Windbreaks fix one bay at a time. Each strap carries a claw hook on one side and a ratchet on the other, so they need something suitable to hook onto. Hook and clamp the claw to one stanchion, run the ratchet across to the next at the same height, then thread and tighten the strapping so the mesh pulls drum tight. Work down strap by strap, and repeat across each bay on multi-bay openings. A full step-by-step fitting guide is supplied with every order.

Around three weeks from order in normal conditions, delivered across UK mainland. PLACEHOLDER: confirm carrier, delivery charge and returns policy before launch.

The problem

Wind chill and driving rain cost you money all winter.

An exposed building means wet bedding, cold stock and rain blowing onto feed. That shows up as more straw used, more vet bills and poorer feed conversion. With animal welfare a priority, a windbreak protects your livestock without closing the building up completely.

What it is

A screen made for your opening, not a roll off a shelf.

Every windbreak is measured, cut and welded at our Leicestershire production site. The mesh breaks the wind while still letting air move through, so you get shelter without trapping moisture inside.

  • Cut to your exact spans and openings
  • Breaks wind while keeping ventilation
  • Supplied with fixings to suit the frame

What it does

Healthier livestock, less bedding, fewer vet bills.

Take the wind chill, driving rain and snow out of a building and the benefits add up through the season. Bedding stays drier and lasts longer, livestock are happier and healthier, and feed conversion holds up through wet, cold spells.

  • Drier bedding, so less straw used
  • Fewer respiratory problems in housed stock
  • Steadier conditions through wet winters

Sheep and lambs are far happier

Fitted to an open-sided shed that always took the weather. The difference in the bedding through winter has been night and day.

Tom H.PowysVerified

Tight, tidy fit

Measured up exactly to the openings and the welded straps pull it really tight. Looks the part and does the job.

Robert L.YorkshireVerified

Good shelter, fair price

Cut the wind right down without making the shed stuffy. Took a little longer than quoted but worth the wait.

Common questions

Windbreaks questions, answered plainly

No. The mesh breaks the force of the wind while still letting air move through, so you keep shelter without trapping the moisture that causes condensation and respiratory problems.

Windbreaks are designed for steel structures. They come with hook fixings, so they just need something suitable to hook onto. If you are fitting to another material, a piece of metal angle can be added to give the windbreak something to hook onto. Send us the openings and we will tell you honestly what will work.

Standard Green, Grey or Black mesh.

The mesh is UV stabilised. Standard windbreaks up to 6.1m wide by 5m drop carry our 10-year guarantee. Triangular shapes, or anything larger than 6.1m by 5m, carry a 1-year guarantee. All subject to terms.
