CATTLE YARDS • SHEEP YARDS • REPAIRS
Cattle Yards & Sheep Yards
New steel yards built to suit your stock and your ground, extensions to an old set, or repairs to broken rails, posts and gates. Fabricated in our Mount Pleasant workshop and welded in place on the property.
Yards Built To Suit Your Property
Iron Works builds steel cattle yards and sheep yards to order and repairs the ones you already have. Every set is made for the property it goes on: the number of head you work at once, the space you have and where the truck pulls in to load.
The steel is cut and fabricated in our Mount Pleasant workshop, then welded in place on site so posts, rails and gates sit right on your ground. The galvanised yard in the photos below is one of our builds going in.
Already have yards? Old sets can be repaired and extended rather than replaced: cracked welds, rusted-out posts, bent rails and gates that no longer swing are fixed where they stand, and new pens, races or a crush bay can be added on.

Tell us the stock and the site
Call Sean or send photos and a rough sketch: how many head, where the truck loads, and what is there now.
02
Measure up and quote
We look at the ground and the layout and quote the steel and the build. Quotes are free.

The yards are fabricated in Mount Pleasant and welded in place on your property.

Grazing country across the Adelaide Hills, the Barossa and the Murraylands, from our workshop at Mount Pleasant. We travel further for bigger jobs.
Cattle Yards: Common Questions
Do you build new cattle yards?
Yes. Iron Works builds new steel cattle yards to order: pens, forcing yard, race, loading ramp and crush, fabricated in our Mount Pleasant workshop and welded in place on your property.
Can you repair or extend old cattle yards?
Yes. We repair cracked welds, rusted posts, bent rails and broken gates on site, and add new pens, a longer race, a crush bay or a ramp to an existing set.
Do you build sheep yards too?
Yes. We build sheep yards, races and drafting gates to suit your mob and your shed or loading area, and repair existing sheep yards on site.
What should I think about before building yards?
Start with how many head you work at once, where the truck or trailer will load, how the ground drains in winter, and whether you want room for a crush or ramp later. Send us a rough sketch and photos and we can quote from that.
Which areas do you build yards in?
We build and repair yards across the Adelaide Hills, the Barossa and the Murraylands, working from our workshop at Mount Pleasant SA 5235. We travel further for bigger jobs, so call and ask.
How much do cattle yards cost?
It depends on the size, the layout, the steel and the site. Send us the details and a few photos and Sean will give you a free quote.
