The Many Uses of a Carriage Garage - Not Just for Horses

A Carriage Garage is an ideal solution for providing cover for vehicles, gardening equipment, machinery, and even swimming pools. The all-weather Carriage Garage protects against the UK’s harsh winter climate while also providing shelter for swimming pools during the summer months.

The shelter can also be used as safe area for children to play in or ride their bikes and scooters, or the space can be used to store garden machinery, bikes, or garden furniture.The building can be used as a workshop all year round, and is particularly useful for carpenters, mechanics and gardeners.The building can be divided into two parts to utilise the space. One area can feature a closed shed where you can lock away boxes and other items, and the remaining area is perfect for housing cars and vehicles.

Whether it stands alone or is attached to a house, the Carriage Garage can be customised to meet your needs and designed to complement the surrounding environment. The structure can be made out timber frames, concrete, bricks, or stonework and can be partitioned or left as an open space. There a variety of roofs to choose from, including flat or sloped; slate, clay and felt tiles; or corrugated iron

A Carriage Garage is an alternative to a standard garage or driveway, allowing shelter for your car without the hassle of having to open up garage doors every time you drive in and out.For those looking to store vehicles such as motorbikes, cars and boats, the building can also have garage doors fitted for extra security.

While many people use a Carriage Garage for storage of personal goods, the area is also ideal for storing hay and horse boxes if space is limited. The building can be added to a paddock or erected in a field, enabling easy access to the horses.

Equestrian Stables for Business or Leisure

Equestrian Stables provide safe and secure shelter for horses, whether you run a riding school, livery or working farm. The stables can be built and customised to meet the needs of individual businesses, ensuring comfort and protection for the horses and owners.

When the weather is cold and windy during the winter months, the Equestrian Stables provide protection from the elements. The buildings can be well ventilated so horses can cool off from the sun and soaring temperatures in the summer.

The design of the equestrian stables depends on the number of horses you intend to have in the stables and you can choose from individual stalls with galvanised grates and doors, to open spaces where horses can mingle with each other.

The stables can be built from scratch or an existing building can be renovated. In both cases, planning permission is required if the building is being used to stable horses, even if the building is not physically altered. If you are located in a rural area, the buildings can be designed to blend in with the natural surroundings and mobile field shelters are perfect for paddocks. If you require hay barns, tack rooms, and storage for food and equipment, the stables can be built to accommodate these and more.

Many stables are built using renewable timber and sustainable materials and onduline roofs are a popular choice to provide protection against the changeable weather in the UK. Windows can be fitted at the rear of Equestrian Stables for additional ventilation while also giving horses a view when they are safe inside.

There are a wide range of Equestrian Stables to choose from and you can even design your own in order to match your budget, location and requirements. So whether you require Equestrian Stables for leisure or business, the combination of modern technology, traditional structure and high quality materials ensures a secure environment for your horses

Mobile Field Shelters

Mobile Field Shelters are a great way of providing instant shelter for your horses and ponies but without the need for planning permission or for breaking the ground. This is very important if the paddock you are using does not belong to you or if you are in a conservation area where gaining planning permission for a mobile field shelter is difficult.
