Product Overview The Modular Cattle Yard Panel & Gate System is a configurable livestock handling solution designed for cattle holding, sorting, drafting, processing and loading areas.

Heavy-duty steel panels and gates connect through quick pin-and-lug fittings, allowing complete cattle yards to be assembled in circular, rectangular, curved or project-specific layouts. The modular concept enables individual sections to be added, removed or repositioned as herd size and cattle-flow requirements change.

Panels, livestock gates, sliding gates, headbail sections, loading ramps and other handling components can be combined into a complete working yard suitable for commercial beef farms, dairy operations, ranches, feedlots and agricultural engineering projects.
Key Features
  • Complete modular cattle-yard system combining panels, gates and livestock handling components.
  • Quick pin-and-bracket connections simplify installation, dismantling and future expansion.
  • C-lug and L-lug connection options provide secure panel-to-panel joints.
  • Fully welded steel frame construction improves structural rigidity and durability.
  • Six-rail oval panel configuration provides a strong and highly visible livestock barrier.
  • Galvanized steel surfaces provide corrosion resistance for outdoor cattle environments.
  • Metal-capped structural tubes help reduce rainwater entry into hollow sections.
  • Permanent, semi-permanent and portable yard configurations are available.
  • Compatible swing gates, sliding gates, personnel access gates and handling equipment can be integrated.
  • Multiple panel quantities and yard diameters allow systems to be matched to different herd sizes.
  • Custom layouts can be designed for irregular sites, existing buildings and livestock-flow requirements.
Structural Components
  • Cattle Yard Panels: Six-rail steel sections form holding pens, sorting areas and perimeter fencing.
  • Livestock Gates: Swing gates provide animal entry, exit and pen-to-pen transfer.
  • Sliding Gates: Useful for race control and locations where swing clearance is limited.
  • Personnel Gates: Allow handlers to move between working areas without opening full-width cattle gates.
  • Connection Lugs: C-lug and L-lug fittings connect adjoining yard panels securely.
  • Drop Pins: Provide quick mechanical locking between modular components.
  • Structural Uprights: Square-section steel posts support horizontal oval rails.
  • Optional Headbail: Provides controlled animal restraint at the processing end of the system.
  • Optional Loading Ramp: Connects the yard with livestock transport vehicles.
  • Race and Drafting Components: Available for directing animals through weighing, treatment or sorting procedures.
Structural Principle The cattle yard is assembled from standardized panels, gates and handling modules connected through mechanical pins and welded lugs.

Livestock pressure applied to the horizontal rails is transferred through the vertical uprights and adjoining panels. Connected sections work together to create a stable enclosure while retaining the flexibility required for modular yard construction.

Gates are positioned according to cattle-flow requirements so animals can move progressively from receiving or holding pens into sorting areas, working races, restraint equipment and final exit or loading zones.

  • Check all pins and gate latches before livestock enter the system.
  • Anchor posts or high-pressure sections where additional restraint is required.
  • Provide adequate swing clearance for livestock and personnel gates.
  • Keep sliding-gate tracks and moving components clear of manure and debris.
  • Inspect rails, uprights, welds and panel connections regularly.
  • Check galvanized surfaces and repair damaged protective coatings when necessary.
  • Replace bent pins, damaged latches or structurally deformed panels before continued use.
  • Recheck the complete system after relocation, expansion or major yard reconfiguration.
Product FAQ

Q: What components can be included in the cattle yard system?
A: The system can include cattle panels, swing gates, sliding gates, personnel gates, races, headbails, cattle crushes, drafting equipment and loading ramps.

Q: Can the cattle yard be portable?
A: Yes. Quick pin-and-lug connections allow suitable configurations to be dismantled, relocated and reassembled.

Q: What is the reference cattle panel size?
A: The referenced six-rail panel is approximately 2100 mm wide and 1800 mm high.

Q: What is the reference livestock gate size?
A: A common reference gate is approximately 2000 mm wide and 2200 mm high.

Q: Can larger cattle yards be created?
A: Yes. Additional panels and gates can be added to increase holding capacity and create larger or more complex yard layouts.

Q: Can sliding gates be incorporated?
A: Yes. Sliding gates are useful for race control and other locations where swing-gate clearance is restricted.

Q: Can the system connect to a cattle crush and loading ramp?
A: Yes. Restraint, sorting, weighing and loading components can be incorporated into the overall cattle-yard design.

Q: Can the complete layout be customized?
A: Yes. Yard size, shape, panel dimensions, gate positions, race design and handling equipment can be configured according to herd size, available land and project requirements.
