Boxed style cattle guards are designed to sit on flat ground. Gravel underlayment is recommended for drainage of these cattle guards. In many cases these boxed cattle guards are used for wheel washes in construction sites. |
|
Flat style cattle guards are designed to be placed into a hole/foundation with a cement form. |
|
All cattle guards can withstand the weight of full tractor-trailer loads. |
|
These cattle guards are constructed using either 9 pieces of 4-1/2" pipe with an approximate gap of 4" between each pipe. |
|
All cattle guards made with 4-1/2" pipe are 6 feet wide by 12-1/2" tall. |
|
There is no difference in strength between the boxed cattle guard and the flat styles of cattle guards. |
|
All cattle guards weigh about 100 Lbs. per foot (a 10' cattle guard weighs about 1,000 Lbs.). Add approximately 8 Lbs. per foot for boxed cattle guards and about another 200 Lbs. total for winged cattle guards. |
|
To use for deer, you may need to place two cattle guards in tandem so you have 12 feet of protection instead of 6 feet. Cattle guards are easily bolted together. |
|
We can custom build a single 12 foot width cattle guard, but shipping for this single cattle guard is very expensive (overwidth). It is far more economical to bolt two 6 foot wide cattle guards together. |
|
Customers have reported success in keeping deer out with a single, 6 foot wide cattle guard. |

|
Note with regard to dimensions: Cattle guards are NOT built to exact dimensions. Sizes may vary by as much as several inches. Adding the removable box option will add about 7" to the total length and width of the cattle guard. For example, a 12 foot cattle guard will be about 12'-7". |
