Space boarding above doors, how is it done?

[Macsky]

How is the space boarding installed above the doors in situations like this? Are they removable sections, or do they swing?

 

[Bobthebuilder]

we have both swinging sections (cattle shed) and hook on sections on (sheep shed)

Do you just lift them off with the loader? Quite like the idea, only need through when mucking out.

 

[Bobthebuilder]

yes, have a coupe of slots in them to fit pallet forks through, just normal gate crooks on shed and eye bolts on the frame, take a bit of lining up when you hook them back on but cant really see any easier way to do it to make them a tight fit to save them rattling, have the end sections on shed same width as single passage/pen and the ones in middle of shed are double width

They are on a metal frame with normal gate hinges at one end. Galebreaker do a roller screen which is also very good.

They look a lot tidier than gale breaker imo

Could you get a couple of pics up? I’m more of a visual learner

We’ve got similar on our cubicle shed. Hung from the top & pulled up with rope & a couple pulleys for each one. Bolt latch either side at the bottom to keep them in place. Been there nearly 40 years & still work as well as the day they were new.

A lot stronger as well, we used to have the galebreaker sheets and rollers didn't last 3 years

They break the gale until the gale breaks them

Any use
Side panel and hook arrangement

 

[Bobthebuilder]

Middle gaps (double width) and panels not on yet as never had a couple of extra pairs of hands to line them up yet

Swinging version on feed passage in open position

 

[Bobthebuilder]

As you can see the swinging ones are hung in inside of shed and fixed ones on outside, they don’t line up perfectly but saved faffing about with cranked hinges/hangers but it stops 99% of the weather
