Pay special attention to corner posts


Fence posts come in an array of sizes and lengths to accommodate varying fence heights and setting depths. Solid wood treated posts are a good choice for permanent boundary fences. Farm Fence
Fiberglass or steel posts are suited for temporary pasture grazing fences. They weigh less, do not rot and are more easily driven into the ground than wood. Steel posts are fireproof and help ground the fence against lightning. However, livestock can bend them or move them out of alignment. Deter this by interspersing wood line post at certain intervals.
The general consensus is that the larger the top diameter, the stronger the post. Line posts can be as small as two-and-a-half inches, while brace posts should be five inches or more in diameter.
Pay special attention to corner posts. Considered by many to be the fence's backbone, corner posts should have a minimum eight-inch diameter. A brace assembly is used for each fence attaching to a corner post. Options include single span, double span and braced assemblies.
Horse fence can be one of the most attractive features of a horse facility. But not all fence is suitable for horses. A fence should keep horses on the property and keep away nuisances such as dogs and unwanted people. Fences aid facility management by allowing controlled grazing and segregating groups of horses according to sex, age, value or use. Waterproof material WPC wall panel
The true test of a fence's worth is not when horses are peacefully grazing, but when an excited horse contacts the fence in an attempt to escape or because he never saw it during a playful romp. The fence needs to be highly visible to the horse. Horses are far-sighted and look to the horizon as they scan their environment for danger. Therefore, even when the fence is relatively close, it needs to be substantial enough to be visible. The fence should be high enough to discourage jumping and solid enough to discourage testing its strength yet have some 'give' to it to minimize injury upon impact. Most importantly there should be no openings that could trap a head or a hoof.
Flex fencing is designed specifically for horses and is made from high grade plastic with three 12.5 gauge high tensile wires for extra strength. It is a safer alternative to paige wire or oak board. Flex fence combines high durability and great looks in a unique fencing solution. The fence looks like board fence and comes in three colors, white, black, and brown, to match most farm colour schemes.
The unique design allows the flex to slide on the rails on impact. Flex Fence is capable of withstanding temperatures well below 40C making it perfect for all climates. The fence is low maintenance as it won't splinter, warp or fade, and no paint is required. Proper installation will greatly increase the life and attractiveness of the fence.
The fences we build today are much different from what our grandfathers used to build. With the new methods and materials now available, we can build a much more durable, longer lasting, maintenance free fence for less money than our grandfathers could. composite outdoor Fence
