General Steel - Advantages of Steel Riding Arenas

 

Most horse owners treat their horses as if they are part of the family. Our customers tell us they want riding arenas that are safe, durable, and have wide open space in which to ride their horses. General Steel riding arenas have been designed with your equine activities in mind. There are a number of advantages to steel riding arenas.

General Steel Riding Arena Advantages

  • General Steel riding arenas allow clear-spans up to 300 feet wide. This span is difficult to achieve on a cost effective basis with most other building materials and systems. With this clear-span building, there is no need for interior columns, giving you greater flexibility on the design and layout of your riding environment and more open space to safely ride your horses.
  • Since steel is highly resistant to water, mold, mildew, termites and other wood-destroying insects, a steel retail building will last longer and require less maintenance than other more conventional structures. Termites account for a high percentage of property damage each year. In recent years, a new breed of termite, the Formosan termite, has been detected throughout the country. These termites destroy wood faster and grow larger colonies than any other known termite species. Pressure treated lumber is not immune to their attack and insurance may not cover the repairs they cause. These termites are unable to cause any structural damage to General Steel riding arenas.
