We do! You can order a variety of custom add-ons, including steps, toolboxes, and more.

How Do I Care for a Finished Stall?
If you get your stalled coated/painted, it will be a tough job to keep it in top condition, but definitely not impossible.
One thing you can do is avoid hanging items, like halters, feed bags, and other equipment from the stalls. This keeps your chances of scratching the coat off much lower. If your horse is cribbing, you’ll want to address the issue not only for your stall appearance but the overall health of your horse.
If you do have scratches, tackle them as soon as you can. You’ll reduce further damage and hopefully cut down your work load for retouching.
What's the Best Way to Clean Your Stalls?
Our steel is much easier to clean than wood. On a well-ventilated day, empty out your stall and use your preferred gentle cleaner. (You can use a spray bottle or a bucket and sponge.) Let your cleaner sit for a couple of minutes and then scrub away. Rinse if necessary and dry the stall out to prevent potential rust.
If you have any wooden portions, you’ll need a good brush or sponge, and a gentle vinegar-based cleaner (patch-tested). Please be as careful as possible and make sure the wood dries completely. You may need to touch up the finish afterward, so keep that in mind before you start.
