Equestrian facilities require specialized structures designed to meet the diverse needs of horse owners, trainers, and breeders. At National Barn Company, we understand that each equestrian activity has its unique requirements, and our range of outbuildings is crafted to accommodate every aspect of horse care and training.

Here’s a guide to the various types of equestrian barns, each designed with their own functionality, durability, and horse safety in mind.

Run-In Sheds

Ideal for providing shelter to horses in pasture settings, run-in sheds are essential for horse owners who prefer to keep their animals in a more natural, open environment. These structures offer horses the freedom to choose when to seek shelter from weather elements, promoting healthier and happier animals. Run-in sheds are built with durable materials and can be customized with various roofing options to blend with your existing farm layout.

Center-Aisle Barns

Center-aisle barns are the quintessential choice for professional and amateur horse owners alike. Featuring a central hallway with stalls lining either side, these barns optimize space while ensuring efficient airflow and accessibility. Each stall is designed to provide maximum comfort and safety for your horses, with options for tack rooms, wash bays, and feed storage, making daily operations smoother and more organized.

Riding Arenas

Indoor riding arenas are a game-changer for equestrian training, particularly in regions with unpredictable weather. Custom riding arenas are designed to fit your specific needs, whether you require a small, private space for dressage practice or a large commercial arena suitable for hosting events. With high-quality lighting, sound insulation, and footing options, riding arenas provide a safe and controlled environment for riders and horses.

Breeding Sheds

Specialized activities like horse breeding require specific facilities, and breeding sheds are built to facilitate the safe and effective management of breeding operations. These sheds are designed with the safety of both the mare and stallion in mind, equipped with adjustable partitions and secure handling features to maintain a controlled environment during the breeding process.

Storage Barns

Proper storage is crucial for maintaining equestrian equipment and supplies in good condition. Storage barns are versatile and can be customized to store feed, bedding, tack, and even vehicles like tractors and trailers. Built to withstand the rigors of farm life, these barns help keep your investments safe and organized.

Whether you’re a hobbyist or a professional in the equestrian world, having the right outbuildings can significantly enhance your efficiency, safety, and enjoyment of horse-related activities. At National Barn Company, our experienced team is dedicated to constructing high-quality equestrian barns that meet the specific needs of our clients.
