Fencing Designed for Horses |
| Temporary Fencing
Temporary fencing for horses involves materials that are light weight yet very visible. They are usually installed by the horse owner and can be easily moved. We recommend these types of fences to be built on fiberglass or wood posts. Steel posts should be avoided because of their grounding potential and risk of horse injury. Life expectancy of these fences is usually about five years. Wide tape materials provide the highest visibility but can be damaged by sustained winds. In windy areas, the polyrope (Electro-Web Hot Rope or Electrobraid) is a better choice. |

Safe-Fence Insulators ![]() ![]() ![]() |
* A polyethylene insulator for wood or plastic line posts with a lock face that holds webbing tight.
* This insulator is used on steel T-Posts as line posts.
* This cap is perfect for the top of T-post which prevents impalement on top of the T-posts.

Safe-Fence Hardware![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
* This clamp is used to connect the energizer to the webbing anywhere in the fence line when a tensioner is not accessible.
* The splicer clamp is a stainless steel spring buckle used to join rolls of webbing or repair torn webbing.
* This connector bolts to the ring hook & connects the energizer to tensioner, strand to strand, and burial wire under gates.
* Used to begin and end each strand at gate posts or buildings and allows for easy retightening.
* This tensioner is used at all corners or any up and down hill direction change greater than 10 degrees and at tape gates.
* The Tee Tensioner has 3 tensioners to be used at all cross fence junctions.

| Safe-Fence Post Sleeves |
* This 5' long sleeve fits over all T-posts. (With Cap). Use these sleeves to get the "White Rail" look for a fraction of the cost of vinyl.
* This 5' long sleeve fits 4" x 4" posts at gates and corners. (With Cap).

| Permanent Fencing
Permanent fencing for horses requires materials with a high degree of visibility and durability to withstand environmental exposure. The high tensile wire commonly used in livestock fencing is coated to give it visibility and safety in horse applications. These coated materials can in some cases be electrified which produces a psychological as well as a physical barrier. We believe the safest horse fence is one that is electrified because it creates a distance between the fence and horse which reduces the risk of injury. We recommend that these fences be built on fiberglass or treated wood fence posts. Steel posts should be avoided because of their grounding potential and risk of horse injury. |

| Posts |
Treated Wood Posts * K Fence features pressure treated wood posts in a variety of sizes. Pressure treated wood makes strong, long lasting, and economical fence posts. Our posts are treated to a 0.4 pound per cubic foot with CCA, then stained. The Forest Products Laboratory in Madison, WI has determined a fence post treated to a 0.4 pound per cubic foot should last 25 - 35 years in most soils. We recommend eight foot posts for livestock fencing and ten foot posts for specialty fencing.

Voltmeters & Miscellaneous![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
* The fence voltmeter is used to evaluate fence and energizer performance. It measures voltage at any point on the fence line. Without the voltmeter, it is virtually impossible to detect how well insulated and grounded your fence is and to determine energizer output. Speedrite Lite Tester
* A product by Speedrite, the Fence Alert light flashes
when low
or intermittent voltages are detected. It can be placed on
permanent
or temporary fencing, does not require a ground and can be seen for up
to a mile.
* These signs are made of plastic and should be placed
every 300
feet on fence to warn of shock hazard.
