Riding Area

Orton Companies builds riding areas in Minnesota — covered arenas and indoor riding buildings with the clear span, eave height, and footing-friendly drainage riders need. We design arenas that stay usable through winter lessons and summer dust.

Who we build this for

Trainers, lesson programs, and private farms that lose too many months to ice, wind, or a soggy outdoor ring.

What we offer

• Clear spans sized for the discipline you ride
• Eave height for jumping or indoor work
• Lighting for evening lessons
• Kick walls and rider safety detailing
• Attached or adjacent stall-barn connections
• Minnesota snow-load roof engineering

How we build it

Span and height lock the structure. We engineer the roof for Minnesota snow and plan drainage so footing is not sitting in a puddle after spring melt.

The process

1. 01

   Your site and how you will use it

   Orton Companies walks the property, maps access, drainage, and utilities, and locks how you will use the building so it fits Minnesota code and your daily work.

2. 02

   Design and materials

   We produce a clear layout, how the building will look from the street, and a steel-and-timber package sized for snow load, wind, and the way you will actually use the space.

3. 03

   Construction

   A licensed crew sets posts or frame, encloses the shell, and finishes doors, roof, and interiors on a schedule built for Minnesota seasons.

4. 04

   Walkthrough

   You walk the finished building with us, we close the punch list, and you get a space ready for equipment, animals, customers, or living — from the same team that designed it.
