    • Adjustable stable door hinges

      Our mobile field stables come with adjustable door hinges, allowing for easy repositioning and low maintenance whenever needed.

    • 4×2” roof purlins in prefabricated steel joist hangers

      Our mobile field shelters use 4×2” Tanalised® timber roof purlins with robust steel joist hangers, providing exceptional durability and resistance to wind and snow loads.

    • Galvanised, barred stable windows with sliding Perspex cover

      Our low-maintenance, durable stable windows feature a sliding Perspex cover, allowing easy ventilation control to keep your horse comfortable year-round.

    • Roof lining

      Enhance your mobile field shelter with roof lining to extend the Onduline roof’s lifespan, prevent sagging, and improve winter insulation.

    • Tanalised® timber

      We use high-quality Tanalised® timber in our mobile field shelters for exceptional durability and protection against insects and fungal decay.

    • Stable ventilation

      Our mobile field shelters include a high-positioned louvre vent to improve airflow while blocking wind-driven rain.

    Heavy-duty, galvanised steel skis for mobile stables

    We exclusively use galvanised steel skis on our mobile field shelters, ensuring they won’t rust and can last 30-40 years.

    The preparation for the process involves:

    • An inspection
    • Degreasing
    • Pickling
    • Fluxing

    Our galvanisation process involves loading materials onto jigs before immersing them in molten zinc at around 450°C, forming zinc/iron alloys. This process meets EN ISO 1461 standards and is carried out by a trusted CE-accredited supplier we’ve partnered with for over 20 years, ensuring optimal results.

    We can also use centrifuge/spin galvanising for enhanced protection. To know more about our mobile field shelters, call us on 01233 740944 or email us at info@nationalstables.co.uk.

    What is the difference between a field shelter and a mobile field shelter?

    When deciding on the type of field shelter you need, consider these two key differences:

    • Mobility

      A mobile field shelter is built on metal skis for easy repositioning, making it ideal for rotating fields or overcoming planning permission challenges for fixed stables.

    • Expandability

      A fixed field shelter can be extended in the future, while a mobile one cannot, offering peace of mind for novice equestrians as their needs evolve.
