- Catching pens are sloped towards the board to aid shearers dragging out sheep.
- In sawtooth layouts, pens are at 45 degrees so sheep don’t enter toward the catching pen doors.
- Gates between catching pens allow for moving sheep at cutouts.
- The back gates of catching pens are slide swing, making filling easier.
- ProWay use 65 x 38mm mountain ash for the standing catching pen grating.
