Lucas Equine Equipment
From the small, homey barns, to unimaginable elegance, Lucas Equine has 42 years of success in manufacturing the highest quality horse equipment in the world!
About Lucas Equine Equipment
With a history rooted in horse stalls,
Lucas Equine Equipment takes its name from Mr. Lucas who started a company in Cynthiana that built paddock gates for the local horse farms in nearby Lexington, Kentucky. Then, in 1981, Dana Looker purchased Mr. Lucas' business and, with a three-man welding shop, set a goal to provide the local market with quality, custom manufactured gates, doors and grills.
Architects and builders quickly picked up on
Lucas Equine Equipment’s unique expertise in building horse stall components that met the demanding specifications of the local farm owners. With the support of these building professionals Lucas Equine Equipment's growth exploded to 31 full time employees, a 70,000 square foot facility and a reputation for excellence that is unparalleled manufacturing today.

Our Partitions Are Designed To Fit The Needs Of You and Your Horses!
Lucas Equine designs and builds
horse stall partitions in a variety of configurations. They are always built to your exact specifications and measurements. Our stall partitions are designed to be both beautiful and functional. There are many design options available, and the design of your partitions should be based on three things:
• The temperament of your horses
• The primary use of your stalls
• The climate in your area.
Is It True I can Mix, Match or Even Customize Stall Doors?
YES! At Lucas Equine, you can mix and match the option you like to create a custom door that's just right for your barn. We can design a hinged stall door or sliding stall door. You can add grills to mount to a contractor-built wall to create a built-in stall for your barn.
Every single Lucas Equine stall door and each steel grill insert is built to order, to your exact specifications. You'll find
Lucas Equine Stall Doors to be the most heavy duty and highest quality stall doors available anywhere. If you're looking for full panel system stall fronts, check out our pages on
