Wire fences rely on braced

At Penrod Lumber and Fence Company, we have a long-standing tradition of building quality horse fencing. We specialize in 4-Board Farm and Ranch fence construction. These types of fences add a great look to any property. Over the last two decades, our crews have built miles of fence all across the continental US stretching from northeast to the southern tip of Florida and the west coast. Our company has grown to include a large fleet of trucks and a network of fence crews that build quality, custom fences with our advanced installation techniques in every area of the country.

Steel wire continues to be among the most economical materials from which to construct fences. Smooth steel wire is most often used to manufacture barbed wire or woven wire fence.
Wire fences rely on braced end posts and line posts installed between them to support the wire. Posts can be made of wood, steel, plastic or fiberglass. Typical installations include braced 7- to 8-inch-diameter wood end posts with steel T-posts in between. Steel posts are easy to drive by hand, while wood posts generally require you to dig post holes and tamp soil around each post.
Low-tensile (conventional) steel wire with a low carbon content is still used to construct most wire fences. This material bends and stretches easily, but is relatively inelastic — so if it stretches, it doesn't contract back to its original state. These characteristics mean that it's easy to work with, but also subject to sagging and breakage. Conventional wire requires more line posts spaced closer together for support than high-tensile wire.

High-tensile wire is more difficult to work with, but fences made of it stay tighter longer because the wire is stronger and more elastic. Working with high-tensile wire also requires greater care with setting end posts and braces due to the additional tension they must bear. While the high-tensile wire itself may cost more than its conventional counterpart, you can choose a lighter gauge high-tensile wire and get the same or greater strength than you would with conventional. High-tensile wire fences require fewer line posts, which saves money and labor overall.
The easy fit park fencing uprights, posts and gates come already finished. The top rail and the four lower rails can be primed or galvanised, ready for painting once they are in place. *Please note: When ordering, please state if you would like your estate fencing primed or galvanised. If you are unsure, take a look at our finishes page for more details on the processes, or contact our team at W. Stay & Son.
Our traditional metal deer park fencing is ideal for use as a continuous boundary fence in parkland, deer parks or estate grounds. The fencing is constructed from round & flat steel bar. It is supplied with a hot dip galvanised finish. Ideal for use on uneven ground, it can follow the contours of the ground and can be easily curved.
Deer park fencing can be fabricated either in panels or continuous railings. The external height is normally 1.8 to 2 metres with approximately 550mm below ground.
Back support bars can be supplied if required, alternatively, we recommend a 100 x 100mm post at regular intervals. Where welded panels are to be used for deer park fencing, these would come in a maximum of 2 metre lengths due to the handling weight. We can match to any existing or old style fencing; however in certain cases the cast iron can prove to be very expensive. We always ensure the correct methods and materials are provided at the most reasonable of prices.
We can also install the estate fencing and gates for you - our team have over 30 years experience. Fitting service available in most parts of the country. No site welding - constructed using the traditional method. CDI also make and supply wrought iron tree guards, bridges, driveway entrance gates and bespoke metalwork for gardens and parks. wpc panel decking
