Frequently Asked Questions

  • What finish is best to prevent rust in high-moisture areas?

    For livestock equipment exposed to moisture - like troughs, feeders or yard panels in flood-prone or coastal zones - fully welded galvanised steel is the go-to. It offers maximum corrosion resistance and won't flake or peel like painted finishes. Hot-dip galvanising is especially effective, as it coats the entire surface (inside and out) and chemically bonds with the steel. It's built to withstand mud, rain and long-term outdoor exposure without the need for constant touch-ups. Powder coating might look good initially, but once scratched, rust creeps in fast - making galvanised the smarter, longer-lasting option.

  • How do you anchor stockyard panels to prevent movement on uneven ground?

    Uneven terrain can make stockyard panels shift, bow or even collapse under pressure - especially with larger animals. Anchoring starts with choosing panels that have heavy-duty feet or ground pins. On sloped or rocky sites, it’s worth welding in stabilising bars or setting posts in concrete at key corners. Some setups use angled braces or integrated joiners to keep the yard rigid, even without a dead-flat base. Flexibility in your layout matters too - modular systems with adjustable connectors are better suited to rugged paddocks than fixed templates.

  • How can better feeder design reduce grain or supplement loss?

    Feeders designed with deep troughs, anti-rub bars, and weather guards can dramatically cut down on spillage, trampling and waste. Low-sided feeders might be easier for animals to reach, but they often result in feed being scattered and spoiled - especially in wet or windy conditions. Good designs funnel feed inward and create space for multiple animals without competition. For lick blocks, sturdy compartments prevent livestock from knocking them loose or pushing them into the dirt. The right design saves money over time by keeping more feed in the animal and less on the ground.
