Q. What are the types of wire fences?
Woven Wire Fences
Barbed Wire Fences
Barbed wire consists of two or more strands of smooth, galvanized wire twisted together and interspersed with two or four sharp wire barbs every three to five inches. Standard barbed wire fences usually have three to five strands of barbed wire stretched between posts. Spacing between wires depends on the number of line wires and fence height; posts are usually spaced from 12 to 20 feet apart.      Learn More


Q. What kind of fence should I use?

Hog Fence

A good choice is a combination of the two:  Heavyweight woven wire fence with one or more strands of b      Learn More

Deer Fence

Fixed-knot, high-tensile deer fence is the most effective and humane deer barrier.  Properly installed, this hardy fence can last 25 years or more.  Since deer can jump great heights, the fence needs to be eight to 10 feet tall, and it is often recommended that it be slanted at a 45-degree angle toward where the deer are most likely to      Learn More

Horse Fence

Finding the right fence to protect your equine investment is extremely important since horses, more than any other livestock, tend to “challenge” fencing by trying to climb or step through the barrier, and by leaning and rubbing against the fence.  A good choice for horse fence is a closely spaced, coated non-climb woven wire fence with smooth knots so the anim      Learn More
