Cattle Grids Dubbo
Dubbo Cattle Grids
Cattle grids are only as good as the gear around it - and Ballimore Welding builds them to last. Our Dubbo-made cattle grids are heavy-duty, easy to install and backed by smart design that keeps livestock where they belong.
Heavy-duty build
Each grid measures 4000mm long by 2000mm wide and is built with full-width support to handle vehicle traffic and livestock weight. It's a reliable, low-maintenance alternative to manual gate systems.
3-Rail Wing Design
Welded with 115 x 42 cattle rail, our side wings provide extra strength and visibility. The 3-rail configuration keeps stock out without blocking airflow or paddock sightlines.
Practical Safety Features
Quick-release latches and dual back gates make setup and access simple. These features are designed for easy operation in real-world conditions - especially when you’re working solo.

Smart Solutions For Stock Control
Cattle grids are essential for managing paddock boundaries and vehicle access. Ours are fabricated onsite using Australian steel and designed to suit local conditions—whether you're installing across a main entry, laneway or internal access track. They're strong enough for trucks, utes and day-to-day stock pressure.
Our team also supplies matching gates and attachments to integrate your grid with fencing or yard systems. Every weld, latch and rail is built for rural use, so you spend less time on repairs and more time getting the job done. Call 0428 323 208 for advice or a custom setup that suits your property.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size cattle grid do I need for rural property access?
The most common size for rural driveways is 4000mm long by 2000mm wide, which suits most utes, trucks, and trailers. This size provides enough clearance for wide vehicles and secure coverage for livestock control. If you're installing the grid on a main entrance, width is critical - not just for access, but to prevent cattle from jumping or sidestepping the grid. Also consider the weight rating and whether you’ll be running machinery or heavy loads across it. A solid base and strong welds are just as important as dimensions, so make sure you're not buying on size alone.
What are cattle grid wings and do I need them?
Wings are side attachments that prevent stock from walking around the edges of the grid. Without them, clever cattle can easily find a way past. A 3-rail wing made from 115 x 42 cattle rail offers excellent strength and visibility without fully enclosing the area—giving animals a visual and physical barrier. Wings are especially useful in open areas or places where fencing doesn’t naturally meet the grid. They also save time and reduce the need for extra fencing work down the track.
Are quick-release latches safe for livestock and vehicles?
Yes, quick-release latches are designed to make handling gates easier without compromising security. They allow you to open and close adjoining gates quickly when you're moving stock, but they still hold firm under pressure. In real-world farming situations, speed and safety matter. If you're working alone or moving multiple mobs through the same area, a reliable latch system can save serious time and hassle. It's also easier to maintain than complex locking mechanisms that rust or jam after a bit of weather exposure.
