Barn Raising Blog

We wanted a barrier between the horses, but also wanted them to be able to see each other. We also wanted something economical, yet attractive. We "ripped" these slats from leftover pieces (and good lumber too), carefully measured and installed them with wood screws. We knew they'd get chewed on a bit, but more on that later... We made them large enough so they couldn't be torn off the wall, and spaced so noses couldn't quite fit through either. They weren't nearly as difficult to install as we anticipated, and we have been very happy with the outcome.
