A Show Barn Dream Brought to Life – Truitt Stable
The Truitts partnered with Armour Horse Stalls with one goal in mind—to create a true show barn. Judging by the results, it’s clear they achieved exactly that.
Four of the stalls feature Armour’s Sliding Stall Door Superstructure, a design that allowed the Truitts to seamlessly incorporate their own lumber throughout the barn. By using leftover wood “drops” in the door bottom channels, they created a cohesive, custom look that ties every detail together.
Each Superstructure door also includes a Spring-Loaded Fold-Down Panel, giving horses the freedom to interact with the handsome brick aisle while maintaining safety and style—a perfect blend of function and elegance. With a special focus on comfort and airflow, Mrs. Truitt wanted to ensure her miniature horse had plenty of ventilation without sacrificing the barn’s uniform appearance. The solution? Armour’s Coolbreeze Sliding Door with Scuff Panel. Featuring closely spaced round pickets in the lower section, this design provides enhanced airflow while maintaining the same beautiful aesthetic found throughout the barn.
To further support a healthy, well-ventilated environment, dividing grille partitions are installed between each stall. This thoughtful design allows air to circulate freely throughout the barn while maintaining separation and safety for each horse. At the rear of each stall, Double Dutch Doors open to private, fenced pastures, offering convenience and easy access for both horses and handlers. The Truitts chose to keep the classic crossbuck design in its original orientation, as the doors are typically kept closed—another intentional detail in their overall design.
In Mrs. Truitt’s own words:
“We love our Armour Horse Stalls!”
