Choosing The Right Horse Fence
Know your horse fencing options for a successful project
It goes without saying that the right fence is crucial to keeping your equine friends safe from predators and other animals.
A good fence is much more than just wire around your perimeter: it is the first line of defense against unwanted threats, and it is key to keep your animals inside where they belong.
What should you consider?
It is recommended that horse fences meet certain requirements to guarantee the animals’ safety:
- Openings should be tight enough to prevent horses from injuring limbs
- Visibility should be enough to avoid unnecessary impacts and/or collisions
- Favor smooth steel wire to protect horses’ hide
- Height needs to be enough to discourage climbing, jumping and predators trespassing
- The fence wire needs to be flexible, in order to spring back into shape after impacts
- The chosen wire fence or panel should resist different weather conditions
- Fence posts need to be placed evenly to guarantee the resistance of the fence
Your options:
When it comes to fencing material, wood fencing and wire fences are the most popular choices, each with advantages. You can choose depending on your budget and preference.
For their versatility, durability and expert manufacturing, let’s explore metal options:
Panels
Panels are a solid choice for temporary pens and fences, offering the same quality as a permanent fence.
Our 2”x4″ Horse Panel is a fantastic option for temporary fences. The small openings are designed with animal safety in mind, and the zinc coating gives the panels exceptional resistance to tough weather conditions.
The STAY-TUFF 4×4 Utility Panel is as versatile as it is tough and durable. Suitable for many applications, this panel adapts to everyday needs.
