New Cluster Free Stalls
Cluster Free Stalls are easily installed in new or
remodeled barns. The free stalls “hanging” from
barn rafters provide many advantages to help keep
cows safe and healthy. By using suspended free
stalls, cows are less likely to obtain bruises. Thus
all their energy can be concentrated towards
increased milk production. The design of the stall
allows it to swing up, down or back out of the way of
the cow. Because they swing freely, the stalls can
withstand the force of animal contact. And because
they are powder coated, they require little mainte
nance.
