Gathering pen made out of pallets, with pallet gate. They see it as a fence with a gap in it and run in, especially if corned in there previously. Once inside, a way of funnelling them into a "trombone" arrangement. Pallet gate needs to be high, as once they know that's the way in they'll try and jump it to get out.
Delivered? What height to top rail on the sliding ones?
They look decent hurdles for that price, heavy but not too heavy.
Out of principle, I wouldn’t buy from anyone who spams groups the way he does.
Same, purely curious if anyone had bought it other things weren’t available etc…
I know a lad with a pile of them. Bloody good gates, make belting calf pens
Heavyish. Well made. Not light.
I got some stuff from him as well. Well made and good to deal with.8ft Sledge Hurdles
8ft Sledge Hurdles Suitable for sheep or cattle including 16mm pin, build strong with double centre bars Any questions please feel free to get in touchwww.mwengfab.com
I got these one from Mick and I love them.
They're tallest hurdles I have used and because they have the sledge ends they don't sink into the ground, but they still drag over rough ground well, even better than ones with a full bar along the ground, I find they catch on any bumps or clumps of rushes or grass.
Not as heavy as a lot of gates but certainly aren't going to spring or bend.
I tried the concertina ones but they are a bugger on uneven ground and I end up unpinning them anyway.
I won't tell you what I paid for them but definitely a lot less than the price listed above, Mick at MW is also good for a bit of price reductions.
He is and the stuff is good, just a shame he isn't selling more. It's the price of IAE's lightweight crap but 3 times the quality.
I put 12 of the gates on and probably over 750kg but only ever on back roads. The trailer without gates is definitely under. Not sure you could make the hydraulic lift and lower with brakes.
