These Seven Elements Can Elevate Your Horse Barn’s Style
Stepping into a luxury horse barn is an experience. From the stunning stalls to the pristine finishes, no detail goes unnoticed in these barns. You can design a luxury horse barn of your own by making some specific, strategic decisions. You can put these seven tips to use to add a sense of luxury to your horse barn.
Choose Horse Stalls That Create a Sense of Luxury
Your Horse Stall System choice has a tremendous effect on the aesthetic of your barn, and your stalls alone can create a sense of luxury.
European Stall Fronts are the epitome of luxury and elegance. These stall fronts do not maximize ventilation and natural light. Still, they also provide your horses with a clear view of their surroundings and the opportunity to engage with the action going on around them.
We custom-build all of our European Stall Fronts to order, so you can choose from different styles, dimensions, and wood fill options to craft the stalls to match your precise vision for your barn. We also offer a variety of additional features, such as aluminum caps or brass finials, to add the perfect finishing touch to the stalls.

Don’t Underestimate the Importance of Interior Wood Choice
Your choice of wood for the interior of your barn can also add a luxurious touch. We offer a selection of fill options for stalls, including Southern yellow pine tongue and groove, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) tongue and groove, and exotic hardwoods, like Brazilian hardwood. These fill options can enhance the look of your stalls, and you might choose to coordinate them with your wood choice for the rest of your barn’s interior.
Certain woods can add a beautiful finish and are also highly desirable due to their exceptional performance. Brazilian hardwood is one of the top choices due to its excellent strength. It’s also resistant to rot and insects, plus it often features rich, deep tones.
Southern yellow pine is also frequently used in barns. It’s a cost-efficient choice and is a strong softwood. You can enhance its look with various stain shades for a richer color, although some barn owners prefer the naturally lighter yellow hue of this wood.
Invest in Large Windows to Create an Impression
Large Barn Windows are ideal for your horses’ health and for a luxurious barn style. We make our hinged barn windows to order, so they’re a perfect fit for existing window openings or the planned openings on your new barn construction.
Barn Windows can contribute to your barn’s overall style, and since they allow natural light to travel into your barn, they can enhance its indoor appearance, too. We can create windows with or without fill, and you can pair the windows with yokes or grills.
Since we can craft windows in various styles, such as shutter windows or windows with welded crossbucks, you can use them to add a very distinctive style to your barn.

Custom Order Barn Doors to Make a Statement
Your Barn Doors can make a powerful statement, and that’s why we custom-design and build barn doors to your specifications. Tall aisle entry doors set the tone for what visitors can expect when they enter your barn, and they’re also an essential functional element of your barn.
Since we custom-design barn doors, we can build something completely unique for your barn. We offer sliding, hinged, and arched door designs, and we can even incorporate your logo for a personalized, luxurious touch.
Use Custom Lighting to Enhance the Space
Your Barn Lighting can transform your barn’s atmosphere while contributing to its functionality and safety. Adequate and appropriate lighting makes your job caring for your horses easier, and it also creates a more enjoyable environment.
But Barn Lighting functions as a design element, too, and it can add a sense of luxury to your horse barn. We offer exterior and interior lighting designed to maximize aesthetic appeal and functionality. Early 20th-century designs inspire these fixtures, bringing elegance to your stable. Each fixture is custom-made with sustainable American metals, including steel, copper, and brass, and is designed to enhance and beautifully illuminate your barn.
So many barns feature bulk-manufactured, industrial-style lighting. By selecting our custom-designed lighting elements, you can add a charming finishing touch to your barn, creating a warm and inviting space for both horses and humans.
Choose a Classic Fencing Look
As you drive toward your barn, chances are you’ll drive past your pastures first. Investing in classic fencing makes a stunning impression and adds a traditional touch to your barn.
While wood fencing is the typical choice, you can enjoy enhanced durability with HDPE Horse Fencing. This high-quality fencing is exceptionally durable, yet it delivers the picture-perfect look of a traditional three-, four-, or five-panel, polished, and powder-coated fence. This fencing is available in eight colors, so you can go with a classic white or another option that complements your barn. It’s safeguarded by a UV protection film to ensure the fencing retains its look and won’t crack in extreme temperatures.
Focus on Finishing Touches
Some of the smallest details in your barn add a touch of luxury. Consider ordering custom, elegant stall nameplates to create a finishing touch on your stalls. Brass nameplates are a classic touch, but there are also many ornate options that can be crafted with wood or other materials.
Your saddle and bridle rack choices can enhance the appearance of your tack room or tack stall. Our Bridle Hooks are a timeless and elegant design. Crafted from solid brass, they’re hand-polished and powder-coated for durability, so they add a beautiful touch to your tack room.
