Thinking of having a Manège installed?
There are many things to consider when having a Manège installed, so we have put together a list of things to think about, before you take the plunge!
Planning Permission
Hire a Planning Consultant or submit the planning application yourself? We work alongside a planning consultant who we would be more than happy to recommend, should you choose us to build your Manège.
Location
Access, levels, orientation, utilising/maximising the site – we offer a free, no obligation site visit. During this visit we will use our expertise/experience to establish the best location for your Manège.
We can also identify and resolve any potential problems which can be addressed prior to work commencing.
Size
Discipline? Budget? – 20m x 40m, 20 x 60m, 30m x 40m, or we can install a bespoke Manège to suit your specific requirements.
Surface
Sand/Fibre, Sand/Rubber, Waxed or Standalone? – We would recommend you view and ride on, (if possible), the different surfaces, there are so many to choose from, but it comes down to personal choice at the end of the day.
Perimeter Fencing
Curved Corners? – Easier to maintain when levelling the Manège. No Fencing? – Will you be riding youngsters?

Materials & Construction
Not all Manèges are built the same!

We also use the latest laser grader technology to construct our Manèges, to ensure the best possible result for our Customers’.
