FCP Features & Benefits – Custom Hybrid Workshop Barn
Fire Safety
Steel is naturally resistant to fire, making steel structures safer than traditional wood or other combustible materials. The steel-lined wall panels and dividers in our barns prevent fire spread, making them darn near fireproof. Something every horse owner can appreciate.
Kick-Proof & Chew-Proof
Steel-lined wall panels provide the confidence and safety features that your horses will not be able to kick through the stall walls, which can cause injury, or digest harmful bacteria harboring wood and splinters.
Low Maintenance, Safe Environment
Non-bacteria-harboring wall panels are low maintenance and are easily sanitized to prevent disease. No sharp edges or rusty nails – means no cuts, pulled manes, or tails.
