FAQ

The e-Guard is a versatile and practical solution for managing unwanted behaviour while keeping your animals safe, engaged, and healthy. Whether you want to redirect attention, discourage cribbing, or prevent interaction with neighbouring horses, the e-Guard makes training and stable management easier than ever. Our e-Guards help to prevent habits such as: Door & Wall kicking,Crib biting, Windsucking, Box walking, Weaving, Rearing and other anxiety-based behaviours.

Your horse will naturally investigate the e-Guard. When they make a contact, usually by a touch/investigation, they learn clear boundaries — just like with electric fencing — encouraging self-regulation and calm awareness.

Once calm and understanding are restored, simply remove the energiser!. The e-Guard then acts as a visual and behavioural reminder, maintaining that calm, balanced state wherever your horse is stabled — without drilling, permanent fixings, or damage to walls and doors.

Our e-Guards help to prevent habits such as: Door & Wall kicking, Crib biting, Windsucking, Box walking, Weaving, Rearing and other anxiety-based behaviours.

Like any stall guard it can sit behind an open or closed stable door, and upon first contact, usually by investigating by a sniff or rub or leaning into they will in turn get a low but effective pulse from it as they would from an electric fence out in the field. Once the horse is used to this reaction, this can be replaced by a decoy sensor to continue deterring them.

The e-Guard is ideal for stallions, horses on box rest, or animals prone to behavioural issues. It protects them from injury, reduces stress, and supports management

This helps support self-regulation and lasting change in horse behaviour.

By giving your horse the opportunity to think, adjust, and find balance, the e-Guard supports natural behaviour correction without stress or punishment but by means of choice. It’s a safe, humane, and proven solution for managing stable habits and promoting equine wellbeing.

e-Guards use a combination of gentle electrical energy and natural learning to help horses recognise safe boundaries and reduce unwanted behaviours. The system encourages your horse to self-regulate through curiosity and understanding, rather than fear or force.

Designed for simple setup, the e-Guard can be quickly hung in your stable or taken to shows and events. Its portability makes it ideal for home use, professional yards, or temporary stabling, giving you flexibility wherever you need it. This also means that with no permanent fixings or power tools necessary, you can use one guard on multiple stables and move it about with ease as required.

It also enhances biosecurity in your stable by helping keep horses separate. The e-Stall Guard, especially when combined with the biosecurity drapes we also supply can help prevent close contact of new arrivals and horses in isolation, such as nose to nose contact or leaning over stable doors, whilst still allowing them to see one another.

We also offer a range of supporting products, including energisers and other essential yard equipment, to complement the e-Guard and help you manage your stable efficiently and safely.
