Has anyone seen a 12’ or 14’ gate that includes a walk thru section (gate within a gate)? I’m thinking of ways to divide my run-in into three sections (for temporary “stalls”), and was envisioning a gate which would divide the space, but would still allow me to be able to walk a horse through without moving the whole panel. Does that make sense (probably not… )?
I could see how you might design a 12’ gate with a narrow human gate in it with a rail to step over at the bottom, but if you want to lead a horse through it sounds like you either want a well installed gate so opening it is easy, or two 6’ gates so you can open half.
I guess you could do it if you really wanted to and were ok with horses stepping over a bottom rail but it does not seem like a good idea. You’d need a very heavy bottom rail to cut that much structure out of the gate and not have it flex.
I just got a panel with a 4’ gate. the same type that they use for round pens. When I used theses for stalls I just zip strapped a sheet of plywood to them so the horses couldn’t put their leg through when laying down.
