Pay attention to this when buying a horse stable
At WIKO, we specialise in building customised horse stables. Do you want to buy a horse stable? Then keep these 3 things in mind. That way, your horse will have a comfortable home.
1. Size of the stable
The horse stable you are going to buy should of course provide enough space for your horse. Below, we give you an overview of the approximate space a horse needs:
- A horse with a shoulder height of up to 1.55 metres needs a floor area of at least 9 square metres
- A horse with a shoulder height of 1.55 to 1.64 metres needs a floor area of at least 9.60 to 10.75 square metres
- A horse with a withers height of more than 1.75 metres needs a minimum floor area of 12.25 square metres
2. Light
Are you going to buy a horse stable? Then pay attention to the incidence of light. A completely dark stable is not good for horses. Therefore, buy a stable with windows or light panels. That way, at least part of the floor is flooded with light. On the other hand, a stable with too many windows or windows on the sunny side is also not recommended. When the sun is directly on the windows, it can get very hot in the house. This, of course, is not pleasant for the horse. In that case, buying a stable with shutters for the windows is a good solution. This way, the windows can be closed when needed.
3. Not too much dust
Once the stable is set up, it is important that the horse gets enough fresh air without being in a draught. This way, the horse is less likely to develop diseases. So make sure the stable is well ventilated so that it does not get too dusty. It is important to think about this before you buy the horse stable. You can also use wood shavings instead of straw. This will release less dust. What can also help against dust: dampen the straw before mucking out the stable.
