The primary purpose of a stall guard is indeed to keep the horse from coming out of the stall. The stall guard or chain may be used to keep the animal in a stall for a short period or long time period.

The guard is also easier to adjust to the individual horse than a solid or Dutch door would be.

 

Providing a stall with a stall guard that allows a horse to look out may calm a nervous horse. If you hang the hay net filled with hay outside the door, the nervous horse can eat while watching what is going on around the barn. Horses are usually social creatures, preferring to be in larger groups. Being able to look out of the stall and see other horses will be reassuring to the horse.

This is partially due to providing a means of keeping the valuable horse inside the unfamiliar stall. However, the customized stall guards also make an excellent way of advertising the stable’s services.

 

Stall guards may also be used as a temporary method of separating horses from each other.

Whether at home or traveling, stall guards and chains make horse management much easier for the owner.
