Monitor Modular Horse Barn

Our monitor modular barns are a favorite, here at Horizon. This modular barn is essentially three separate "boxes", one for each side of the aisle and a third creating the roof. The monitor barn's upper level is built in the workshop and shipped complete (or pre-fabricated), just like the sides. The for is then set up above the aisle with a crane, or forklifts.

One advantage of the monitor barn style is that we can install windows along the sides of the loft, giving the monitor exceptional ventilation and light. As with the high profile, a monitor modular barn can have a full loft, partial loft, or no loft.
