Down the road..........Which would you rather own?
When buying horse stalls, stall buildings, gates and arenas, there is only one way to look at it – short term costs versus long term costs.
Although painted equipment and pregalvanizedequipment seem to be an economical choice, you usually end up paying more in the long run. Get a higher return on your investment. Invest in Triton hot dip galvanized after fabrication equipment. Hot dip galvanized seals in the strength by bonding metallic zinc to steel for the ultimate protection from corrosion.

Triton stalls and stall barns are Hot Dip Galvanized after fabrication which allows the parts to be galvanized on the outside where you see it and on the inside where the rusting process starts in painted and pre-galvanized panels. We galvanize according to ASTM A-123 specifications, which requires a minimum 98% zinc coating.
Our track and trolley system is maintenance free. The track is galvanized and the trolleys are made from high strength “Delrin” material.
Triton Stall Systems offer Hot Dip Galvanized Stalls and Barns. Our stalls are based on modular design which provides the user maximum flexibility in laying out your barn the way you want it.
The stalls are designed with the safety of both horse and owner in mind.
All panels are heavy walled, solid welded one piece frame construction.
With our “can do” attitude, if you can dream of it we can build it.
Many options are available and your custom ideas are always welcome.
Facts about hot-dip galvanizing
- Using zinc to protect steel from corrosion (hot-dip galvanizing) is a 150-year-old practice!
- Corrosion is caused by the inherent tendency of metals, when subjected to air and moisture, to revert to their original earthly forms, usually an ore state. They do this through a chemical or electrochemical reaction with the environment.
- Galvanizer’s kettles (GalvaSource) are set at temperatures ranging between 815 F and 850 F (435 C to 454 C).
- Zinc seals the underlying steel from contact with its environment. If the steel is exposed to the elements due to mechanical damage, the surrounding zinc corrodes sacrificially, protection the underlying steel from corrosive attack.
- The zinc coating on galvanized steel is uniform: inside, outside, corners and edges.
- The hot-dip galvanized reinforcing steel bond with concrete is at least as great as the bond of bare steel to concrete.
- Hot-dip galvanized steel lasts longer today than it did 20 years ago. Because of environmental laws, our air is cleaner and less contaminated with corrosive emissions.
- Corrosion annually costs the U.S. economy 3.2 percent of the gross national product, over $279 billion. Indirect costs to the public could raise the percentage to as much as 6 percent. Some indirect costs of corrosion are: lost productivity due to traffic delays, accidents caused by corroded hand and guardrails, excessive use of nature’s raw materials.
