Q: Are Carri-Lite Corrals durable and sturdy enough to contain my horse?A: Carri-Lite Corrals are made of very durable high impact engineering grade resin; these resins are strong and very resilient. These panels have been put under many tests including freezing and extreme impacting with hammers onto concrete with no material failures, no bending, denting, or cracking. These corrals come with a 1 year manufacturer warranty.
Q. Many of the aluminum panels and steel panels will become bent after a forceful impact, affecting their function and ability to store. How do the Carri-Lite Corrals react to a forceful impact?
A. Keeping in mind that all the panels we are talking about are portable panels, "high impact" engineering grade resin is just as it is described. Due to the fact that it is very resilient, it can take an impact and keep it's shape.
Q: How do you transport corrals, many portable corrals require hangers to be mounted on outside of trailer or taking up a stall inside the trailer?
A: Carri-Lite Corrals were designed for "portability" and "take anywhere". The collapsed corral can be put into bed of truck, back seat, tack area, just about anywhere a large suitcase would fit. Eliminating outside hangers/panels on trailer required to transport corral and prevent tying a horse to trailer where these hangers/corrals are mounted or taking up a stall inside trailer.
Q: Do Carri-Lite Corrals stand alone or do they require attachment to trailer?
A: Carri-Lite Corrals can do both. They come with (4) small (1 1/2"x 3") brackets that attach corral to trailer. The unique locking pins keep geometric shape of corral when using as a stand alone corral or attached to trailer.
Q. Do Carri-Lite Corrals need to be anchored to ground when using as a stand alone corral to preventing horse from dragging panels or lifting panels?
A: Since Carri-Lite Corrals do not streamline or uncouple, combined with the approximate 15 lb. weight of each panel and the friction between the open tubing and ground, make it very difficult for a horse to drag corral. However, if staying in one place for an extended period and having a mischevious horse, a stake kit is supplied to fool proof corral.
Q: What kind of maintenance is required for the corral?
A: The corral is maintenance free. Designed for years of service, the high impact resins will not crack, chip, or rust. Cleans up like new with soap and water.
Q: How safe is the plastic panels compared to the aluminum or steel panels?
A: In the event that a horse should spook, a plastic impact would cause less injury to the animal than aluminum or steel, yet be resilient. This round tubular design has no sharp corners, greatly reducing a contusion injury in severity.
Q: Can Carri-Lite Corrals be used for Miniature Horses?
A: Yes, we custom drill the end post for different panel height, and if connecting to trailer, usually a ½ unit or (4) panels will be a sufficient area for a small horse to rest.
