WHICH FENCE
DO I NEED? |
Look at the listing
of fence types in the column on the far left and click on the
category that most closely matches your particular needs. You
can also click on the icons to the left of this column. You'll
be taken to a page with diagrams, detailed specifications, and
recommended choices for the fencing that will suit your situation.
You should look for a fence that matches your budget, but keep
in mind changes in your future requirements. Remember you can
put cattle behind a deer fence, but not deer behind a cattle
fence. |

| ABOUT FENCE
SPECIFICATIONS |
| The numbered specification
for each fence describes: |
| |
1) The number of line (horizontal)
wires
2) Fence height in inches
3) The spacing between stay (vertical) wires
4) The length of the fence roll in feet |
|
| For example, 2096-6-330
is a fence with 20 line wires, 96 inches tall, with 6 inch spacings
between the vertical stay wires, and is 330 feet long. |

| SPECIFICATION
RANGES |
HEIGHTS:
Heights range from 42" with 8 line
(horizontal) wires to 96" with 20 line wires. |
HORIZONTAL (LINE
WIRE) SPACING: The spacing
of the line wires varies depending on the application. Fence
with the tighter 3" (horizontal) spacing at the bottom
of the fence provides "predator control." All but
the smallest predators can't get in, and small animals (i.e.
fawns or lambs) can't get out. |
VERTICAL (STAY
WIRE) SPACING
The distance between the stay (vertical)
wires varies from 3" to 6" to 9" to 12".
The closer the stays the stronger the fence. Fence with a 6"
stay spacing is the most common, however 3" is suited to
higher pressure or higher security areas, whereas 12" can
be used in low pressure areas. The fence becomes fully "predator
proof" with 3" spacings between the horizontal line
wires and 3" spacings between the vertical stay wires. |
