Outdoor Arena Panels

4011 Views 6 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  beau159
Wondering if anyone could make some recommendations about using arena panels for an outdoor arena - specifically if they should be reinforced with posts (wood or t-posts)? I'm planning a 120' x 200' outdoor riding arena using primarily 16' Powder Mountain/Creek panels. I'm not sure if the panels alone will stand up straight or if I should plan to install posts at certain intervals for support? I would rather not if I can help it. Any thoughts, suggestions or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Won't that be quite expensive? Would think some sort of regular fence would look better and be more economical.

I have seen horses go through those panels and it is not a pretty sight. Have seen legs hung up and even one caught around the mare's neck and she went running with it hanging off.
