Want more room in your horse stable but don’t want to start from scratch? A stable extension is a fast and smart way to grow your setup. Whether you need a day yard, a wash bay, or more stalls, our prefabricated horse stable system makes it easy. Built from strong Aussie steel, and modular panels, our stable blocks add new space without big mess or cost.
Why Prefabricated stable design is a Smart Choice for Your Horse
Prefab panels are quick to install. This saves time over building a full barn or shed. You get a quick quote and fast delivery. They’re great for equestrian buildings. Horse owners can choose what fits their stable best. Each extension is made to integrate with your existing stable block. The stable design stays neat and strong. Built with high-quality Australian steel, these stable extensions stand up to sun, rain, and wind.
They’re great outbuildings if you want to add a lofted tack room, more stalls, or even a mini garage.
Planning Your Equine Stable Expansion
- Before you build, take time to plan. It’s an important consideration for any stable project.
- Think about what you need. Are you adding more stalls? or a wash bay? This is your planning process.
- Make sure your ground is flat and firm. It helps the panels sit right. You’ll need space for delivery, too.
- Check with your local council. Adding an outbuilding or shed may require approval.
- Set a clear budget. Include cost of insulation, panels, add ons, delivery, and site prep.
- Design your stable to blend with your current look. This avoids a lower-quality patch job.

Real-World Examples from Horse Stables Across Australia
- Hobby Farm near Tambourine: Added two stalls in 48 hours. Used ply-mesh prefab panels.
- Riding School: Added tack and wash bays as a modular extension. Fitted seamlessly with their aesthetics.
- Foaling Block in Northern NSW: Used a prefabricated modification to their foaling shed amenity. Later turned it into a tack room, by swapping out the mesh panels with form ply.

Build smart, Build Bigger and Build Stronger with Guerilla Steel
Build Smarter: Custom Steel Horse Stable Panels That Grow With You
- March 27th, 2025
By: Guerilla Steel Team
The team behind Guerilla Steel brings decades of hands-on experience in steel fabrication, rural building, and equine property solutions. Based in Yatala, QLd, we build tough, smart, and optimised for horse comfort and welfare. – So you get horse stables & animal structures that work as hard as the people who use them.
Buying Guide, Stable Build Quality & Steel
- Flat Pack Horse StablesModular Horse Stable SystemPrefabricated Stable Frames
Building a barn or stable for your horses doesn’t have to be hard or expensive. If you run a rural block, hobby farm, or a growing equine property, you know how quickly costs and time can stack up. That’s why more Australian horse owners are turning to smarter solutions, like modular stable panels, to build safe, flexible, and lasting setups.
Let’s break down why modular equestrian facilities are changing the way Aussies build.
What Makes Our Australian Made Stable Panels Stand Out
Our horse stable panels are produced in Queensland using Duragal steel. That means they’re built tough for Aussie weather, sun, rain, wind, and mud. Every panel is prefabricated in our workshop, which cuts down on mess and mistakes on-site. And because we’ve been doing this a while, our modular stable system works. It’s already being used across barns and paddocks from Toowoomba to Northern NSW.
Whether you’re adding a one-horse stall or setting up a full horse barn, our stable design system is flexible. The panels can go in straight lines, U shapes, with breezeways, or facing each other, whatever fits your layout or suits your needs. Choose Ply Mesh combinations top and bottom, and add gates to the front stable panel or the sides. Modular construction also allows you to add tack rooms, feed bays, or grooming areas wherever you need them. We also provide roofing upgrades to enhance ventilation and offer anti-rearing sliding doors as additional features for your horses’ comfort.
Why Modular Stable Design Save Time and Money
Flexibility around everything from panel options to the number of bays, you construct a small shelter and upgrade to a stable or fully enclose as a secure tackroom or hay and feed room. That’s one of the biggest wins of our modular approach. And it’s a reason the Guerrilla Steel system is growing in popularity among equestrian enthusiasts. Start small, save money, and grow your setup over time.
This staged method:
- Keeps your upfront spend lower
- Allows future add ons without major changes
- Minimises waste and instal time
- Avoids disrupting your horses or property
Because each stable panel fits into the next, you can add stalls or extend the barn easily, with no surprises in cost or structure. We’ve had owners expand from one to four units over a few months. It’s a practical and smart way of managing a growing equine complex.
Horse Owners Story: From Two Stalls to a Full Equine Setup
Sarah in Ipswich had an urgent need; her shed was bare, and her horses needed cover fast. She called us, and we helped install a custom two-horse stable in just a few days. A few months later, she added a third and turned one into a tack room.
Today, her stable has grown to four units with room to grow. She has proper sliding doors, feed zones, and breezeways to manage daily care. By going modular, Sarah saved over $10,000 and avoided a full barn renovation.
This kind of smart functionality is what we create every week, and it works.
How to Plan a Modular Horse Barn or Portable Stable Setup
Every horse property is different. We always start with a quick chat to help you plan. We’ll measure your shed, paddock, or barn and look at airflow, drainage, and how you use the space.
Here’s what we often supply:
- Retrofit panels to existing sheds
- Choose from U-shaped, row or breezeway layouts
- Add tack rooms, wash bays, or amenities.
- Include pitched roofing, guttering and dutch stable doors
The key is to plan ahead. Are you considering adding a mare and foal box later? Or do you need to connect to a dressage arena in the future? No problem, our stable panels will match now and down the line, so every extension fits.
Good planning keeps costs down and ensures every new horse or feature can be added without starting from scratch.
Strong, Safe, Modular Construction Built to Last
We use galvanised steel frames with tough ply or mesh infills. Every component is quality checked and manufactured for optimial airflow, mud control, and safety. With a 2.5 m height, your horses get more air, space, and comfort.
Horse owners across Queensland and Northern NSW trust our stable designs. They’re low maintenance and designed for real paddock life. Rain or heat, your horses stay protected.
Add-ons like cladding, sliding stable doors, and gutter systems improve your setup so its solid, functional and durable. You don’t need to overspend to get a setup that lasts.

Have more questions about shed to stable retro fits or prefab panels ?
Can I start with one stable and add more or change the layout later?
Yes. That’s the idea behind our system. If you only have one horse, start small, then complete extra installations to suit. Many owners convert units to tack rooms or add wash bays and doors later.
Will prefab panels fit my current shed or barn?
Most likely. We can prefabricate to match almost any structure.
How long does it take to setup a Guerilla Steel Stable kit?
Small structure = one day. Larger units take a few days max, if your base is ready.
What materials are Guerilla Steel stables made from?
The materials used are Australian steel – galvanised and prefabricated in our Yatala workshop. The Stable Frames are RHS 50mm Steel tube and 4mm gal mesh on gates and upper panel sections. Ply inserts fit the lower panels (or can be custom fit for full ply upper and lower). Roof sheeting is Monoclad – again Aussie Steel and cut to fit. Check out our base model comparison page where you can find detailed specs and options.
Style is important, what if I want a Luxury High spec stable build?
You can have a luxury, high-specification stable with Guerilla Steels Modular System. Our builds don’t just tick the functional boxes (strength, durability, safety); they’re designed for easy upgradable premium finishes, thoughtful layout, and custom aesthetics that match high-end equine facilities.
You don’t have to imagine it, check out this Indoor Horse Stable Retrofit project, we transformed an existing space into a premium indoor stable setup Engineered strength with refined use of space and airflow. Or the 4-Bay Black Breezeway Retrofit is another great example of a high-spec build is this retrofit breezeway with a sleek black exterior that not only looks stunning but enhances usability for horses and handlers alike.
