Hancox Loose Boxes

When we developed our loose boxes, we focused on creating a product that combines strength, durability, and high-quality design. Constructed with robust materials, these loose boxes feature our signature stable doors with hinged windows at the back and a fixed 6-blade louvered window at the front for superior ventilation. Fully equipped with excellent airflow, including ventilation through the ridge, windows, and doors, they ensure a constant supply of fresh air. The carefully designed roof pitch allows stale air to escape, maintaining a healthy environment for your horse. Unique to Hancox, a galvanised steel plinth replaces the traditional single row of bricks, which can become dislodged and eventually break up. This innovation allows us to have more control over the build, offering reassurance that your loose box will remain secure and long-lasting. Safe, secure, and built to last, Hancox Loose Boxes provide the ideal space for your horse, backed by the peace of mind that comes with our quality craftsmanship.
