Long runs of livestock panels need proper support. Red River Arenas offers heavy-duty pipe-style arena support posts, galvanized T-posts, and purpose-built clamps to help stabilize compatible panel systems.
Our post and clamp options make it easier to reinforce roping arenas, riding arenas, round pens, and other livestock panel layouts. The right combination depends on your panel series, ground conditions, and layout.
Important: Our heavy-duty arena support posts, galvanized T-posts, and livestock panels are not designed to support a hanging pasture gate. Use a separate, properly set and braced gate-support post for a traditional pasture gate.
Watch our video for examples of how Red River Arenas posts and clamps work with our panels.
Our heavy-duty pipe-style support posts reinforce compatible Red River Arenas panel systems, including arenas built with 16-foot panels. The posts are approximately 8 feet long with a 2-3/8-inch outside diameter. Please confirm the current wall gauge when ordering.
Posts are typically driven approximately 2–3 feet into the ground, depending on ground conditions. They support panel runs and are not intended for hanging pasture gates.
A suitable powered post driver may be needed to drive the posts approximately 2–3 feet into the ground. Confirm the required depth for your soil and layout and follow equipment safety instructions.
After installation, cut the posts to the proper height with suitable metal-cutting equipment, remove sharp edges, and install the plastic caps included in the post package.
Watch the installation video below for a visual reference.
Our galvanized T-posts are 6.5 feet tall and weigh 1.33 pounds per foot. Their studded design and riveted anchor plate provide an option for compatible panel-support applications.
Fence clips are sold separately. Galvanized T-posts can be added to compatible Red River Arenas packages.
Do not use these T-posts as pasture gate hinge posts.

Red River Arenas panel clamps help secure compatible arena panels to support posts, creating a cleaner, more stable connection.
Choose the clamp that matches your panel series and connection type. Clamps are designed for specific panel leg sizes.
Straight clamps are used where panel connections run in line. Swivel clamps accommodate angled connections, such as corners and round pen layouts.
Contact us if you are unsure which clamp fits your panels.

Traditional hanging pasture gates require a separate, properly installed and braced hinge post suited to the weight and length of the gate. Some installations use heavy steel pipe and may require fabrication.
Never hang a pasture gate from a Red River Arenas T-post, galvanized panel support post, or livestock panel. None of these components is designed to carry the weight and repeated movement of a swinging pasture gate.
Our GL and GH Series pasture gates include their hinge hardware and have a bottom hinge welded onto the gate.
Gates are manufactured slightly shorter than their advertised opening size to fit inside that opening. Hinge placement determines whether the gate swings both directions or folds back against the fence.

Consider a Red River Arenas Walk-Through Gate designed for a compatible panel system.
Walk-through gates provide convenient access for people and horses without a permanent pasture-gate hinge post.
Walk-through gates are not intended for tractor or vehicle access. Do not approach a walk-through gate at speed on horseback; its lower frame presents a trip hazard.
For occasional equipment access, consider an appropriately planned removable panel opening.
