Internal Stables

Internal stables are Stable Fronts and Partitions designed to be installed into an existing barn. The Cheval Liberté internal stables enable existing buildings to be partitioned and converted into indoor horse stabling. Our flexible range is ideal for converting a redundant agricultural building into high quality internal equine housing, whether that be for personal use or as a revenue-earning decision. Indoor stables are also a popular choice for livery yards, veterinary practices and all keen equestrians.

Our range of internal stabling is unrivalled for strength, durability and practicality in design and construction. The erection of the stable fronts and stable partitions is straightforward and will cause minimum fuss and disruption. We also offer standard and bespoke sizes to cater for all apertures and requirements. Our extensive knowledge and experienced installation team mean we always provide a stable layout that optimises your space. All our customers are valuable to us, whether it’s one replacement front, a couple of stables or a brand new livery set up; we work with every customer personally and effectively.

We have two key ranges of Internal Stables, Club and Prestige. Each of the ranges is made up of various styles of frontages to suit your horses, budget and aesthetic preferences. Both ranges provide exceptional strength, durability and unbeatable practicality in assembly, installation and operation.

  • Club range presents longevity and functionality at affordable prices.
  • Prestige range provides the ultimate in internal horse stables and gives your stables class and distinction.

All our Internal Stables are available in pressure treated Pine wood, Oak or Denya hardwood or coloured recycled plastic.

FAQ's

What is the delivery time on Cheval Internal Stables?

How quickly we can deliver your new internal stabling will depend on the time of year and if we hold stock of the design that you require. We hold a large stock of the most popular internal stable partitions and frontages in the UK.  If it is not in stock then availability of the components and raw materials can affect the speed with which we can supply the products. We always suggest that you give us a call then we can give you a more exact time.

How much do internal stables cost?

The cost of internal stabling can start from as little as £1000 if you just want a simple frontage and partition in the corner of a existing building and you install it yourself. This can go up to tens of thousands for a more complex project for housing multiple horses.

Prices for many of our partitions and frontages are shown on this site in our catalogue. Select the material, width and number of stable panels that you think you need and add them to your shopping basket to get an indication of the total cost of your project. You can then request a more detailed quote or contact us to discuss the details.

What are the options for feeders with Cheval Internal Stables?

Our internal stabling can be supplied with a number of options for feeding. Some are shown below. See more details on our stables accessories page or contact us for more information.

What type of door bolts are standard on the internal stables, and can I select other options?

As standard our Club internal stables, with hinged doors, come with a sliding bolt at the top and a kick bolt at the bottom. This is similar on the Prestige however the top bolt is recessed.

Does my horse need a stable?

A well-constructed and maintained stable can offer your horse a place of safety that it finds comforting as well as protection from the weather.  It also enables you more control of your horses’ diet and their environment. Ultimately the requirement for a stable depends on the preferences and needs of your horse. Read more in our blog post here.

Internal Stable Infills

We offer a range of different Infills, each encased in a steel frame for strength and durability, with their own unique characteristics.

Tanalised Pine – Pressure treated, with 40mm wide timber (which is thicker than most competitors) Pine is our most popular option. However, as with all wooden products, customers need to bear in mind that this is a natural product. Therefore, in extreme heat conditions the wood could naturally shrink or swell. Should this occur, we supply complimentary replacement planks upon request, which can easily be replaced by the customer. We can also provide crib plates on the doors for extra protection against any nibblers on the yard!

Recycled Plastic – An environmentally friendly, hardwearing and durable option, especially for using with washrooms as they are waterproof and easy to clean.  We wouldn’t recommend using them in a project which involves direct sunlight as the plastic can warp over time. However, they are completely maintenance free, resistant to acids and salts and very robust. Available in black, brown, green, grey and beige you can really personalise your yard to your own tastes.

 

Hardwood (Oak or Denya) – The ‘creme-de-a-creme’ of infills! Oak is durable and long lasting whilst providing the distinctive touch of class to any stable yard.

Can I put feed in without opening the door?

Our Club Range Internal Stables come with a feeding hole in the front panel as standard. This is the perfect width for feeding buckets to be hooked onto, or for dropping hay into hay mangers to allow for feeding from outside the stables where necessary.
It also makes a great pop hole for a quick goodnight kiss!

Do you need planning permission for internal stables?

With internal stable you aren’t actually building a new infrastructure and this often tricks people into thinking planning permission may not be necessary. One thing you must be aware of is the need to declare a change in use. Unfortunately, stabling does not easily fall into the category of permitted development rights, that agricultural buildings generally do.

“A change of use of land or buildings requires planning permission if it constitutes a material change of use. There is no statutory definition of ‘material change of use’; however, it is linked to the significance of a change and the resulting impact on the use of land and buildings. Whether a material change of use has taken place is a matter of fact and degree and this will be determined on the individual merits of a case. If planning permission is required for change of use, there may be permitted development rights which allow change of use without having to make a planning application.” GOV.UK, 2019.

Customer Feedback


Five Stars

I cannot thank Arwel and his team at Cheval Liberté enough for my amazing stable. From the first contact by email, a quote was sent through the same day, the stables were supplied on the day they were expected. Arwel always answered the phone when discussing options. Overall a pleasure to deal with a reasonable company. If we could give more stars, these guys would get a 10! Thanks Beth Vernon for the recommendation.
