Corral Panels: Sturdy Pens to Hook Together
Corral panels are framed metal hurdles that you hook together to form a pen. In a short time you have a paddock, a sick pen, a catch pen or a lunging ring. Unlike an electric fence, the panels need no current and hold animals back through their sturdiness alone. That makes them the first choice when a horse needs rest after an injury or cattle need sorting. They are just as useful on a small yard as on a large livestock farm.
What Panels Are Good For
Panels are ideal for anything that should stay portable. You put them up wherever you need them and clear them away again in autumn. For horses they make paddocks and round pens, for cattle and sheep holding pens and races. A gate built into the set makes access easy. With a pasture tent or field shelter, your animals also get shelter from sun, rain and wind. Many owners keep a few spare panels on hand for those days when something unexpected comes up.
Stability and Connections
The panels are hooked together with pins, chains or connectors. Depending on the shape of the pen, the joints run straight, at an angle or in a circle. To stop the pen from creeping in wind or when animals crowd it, anchor it with ground anchors or fix individual panels to walls and floors. A kick guard along the bottom stops foals, calves or goats from getting their legs caught between the rails.
Frequently asked questions
How many corral panels do I need for a paddock?
Divide the perimeter of the paddock you want by the length of one panel. For a square pen of 3 x 3 m, for example, four panels are enough, one of them with a gate.
Can I set up corral panels on hard ground?
Yes, panels stand on their feet on concrete or paving too. For extra hold, connect them with wall and floor brackets or weigh down the feet.
Are corral panels safe for horses?
Panels with rounded corners and no sharp edges are well suited to horses. What matters is that they are high enough and firmly connected, so nothing shifts when a horse leans against them.
Corral Panels for Paddocks and Training
Complete pens with a gate come as Corral Panel Sets, which you set up without any calculating. Sheep Hurdles are light and work well for sheep and goats. For lunging and groundwork you can build a Round Pen from panels. Protection from sun and rain comes from Field Shelters & Pasture Tents, which you set up right on the pasture. Connectors, ground anchors and kick guards are in Corral Panel Accessories. A few parts give you a pen that suits your animals and your yard exactly.
