Your accessories bring all the horses to the barn

You are building the ultimate VersaTube barn. After extensive research and planning, you know that you would like some additions that make work and play even more enjoyable. Want a few ideas on ways to upgrade your space? Here are four exceptional barn accessories that all the coolest horses (and owners) have.

Tack Room

When planning and designing your barn space, a tack room area is a must-have for proper care and organization of saddles, bridles, bits, wraps, and other equipment. The convenience to horse grooming stations and stalls will minimize your time going back and forth for gear and maximize the time you get to spend with your horses. With thoughtful organization and planning, your tack room can become one of your favorite spaces in your barn.

In-Stall Watering

Watering your horses multiple times a day takes a lot of brawn. With in-stall watering, your horses will have 24-hour access to fresh, healthy water. The variety of wall- and stall-frame mounts mean the likelihood of water loss and clean-up due to purposeful or accidental tipping is minimized. Water meters mean you can also easily monitor each horse’s water intake.

Wash Bay Heater

Want to truly spoil your horses in the winter? Add an infrared wash bay heater. Your horse will dry quickly and be toasty during winter wash-downs. And infrared radiant heat only heats the horse under the heat source, not the entire barn. A portable option is also perfect for newborn foals. A relatively inexpensive treat, an infrared heater is easy to install and oh-so-enjoyable for your equestrian family.

The Ultimate in Equine Posh: Laundry

Did you know that your horses could have their own designated laundry area? It’s true! No lugging saddle blankets, winter wraps, or barn laundry up to the house. And no more horse hair caught in your home’s dryer. Owners who have a designated laundry area in their barn swear it’s a game-changer. All it takes is some electrical and water planning during the barn design process.

Give your equine guests the ultimate in luxury and livability. They’ll be comfortable and cared for, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing how user-friendly your incredible VersaTube barn design will be.
