How quickly do I need them?<br />
The Standard and Welded<br />
systems all require posts for<br />

<strong>System</strong> comes complete with<br />

a great looking stall front or<br />

WHERE DO I BEGIN?<br />
Whether you’re<br />
building a<br />
complete new<br />
facility or a<br />
renovation you<br />
need to start<br />
with a plan. Ask<br />
yourself how much you want<br />
to do, based on your needs,<br />
requirements and budget. Talk<br />
to other horse people, friends<br />
and look at magazines for ideas<br />
and inspirations for your farm.<br />
