The gates in this shed are cheapo farm and fleet ones and after 5 years are already starting to fall apart. If I take them out and put guardrail in for pen dividers what spacing and how many do I want as far as height? The pens are 16' wide, is guardrail going to kill my airflow? This building is used for anything from 350# to 800#. Thanks
Eta this is just for inside the building, the outside gates will stay the way they are.
I would use heavy freestanding panels.
Guard rail is good stuff but I think your wanting to keep the air flow is an excellent idea.
Make some kind of pin receiver for the back wall for where you want the connection and then I would drop a hole through the concrete at about the panel leg and drop a pin into the hole.
Then chain the pin and panel together.
That way if they start getting rammy they're not shoving the panels all over and busting up stuff.
If you get heavy panels they should last you for the rest of your career and still likely be worth something at your retirement auction! |
