Everything you need to know
The 12ft x 12ft Open Front Mobile Animal Field Shelter V.2 keeps one long side fully open, giving horses and livestock free, unrestricted access in and out while still offering solid protection from wind, rain and sun on three sides. Its square 12ft footprint suits a single horse or a small group sharing shelter in an exposed field.
Built for easy self-assembly, it comes complete with instructions and fixings, or the Arbor Garden Solutions team can install it on your behalf. The shelter is clad in sawn featheredge boards as standard and framed in 2x4 (38mm x 89mm) pressure-treated timber. Supplied on galvanised steel skids, this V.2 shelter can be towed between paddocks without an expensive concrete base, and mobile shelters rarely require planning permission.
- 12ft x 12ft open-front design

Depending on which you pick, this ranges from £1,550.40 up to £1,800.30.
Field Shelter - what actually matters
Anything that lives outdoors in the UK has to cope with sustained damp rather than dramatic weather. Drainage, airflow and how the unit sits on the ground do more for its lifespan than the headline material. If you want the longer version, read the full range.
Looking after it
- Re-coat with a clear or tinted exterior wood treatment every two to three years.
- Keep the base clear of piled soil and leaf litter so the timber can dry out.
- Check fixings once a year and nip up anything that has worked loose.
Delivery and returns
Orders over £100 ship free to UK mainland addresses, normally inside 5-7 working days. Larger items travel by pallet to kerbside, so arrange help to move them. You have 14 days to change your mind under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 - see returns and delivery.

Assembly time depends on the size — storage boxes take 15–45 minutes, benches around 30–60 minutes, sheds and bin stores 2–3 hours with two people. Exact figure for this product is in the Full specification table below. Tools needed: a screwdriver and a spirit level. Prefer someone else to build it? Book a verified Tasker via Taskrabbit.
A level, solid surface gives the best result for sheds and larger storage units — concrete slab, paving flags, or a pressure-treated timber base all work. Storage boxes sit on any level paved or decked surface. If the ground isn't level, panels won't line up cleanly and the unit won't be fully weathertight.
