Dura-Tech® Overhead Aisle Tie

Tie From Above and Keep the Aisle Open

Cross ties block the aisle: people duck, horses can't pass, and a horse held from both sides can feel trapped. This 17-foot overhead rope hangs one tie (or two) from above, so traffic flows and the horse stands easier.
1
Nobody Ducks, Everybody Passes
The tie comes from above instead of across, so people and horses move through the aisle at shows, at home or at a boarding barn.
2
Less Panic Than Two-Sided Ties
Horses don't feel trapped the way they can when tied from both sides with conventional cross ties.

Fits Aisles up to 14 Feet
Wrap each end around a beam or stall support and hook the bolt snap to the brass fitting. Trailer or stall tie not included.

★★★★★
Saw this at a horse show and immediately pulled out my phone to order one for my barn. I love how the ties hang down so there's no searching the side aisle to see where your crosstie landed when you unhooked.

★★★★★
These are a must at horse shows! Extremely quick and easy to set up and makes grooming and tacking so much easier than carrying heavy saddles through stall doors! Definitely recommend having this cross tie if you show!
Traesa S. — Schneiders® owner ✓ Verified
★★★★★
Great product that is easy to set up and use. You should consider including a set of adjustable cross-ties with the overhead aisle tie.

One Rope Overhead, a Clear Aisle Below

This system consists of a 17’ MCR rope with adjustable brass fittings at both ends and in the center. Each end of the rope wraps around an upper beam or stall support and is secured by hooking the heavy duty bolt snap to an adjustable brass fitting at each end.

Innovative way to cross-tie

"I have used this system a few times. I will say that one of my horses is a little skittish seeing the cross ties hanging down on each side, but he is okay with it. Sometimes depending on where you are you may need a step stool to reach up to attach the leads."

— Paige F. (5/5)

Great item

"Easy installation and great tool."

— Nathan W. (5/5)

"Really easy to use - excellent for horse show aisles!"

Easy and convenient overhead system

— Kristin (5/5)

Love the convenience and portability

"Great addition for my barn"

— Betty (5/5)

I don't know about buying it again and again but might buy

"The easy quick release is good when at shows and other horses and riders need to get through. I also didn't realize it came with 2 trailer ties ( I thought one) so ordered ties I didn't need."

— Genelle (4/5)

Portable Ties for Horse Shows

"I was a tad confused how to use it the first time, but once I got it up it was INCREDIBLE for horse shows! It's so easy to throw up and have a portable way to tie horses at shows. I love how the cross tie rings don't slide or swing. I'll probably buy another set so we can have two horses groomed/tacking up at shows!"

— Amanda (5/5)
