Luxury Barn Details That Just Make Sense

Dreaming of a barn that you've seen on Instagram or Pinterest recently? You’re at the just the right place! At American Stalls, we are known for crafting stable equipment that are durable, functional, and exceptionally elegant. 

As you look to begin your project, we've compiled a list of things to keep top of your list. We want you to enjoy your barn's beauty, but also ensure that it is functional for your daily needs. Here are just some of the luxury barn finishes that just make sense:

Barn Lighting

Proper lighting does not just ensure safety through enhanced visibility. It also contributes to the atmosphere of the entire barn. If lighting is properly done, your barn instantly feels cozier and feel more homey, contributing to the happiness of your horse.

At American Stalls, you get your choice: from pendant lighting to gooseneck lamps to wall sconces, you name it! All of our light fixtures are made of commercial-grade material. Each piece is handcrafted and custom made for you.

You have the option to add unique finishes, such as porcelain enamel glaze which our craftsmen hand-apply to our solid-steel shades. They are then oven-baked to provide a long lasting, stunning finish that also seals it from the elements in the barn in any climate. We also make sure that we use sustainable, 100% American steel, copper and brass in our light pieces.

Dutch Doors & Barn Windows

Lighting isn’t just about lamps or fixtures. Actually, what’s more important in a barn is that you let natural sunlight in. Sunlight has natural anti-bacterial properties which is we ensure our designs allow sunlight to freely inside your stables.

Dutch Doors and Barn Windows are the perfect addition to the back of each of your horse stalls. They provide the access to fresh air, natural light, and socialization your horses need for their well-being. Our Dutch Doors add another level of functionality by allowing you another entry and exit. Easily turn your horses in and out of their stalls into paddocks and pastures from their Dutch Doors. It is especially a great feature for geographies that are more prone to fire hazards. 

Organizing Tack Hardware

As organization experts, we know that clean and organized space often allow for a peaceful mind. Regardless of season, we all know the barns where the bridles, saddles, blankets, fly sheets, and other accessories seem to be overflowing all over the place. 

That is why we prioritize building tack hardware pieces that look beautiful, feel hardy, and are most importantly functional. We offer robust Blanket Bars to organize your horse blankets and fly sheets. Elegant Saddle Racks that help your saddles maintain their shape and breathe to extend the lifespan of the leather.

Expertly crafted brass hooks allow you to organize bridles, bits, and everything in-between. Choose from our Bridle Hooks for your bridles to our Double Hooks for equestrian and general apparel. After all, these are the elements that pull everything you’ve put in your barn together. 

Sliding Stall Fronts

What type of Stall Front is our most functional style? This list would be incomplete without a mention of our popular Sliding Stall Fronts. These Stall Doors help you save precious space in your aisles since the Stall Doors slide flush against your stall instead of a hinged door that opens into your aisle.

Crafted with exquisite attention to detail, our Sliding Door Horse Stalls offer you the ability to save space, while offering dozens of customizations. From custom yokes to various latch options to different feed features; you can customize your Sliding Stall Fronts to your design needs. 

Are you ready to get started on your barn project? If you can dream it, we can build it! Contact us today if you may have any additional questions or would like to speak to someone from our expert design staff.
