10x14 Run In Description:
The 10x14 Run in shed offers added protection to pastured horses from wind, rain, snow, and summer sun. Picture this attractive run in shed out in your green rolling pasture. The sturdy rugged horse barn is designed for all of your livestock needs with years of heavy use.
Hand made in Vermont, from true 4x4 dimensional native rough sawn hemlock and pine lumber, the package includes all fastening hardware, metal roofing and step-by-step plans. Four heavy duty ¼ inch steel brackets included with this kit provide anchoring hooks on each corner. These hooks are designed to drag the little barn when rotating pastures. The design includes a 36" solid hemlock kick plate around the entire interior to prevent kicking damage. The interior rear wall height is over six feet tall, the front opening head clearance height is over seven feet.
Locate the shed on a site with good drainage so the horses do not stand in muck and dirty water. Avoid placing the shed in a low spot or at the bottom of a hill where water can accumulate. Place the shed so the open side is opposite the direction from prevailing winds, to provide shelter against cold arctic winds. Situate the shed out in the open, not under large trees that could be toppled by winds or ice.
Consider approaching the shed with a vehicle; place it in an easy and convenient location so feed, a farrier or a veterinarian may access the site. Footing inside the shed should be dry and cleanable. We recommend the building sit on a level 12x16 compacted crushed stone base 3 - 4 inches deep. Once the building is in place, lay rubber matting on top of the stone and add a bed of wood shavings, straw, or saw dust.
Rugged post and beam techniques passed down through the centuries are applied to pre-cut and notch this kit into a sturdy picturesque barn reminiscent of old New England. Designed for the beginner carpenter, the kit is color coded and part numbered matching a detailed exploded view. Discounts begin at orders of two or more. Contact us to discuss your needs.
