Need to replace the padding/mat that was on the inside of the exterior walls of my 2H straight-load BP Keifer Built. Our horses tend to scramble up the walls and it's all ripped, exposing the steel wall.

From a Keifer dealer you can purchase OEM materials. Some side stall paddings are a lower density than the floor mats, and can tend to rip or be cut more easily than the floor mats. The sidewall padding can be replaced with a high density mat which should provide a longer lasting product.
We had one horse that was a consistent kicker and would damage the sidewall of our stock/combo trailer. I installed a plywood inner liner and floor mats to cover the walls. Even after several more years of continual usage, the walls remained intact and undamaged.
