Arena Posts and Panel Clamp Connectors

Support Your Arena Panels With the Right Posts and Connections

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.

Heavy Duty Post

Heavy-Duty Arena Support Posts

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.

How to Install Our Heavy-Duty Posts

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.

Galvanized T-Post

Galvanized T-Posts

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.

Arena Panel Clamp Connectors

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.

Pasture Gates and Proper Gate Posts

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.

What If I Cannot Install a Traditional Pasture Gate?

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.

Arena Posts and Clamp Connectors

Why do we need horse fencing posts?
The answer is something we all need to know!

No portable arena can stand up without some sort of post. It's like riding a bicycle- if you quit supporting the bike by peddling you will fall over- sorry but that is just the law of gravity- and if you stretch a long line of panels out without support, it will fall over as well.

Red River Arenas now offers posts for ALL it's arena systems. We offer 2 variety of post for you to choose from. The first is a heavy duty post. These fencing posts are 2 3/8" O, 8' long 13 gauge. The second is a galvanized T-Post. Red River also has developed a fence post clamp to connect your panels to the fencing posts with a quick, clean and strong connection making your arena more like a site built arena.

Not sure why you need post or clamps? Needing some guidance on how to set up your chains, posts, and clamps that you purchased from Red River Arenas? This video includes photos to explain the process of how the post and clamps work with your panels and arena equipment!

Here are some pictures of an arena using the 16' series panels. To support the panels in the arena we have 2-3/8" livestock fence posts that are 13-14 gauge, 8' tall, driven into the ground approx 2'-3'. The galvanized fence posts can be added onto any package that Red River offers.

How to install our Heavy Duty Posts

You will need to rent an air driver for these posts. You will use the air driver to drive these posts into the ground 2-3 feet. Once you get the post driven, you will use a sawzall to cut the top off level with the panel and then place the plastic cap (included in post package) into the top of the post.

Here is a video for reference.

Arena Clamp Connectors

For those that are looking to make their roping arena more like a site built arena, Red River Arenas has an exclusive clamping system made just for Red River's arena systems. Each clamp is built for the specific panel that is used whether it be the 1" or the 2" legs. Red River also has "swivel" clamps that are used for round pens or for corners where the arena cannot accomodate the "straight" clamp.

Pasture Gates

There are two different ways that these panel gates were hung. The first is with overheads. These gates are going to be seeing more pressure so they needed extra support for a sturdy gate. For the arena entrance gates, a single heavy duty post was used. All pasture gate post should be hung with heavy duty pipe to prevent sagging. In these pictures, oil field pipe was used. The gate posts do require some fabrication for installation of the gates.

What do I do if I cannot hang a gate?

If you do not have fabrication experience, and do not want to hire it done, then you need walk thru gates. Walk thru gates are available in 6' thru 10' only. You cannot drive a tractor through a walk thru gate, as it will damage the gate structure. Nor can you get a running start into the arena because it will trip your horse and you will chance getting hurt. Those that do not want to install a pasture gate, but want to still have the ability to drive a tractor into the arena, have been known to just open a panel in the arena and use a small walk thru the rest of the time. And never fear- even though we call them walk thru gates, you can still ride your horse through them!
