Left hand or right hand operation?
The difference between left hand and right hand is shown in the image carousel at the top of the page. This determines which way gates swing throughout your yard and which way it flows.

MAXXUS YARD FEATURES
Due diligence is important, but we know you’re a busy person with things to do. Below you’ll find an overview of the core features of the MAXXUS range. If you’d like to know more, simply click the link below and it will scroll you to the relevant part of this page.
01
Deep Rail Profile
When cattle are putting pressure on yards, it is lateral pressure. For this reason our cattle rail is 47mm deep compared to the more common 40-42mm depth.
03
Anti-rattle Connection Clamps
Our rattle free clamp system reduces annoying noise in the yard and ensures a tight hold between panels and gates compared with loose fitting pins and bolts that others use.
04
Overhead Bracing
We recommend incorporating Overhead Bracing in yard sections with junctions near 90 degrees, especially if you’re dealing with stroppy stock. They help to lock in the yards structural integrity. Recommended if you’re buying a bigger MAXXUS design. If you’re buying a smaller yard and have quiet stock, then they’re not a necessity.
05
500mm Ribbed Ground Spikes
9 times out of 10, MAXXUS yards go on a gravel type pad or just grass. If you’re setting your yard up to be in place more permanently, we recommend adding our 500mm Ground Spikes to your package. If you’re planning to move your yard round or are running quiet stock, they’re not a necessity.
06
Height-adjustable Loading Ramp
Our MAXXUS Loading Ramp has been designed to cater to your typical lifestyle farmer - you may need to load the back of a ute, or perhaps a trailer, or a proper stock truck. Cattle, calf and sheep friendly due to tight rail spacing.
09
Sheep Friendly Rail Spacing
Maxxus yards are designed for sheep use as well. Panels and gates have tighter rail spacing down low to ensure sheep are safely contained. The bottom three spacings are 150mm, 160mm, 190mm on our new Maxxus range.
Customer Projects
Everyone loves talking about their own products, but sometimes the best thing is to hear from the customers who love them too. Over the years we’ve worked with farmers from Kaitaia to Bluff (and everywhere in between).
