Yards
Not every farm is the same. But with 8 years building them we’ve found cattle yards fit within two camps: Commercial or MAXXUS.

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). Read their stories below and find out why Onefarm is one of the fastest growing stock handling businesses in New Zealand.
Why Choose a Onefarm Yard
Explore the key reasons to go for a Onefarm yard for your farm. Instead of trying to sell why we are better, read through some of the facts below and make your own decision.
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.
02
Rattle Free
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.
03
Overhead Bracing
We incorporate overhead bracing in all yard sections with junctions near 90 degrees, ensuring enhanced rigidity and strength. This bracing is crucial for preserving the structural integrity of the yard.
04
Hot Dipped Galvanising
All steel is Hot Dipped Galvanised after welding to NZAS standards keeping yards rust free for life.
Safety
Safety is a core pillar in our yard designs. We use non-stock working areas and various access gate options meaning operators can work comfortably without getting into risky situations. Our yards use anti-bruise oval rails. This means no sharp points.
Efficiency
Our yards are designed to maximize stock flow. All designs are modular, providing flexibility of change whenever needed. Complete consultation process before committing to any earthworks.
Reliability
In most cases, our steel is 15% stronger than what the other guys are selling. Onefarm yards are designed and tested here in New Zealand. For superior strength and longevity in the elements, our steel is hot dipped galvanised after welding.
Steel Over Timber
Value retention
A solid set of hot dipped steel yards will hold their value for a long time. Hot dipped steel yards maintain their condition over time and therefore their value.
Future scaleability
Due to the value retention aspect of an investment in steel yards, they're a very attractive second hand proposition. If they're sold with a property sale, they add real value to the next user.
Easier to erect
Once you've got your pad down, installing your yards is straightforward and intuitive. For our Maxxus yards, typically we provide a colour coded plan and an assembly guide for installation. However our contractors can install Maxxus yards if requested. For Commercial yards, our installation teams will manage this for you to ensure your asset is primed for ultimate use.
Minimal maintenance
Once your yard is up, there's nothing to worry about. All steel is hot dipped galvanised to last! Apart from minor maintenance like greasing slam latches, steel yards require little maintenance.
Flexibility of change
Flexibility of change presents a strong case for going steel over timber. You're not confined by your original designs. Completely modular in nature.
Superior strength
Onefarm yards use a stronger steel profile than others in the market with thicker steel, meaning our panels and gates are often up to 15% stronger than our competitors. Superior strength and longevity.
Stress free stock flow
Our yards use curved races and round forcing pens.
Curved races are superior to straight ones because cattle instinctively tend to return in the direction they came from. Our designs encourage cattle to turn and move, resulting in an improved overall flow.
