FAQ'S

01
Do I add a wall stiffener to both the stall front and stall partition?

We recommend to always use a wall stiffener when your stall surface's horizontal length is greater than 9’. Most stall fronts are an industry standard of 12’ wide – with a 4’ wide door. For this reason, we don’t often see or recommend to use a wall stiffener for a horse stall front.

That being said, we almost always recommend to add a wall stiffener to a horse stall partition. This will help add much needed rigidity to your partition.

02
Do I need a wall stiffener on both sides of the horse stall partition?

This decision is ultimately a client’s personal preference. That being said, we do recommend to install two (2) wall stiffeners on both sides of a given horse stall divider. This helps provide a uniform aesthetic while providing extra rigidity.

Real Experiences with American Stalls

Dixon, MO


“The sales and shipping process was very easy! I actually reached out to the American Stalls team via Facebook to inquire about shipping times and they were very fast in their response and made sure my gates were sent out the next day. The product is high quality from the very start and has held up over time as well. When I first installed full size gates in my modest two stall barn, it instantly elevated the look of the stalls from a homemade project to professional job. The gates LOOK expensive. I was looking for a gate that was safe, well ventilated, and had a yoke for my horses’ heads to hang over. The full size gate ticked all the boxes. I love the construction, feel, and shine of the powdered coated steel, and they clean up so easily too! I couldn’t be happier with my gate choice.

The customer support also delivered high-quality service. They were very responsive both before and after the delivery. I had questions regarding shipping times before purchase and I received responses within 24 hours that put my mind at ease. They even worked with me to expedite my shipping in order to meet my desired timeframe. After delivery I received a lovely note in the mail thanking me for my patronage – a sweet touch that made me feel very valued!

I would recommenced American Stalls without a doubt! My AS stall fronts are beautifully constructed and always received compliments. I’m always sure to tell them where they came from and how much I love them! Every barn should have such high quality materials!

“We’ve been buying the Show Series portable stalls from American Stalls each year from the past four years. We’ve expanded our polo operations here in The Plains, VA and have needed more and more high-quality portable horse stalls. Our oldest stalls from American Stalls still hold up great even after years of usage. The newest portable stalls are (bought in May 2020) are especially well done and reveal a very high end product — including their welds, powder coat finish, and other key details. The newest stalls show American Stalls’ heavy investment in their commitment to their product quality. Thank you for a great product and a great customer experience!” – David McClung

Another happy horse (Phil) with his new American Stall half-sized stall gate here at Templar Farm LLC… Phil loves his stall guard. It is beautiful… These gates are very easy to install and only takes about 5-10 mins.”

Dear American Stalls staff, thank you so much for a quick and uncomplicated handling of our two orders of stalls! Shipping was fast and the product arrived at our property in promised high-quality condition. The entire Passion for Polo team and the horses are enjoying the stalls! Keep up the awesome work, American Stalls.

Passion for Polo
Barrington, IL

As the owner of a large miniature horse sanctuary, we are often finding our needs to be met, somewhat challenged. Most equine operations gear towards full-sized horses. We then have to either adapt products or have them customized to fit our needs. However, when we found ourselves in need of a quarantine stall with relatively little advance notice, American Stalls not only fit the bill, but came through with flying colors.
The turnaround time to receive our order was super quick.

During the sales process, American Stalls made the decision-making process very easy and guided us with great information every step of the way. We love the look of the stalls and the high-quality materials. For portable stalls, they surprised us by how sturdy they are and we expect to use them for years to come. Overall, the team at American Stalls delivered superior customer support. We loved meeting Yash in-person even as he traveled through the Midwest and we were proud to show him our new facility. Lastly, I absolutely recommend American Stalls to any equestrian facility who cares about quality and professionalism. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to purchase our stalls from them.

Renew Therapeutic Riding Center
Holland, MI

Our new Elite Series miniature horse portable stall is everything we had hoped it would be and more! Safe, secure, and stylish it is extremely easy to move and assemble- genius, really! No tools required, no small parts to get lost in the shuffle… We chose to have two yoked gates so that the children and seniors we visit off-site can access the minis from both sides of the stall. We have high standards to follow…and your American Stalls’ portable miniature unit earns blue ribbons all around.

We just set up our new stalls for our 4-H Horse Camp and the kids and parents all loved them. They were very excited about the bars allowing for plenty of airflow as our old portable stalls were solid all the way to the top. The new stalls went together easier too! The presenters at the horse camp were so impressed they asked where we got the stalls from and are thinking about purchasing some of their own.

Working with American Stalls was a pleasure. The representatives were extremely cordial and responsive and attentive to our needs. They assisted us with all aspects of the transaction both professionally and thoroughly. Any inquiries made were met with a more than timely response.
The portable stalls assemble quickly, go together easily and have withstood a full year of shows with no visible wear and tear, a true testament to their durability. The stalls are both attractive and durable as has been proven by the number of horses that have been in and out of the stalls. Their website contains loads of pictures, and the information is very representative of the product; a good quality product with good customer service.

Thank you for your help finding the right gates for our older barns. You sent great sample photos and reassured us the gates are sturdy and well built. The gates arrived well packaged with no damage. The design is excellent and they installed more easily than any other stall gates we’ve had. The quality is excellent and promises years of safe, happy horses. Thank you!
