Many horses dislike being stabled, which makes the task of creating a pleasant stable design one of the most important parts of our process. When designing stables for our clients, we review every detail to ensure your horse is as comfortable as possible, including stall and alleyway dimensions and ceiling height. The size of your horse and number of horses you plan to stable helps us determine how large each stall should be to maximize comfort. Other aspects to consider are the flooring, equipment, and lighting in your space. By installing the right flooring and feeding and watering equipment in each stall, we can ensure your horses are cared for at all times and you never have to worry about their safety. Additionally, since ventilation and natural lighting are a major part of keeping your horses happy while inside, we make it a point to incorporate as many windows in your design as possible and in areas that aren’t susceptible to accidental damage. 

Any horse enthusiast knows horses can be clumsy. Sometimes they can misjudge a step or a surface change, causing them to stumble before catching themselves. However, harmless stumbles from time to time can be dangerous if your horse barn isn’t equipped with the proper safety equipment to handle infrequent falls. To ensure your horses are as safe as possible, our equestrian facilities are equipped with a number of safety features designed to keep them from harming themselves, including horse-safe, concealed knife plates on heavy timber connections and chew protection on exposed surfaces. This ensures that any falls or acts of boredom don’t result in a trip to the vet and gives you the peace of mind to know your horses are protected in any event.
