Pull down wind breaks for calf shed?

[ColinV6]

Our calves are in a fairly open fronted shed, with 3, 15ft openings between pillars. Up until now we can block the worst of the wind using straw bales, but I’d ideally like to find some sort of pull down sheeting which acts as a wind break to keep them much warmer when the wind hits direct into the shed.

I’ve googled but can’t find the sort of thing I’m after? What I have in my head is a roller sheet, which pulls down and sits under a bracket. Simple and low maintenance. Any help or other suggestings or pics of your own would be very welcome.

Had come across them but ideally need something that can be rolled up in a few seconds and it seems them have to be fitted in sections and ratchets strapped on.

They do, and they work well. I had a giant spring loaded one as well as a windup version, although I am not sure if teh windup is still going?

@Great In Grass provides an excellent service. The fold up ones work well and are massively cheaper than the roller blind ones.

We have 15 ft galebreaker roller screens on cubicle house and very pleased with them. Pull down in seconds and they retract back up when you unfasten them.

Do they do 20ft wide fold up ones and could you do bottom up instead top down? Was thinking for the side of a new calf shed as those automatic curtains are a bit pricey.

Thanks I’ll have a look on your website. Just been having a measure up. It’s 15 foot between the stachions and 4M would take it from the top sheets to the ground...

Very simple, what roughly is the price of a 15ft roll up windbreaker? 6ft/8ft high etc. I’ve 7 feed bays to do for a new shed which is nearly finished. Windchill blowing in yesterday would have made you cry. Thought I wouldn’t need them but yesterday changed my mind.
