Beyond Aesthetics: Guerilla Steel, Australian-made custom horse stables

Advantage in Quality Materials and Transparent Pricing

Looks can be deceiving. A slick-looking arena setup might turn heads, but it won’t matter much if it warps after the first wet season or if the final invoice blows out with “extras” you thought were included. A good stable needs to do more than look the part; it needs to stand up to horses, weather, and time.

We’ve seen plenty of custom design stables with polished brochures that left clients underwhelmed once the panels hit the paddock. At Guerilla Steel, we take a different approach. We don’t just build steel stables that look strong; we build them to be strong. And we tell you exactly what that will cost for your customised Australian-made steel horse stable.

Let’s break down what makes a stable a smart investment, and why transparent pricing and tough materials matter more than a pretty façade.

Why “Affordable” Shouldn’t Mean “Cheaply Built”

What you’re really paying for

There’s a difference between a fair price and a false economy. Some stables might seem like a bargain, until you realise they’ve cut corners on steel thickness, skipped essential reinforcements, or left out the ventilation your equine companion actually needs.

Thin steel, basic welds, and low walls might save dollars upfront. But when the panels bend or rust, or your horse gets sick from poor airflow, those savings vanish. And let’s not forget the low rooflines that make feeding or mucking out a real chore.

Base Model steel horse stable setup

At Guerilla Steel, every standard build includes features others call upgrades:

• Heavy-duty galvanised steel frames welded for real strength
• 2.5m roof height for optimal ventilation in livestock environments, no stooping or sweating inside
• Mesh-top walls for ventilation and visibility in your equine facilities.
• Full-height ply kickboards to protect horses (not marine ply, but still hard-wearing and safe)
• 900mm roof overhangs are designed for weather protection and visibility in paddock shelters. 

These aren’t frills. They’re the basics you shouldn’t have to ask for.

Transparent Stable Pricing, No Surprises

What Guerilla Steel includes in a custom horse stable base price

You’ll find our pricing upfront:

• 4x4m Standalone Stable: From $4500
• 5x4m Stable: From $6100
• 5x5m Stable: From $7500

These are real prices for real builds, including fabrication of the frame, panels, gates, and expert guidance for site prep and delivery.

Compare that to hidden add-ons from others

Some competitors hook you in with a “base price”, but that often excludes roofing, gates, or even wall panel combinations for your custom stable block. That’s not helpful when you’re planning a build, especially in rural areas where access to quality materials matters for equine safety.

We’ll walk you through the full build cost before you commit. No vague quotes. No bill shock. Just clear info to help you plan with confidence.

Real Strength, Real horse stable Builds

Four-unit multi-bay stables with Tack Room

A real example: Australian-made steel horse stables with a 4-bay yard stable design.: This project showcases a 4-bay yard stable system, purpose-built with fully welded galvanised steel frames, 17mm ply kickboards, and heavy-duty mesh panels. Each 4x5m bay includes secure swing-gate access and half-height walls for airflow, visibility, and safe handling.

Delivered to the site and installed ready-to-use, this build came in at around $32,000, with all inclusions standard, not “extras.” No cutting, bolting, or missing components for peace of mind.

Designed for flexible use with horses and livestock, the modular layout also allows future additions such as wash bays or even more stables, ensuring the structure can grow with the property’s needs.

Stable designs built for paddocks, not just Instagram

Your horses won’t care about Pinterest boards. They need shelter, space, and safety. Our stables are made for mud, wind, and the daily hustle of rural life. High roofs, proper steel, and honest welds, that’s what gets the job done.

But What About Looks?

Sure, appearance matters. Nobody wants an eyesore near their house or fencing. But with Guerilla Steel, you don’t have to choose between good looks and strong bones.

Our modular systems have clean lines, consistent sheeting, and a sharp finish. But they’re not showroom props, they’re tough structures first, and tidy-looking second. You won’t be repainting them in six months or patching flimsy panels with tin.

Buy Once, Build Right – trusted by horse owners

If you’re weighing up stables, ask the right questions. What’s included in our customisable stable block options? How long will it last? What’s it built from? Does the builder even understand horses?

At Guerilla Steel, our stables are bigger,  we give straight answers, strong builds, and no surprise costs. Whether it’s a single bay or a full facility, we’ll tell you what you’re getting and what it’s worth.
