At American Stalls, we take pride in crafting high-quality, custom barn solutions that seamlessly blend elegance, function, and durability. Our latest project in Brenham, Texas is a prime example of our commitment to excellence. Designed to meet the unique needs of both horse and owner, this stunning barn features European Stall Fronts, custom Barn Doors, and Dutch Doors—all tailored to provide superior comfort, ventilation, and ease of use.
Custom European Stall Fronts
At the heart of this barn are four European Stall Fronts, offering a perfect balance of style and functionality. Built to last for decades, these stalls provide horses with a safe and inviting space while enhancing the overall aesthetics of the barn.
These European Stall Fronts are a "high" style, meaning that most of this horse stall front is positioned taller than our "low" European Stall Fronts. This provides a beautiful aesthetic, while providing function by safely housing its equine residents.
Features of our Custom European Stall Fronts:
-
Yoke-Style Stall Doors – Although this is a "high" European Stall Front, our yoke allows our client's horses to socialize with their barn mates, fostering a sense of connection and relaxation.
- Mesh Bottom in Stall Door — Mesh allows for optimal visibility and airflow while adding a sleek, modern aesthetic. You can learn more about our thoughts on mesh in horse stalls here.
-
Grilled Feed Doors – This functional upgrade makes feeding time effortless and efficient for barn staff and horse owners. Simply open using our stainless steel plunger latch to provide the feed of your choice to your horses effortlessly. Watch the Feed Door in motion here!
Custom Sliding Barn Doors & Residential Entries
This project also included manufacturing six custom Sliding Barn Doors, each designed with precision and attention to detail. Our Barn Doors are found throughout the property—from the horse barn to the client's private residence's garage entryway. Our Barn Entry Doors feature a variety of designs, including cross bucks and window designs, to enhance the barn's traditional yet functional appeal.
For the horse barn, the client chose two beautiful sets of Barn Entry Doors on both ends of the center aisle. One set included a traditional full cross-buck design that was filled with lumber top to bottom. The other set includes a beautiful tempered glass design on top while incorporating the cross buck theme on the bottom.
Premium Materials for Long-Lasting Durability:
- 304 Stainless Steel – We utilize stainless steel on our door handles and other key hardware points to ensure rust resistance and longevity.
- Galvanized Steel (Powder-Coated) – All American Stalls barn doors feature pre-galvanized steel that is 100% United States steel. Our galvanized steel includes 30% more zinc than the competition to provide an extra layer of protection against the elements.
-
Handcrafted Door Handles – Designed to complement the barn’s overall aesthetic.
In addition to the center aisle's ends, our client incorporated two more beautiful sets of doors in their barn's side entry. These doors feature a heavy-duty cross buck design to continue the theme. The addition of these doors allows our client to easily transport their heavy machinery and vehicles in and out of the barn with ease. 
In addition to the barn, we also designed the custom dogtrot-style Barn Doors for the garage entryway.
These beautiful doors were built to order with a unique, custom lumber design. 
Although this design was slightly different from the barn's, it still helped maintain consistency throughout the property.
Dutch Doors for Versatility & Accessibility
To complete the barn, our client chose four Dutch Doors, a staple in any high-end equestrian facility. These cross-buck-style doors offer flexibility, allowing horses to enjoy fresh air and visibility while remaining safely enclosed. 
Our Dutch Doors also extend to mindfully placed stall runs, allowing our clients to turn their horses out to enjoy the pleasant Texas weather.
Key Features of Our Dutch Doors:
-
Dual Opening Functionality— Doors can be opened from both the inside and outside. Secondly, our Dutch Doors feature a functional split design, where the top door can be opened while the bottom door remains closed.
-
Hold Back Latches – All Dutch Doors include mindful hold back latches that allow you to secure the doors open during nice weather. Our client can either hold back just the top or both doors.
Final Thoughts
This Brenham, Texas barn exemplifies craftsmanship, innovation, and equestrian excellence. From custom stall fronts to handcrafted barn and residential doors, every element was meticulously designed to enhance the property’s functionality and aesthetic appeal.
