Best place to order stall front hardware? (Doors, grills, etc)

Postby Amado » Fri Oct 07, 2016 1:01 pm

We are building a barn, and I need to order the stall front hardware (door tracks and feed doors and the grills that you put together with the wood you buy separately ). I'm trying to figure out where to order from - I'm in Maine, so it would be nice if it was on the east coast. Have any of you done this?

I know I have a bunch of references from our barn building experience in 2008; will need to look them all up again. I think this company supplied the stall components when we had a full-service company build our barn:

And here's another source. I didn't use these folks but you might check here too:

Also, I think Tractor Supply and perhaps some lumber stores are now carrying the roller tracks for hanging doors, plus many of the latches.

We used Tractor Supply for the door tracks and latches, but found it to be much cheaper and sturdier to not use grills or kits. We just made our own stall front and door grills with lumber and conduit. Compared to kit built stalls/panels at past boarding barns, the "bars" on ours set in holes that are a bit deeper, so we can slide them out if we want to, but they won't be accidentally popping out all the time.

Unless you need to order immediately, Equine Affair is in just a few weeks down in Springfield, MA. They normally have a lot of vendors and you might even be able to buy some there at a discount. Also, Ramm Fence has periodic sales and carries that sort of thing I believe.
