At American Stalls, we are firm believers that any space should be equally sophisticated and functional. After all, what is a good barn that looks stunning, but has little practicality? Here are several products to consider to make your daily barn experience more enjoyable and seamless:
Similar to the home, lighting is crucial in any barn setting. The right lighting can impact your barn's aesthetics and functionality. At American Stalls, we offer various barn lighting solutions that custom built in the USA from premium American steel and other metals.
We offer a variety of styles, diameters, and sizes. Above is an example of our Amidship Wall Mount Bulkhead Lights in a 8-stall private barn in Louisiana (tour now). Another example is our Gooseneck Lamps below for a 58-stall barn renovation at Arroyo Del Mar for Olympian Steffen Peters (tour now).
Our Barn Lights not only enhance the visual appeal of your barn, but also significantly improve visibility and safety within the barn. From the barn aisle to the tack room to the wash bay to barn exterior, we have a solution for just about every barn space. Whether you need accentuated lighting to highlight particular features or practical illumination for everyday tasks, our barn lights are designed to meet your needs.
Ask any equestrian and you'll hear a consensus that maintaining a tidy barn can be a challenge. The most common culprit tends to be bedding and shavings that find their way into the aisle; invading every inch.
This is why we wholeheartedly recommend our Bedding Blockers. While some might see it as just a brush, our Bedding Blockers are an engineered, extremely rigid bristle system nestled into a hard PVC base. Our Bedding Blockers ensure that your horse stall's bedding stays where it's supposed to be – inside the stall rather than spilling into the aisle.
Our Bedding Blockers are bound to make your life easier and less cumbersome. Reducing the time and effort required for cleaning, but it also decreases your overall bedding costs due to less waste. The end result is a tidier barn environment which allows you to spend more time enjoying your horses and barn.
On a similar note, organization is another essential ingredient to a successful barn. From tack to blankets to saddles and more, horse barns always have the opportunity for clutter. The right combination of tack hardware and organization hardware can make for a beautiful, sleek aesthetic while driving organization.
For example, our Bridle Hooks are designed with this in mind. Made from the solid brass and meticulously machined, our Bridle Hooks provide a stylish and practical solution for keeping bridles organized. Each hook features a ergonomic design that allows your bridles to breathe and stay dry.
This same ergonomic design can be found throughout our hardware line – from our Single Hook to Double Hook to Blanket Bars to Saddle Racks (above). Our Tack Hardware makes for a stunning aesthetic, while extending your tacks's longevity.
We've now talked about the barn exterior, horse stalls, and tack room. Last up are two essential areas to any horse barn - the wash and grooming bays. An organized and functional wash and grooming area is essential for any barn. When we think about a well organized area, we prioritize ample organization, cross ties, and ability to declutter any obstacles.
For example, the above Wash Bay Boom is the perfect solution to ensure you have full access and mobility to clean your horses. Constructed from 304 stainless steel, this boom offers full 360-degree mobility, allowing you to clean your horses with ease and efficiency. The design ensures that water hoses do not get tangled, providing a seamless and stress-free washing experience.
Another wonderful option to consider is our Wash & Grooming Stall Partitions. These can be custom built to your needs. Below is an example of a solid stall partition that is filled with Southern Yellow Pine lumber, but it includes cross tie rings.
Another example is this stall partition which includes our aluminum, perforated trays. This partition allows for easy organization upon a tray that will stand up to the elements due to its rigid aluminum construction.
At American Stalls, we are dedicated to creating barn environments that are peaceful, beautiful, and functional. While we are known from our luxury stall fronts, barn doors, and more - we take tremendous pride in our hardware and accessory options. From custom lighting solutions to practical bedding blockers, elegant tack hardware, and wash bay solutions, our products are designed to meet your needs. By focusing on functionality and aesthetics, we ensure that your barn is a place of comfort, efficiency, and style.
