Farm & Livestock Gates for Secure, Everyday Containment

Farm and livestock gates are a foundational part of safe, efficient animal management on farms, ranches, and rural properties. This category includes traditional gate styles designed for a wide range of livestock applications, offering reliable control of movement while maintaining easy access for daily chores, equipment, and vehicles.

Built for durability and frequent use, these gates are commonly installed at pasture entrances, driveways, pens, corrals, and paddocks. Their straightforward design makes them a practical, time-tested solution for managing livestock without complicated hardware or permanent barriers.

Versatile Gate Styles for Different Needs

This category includes several classic gate designs, each suited to specific containment and access needs:

• Round-shouldered gates for traditional pasture and field use with smooth, rounded corners
• Square shouldered gates for a clean, uniform fit in tighter or more structured layouts
• Hog gates are designed with closer spacing to help contain smaller livestock
• Bow gates that provide added strength and help discourage animals from leaning

Safer Alternative to Cattle Guards for Horses

While cattle guards are sometimes used to control livestock movement, they are not suitable for horses. Horse hooves can easily slide between the top rails if they try to cross, leading to serious injury. Traditional farm gates offer a much safer and more controlled option for horse containment, especially at driveways, lane crossings, and pasture entrances.

Using gates with horses instead of cattle guards allows property owners to maintain secure boundaries without compromising animal safety. Gates can be opened or closed as needed, making them ideal for mixed-use properties where horses, vehicles, and equipment all share access points.

Reliable Performance for Everyday Farm Use

• Helps keep livestock safely contained
• Provides controlled access for vehicles and equipment
• Suitable for pastures, corrals, pens, and driveways
• Simple, proven designs trusted by farmers and ranchers

Whether managing cattle, horses, hogs, or mixed livestock, farm gates remain an essential tool for maintaining safety, organization, and smooth daily operation across agricultural and rural settings.
