FAQs

What is the lifespan of the fencing?

The lifespan depends on environmental factors, but with proper care and maintenance, it can last for many years.

What tools are needed for installation?

You'll need posts, a post driver (or shovel), staples, wire cutters, a fence stretcher, and gloves.

Can I use this fencing for horses?

While it can be used for horses, it's generally recommended for smaller livestock. For horses, consider a higher and more robust fencing solution.

How do I join two rolls of fencing?

Overlap the ends of the rolls by a few inches and secure them with wire or clips.

How can I prevent animals from going under the fence?

Ensure the fencing is installed flush with the ground. You may also bury the bottom of the fence a few inches to deter digging animals.

Is this fencing suitable for areas with heavy snowfall?

Yes, but be prepared to clear snow from the fence line to prevent excessive weight and potential damage.

How do I maintain the galvanised finish?

Regularly inspect for rust and clean the fencing as needed. Minor rust spots can be treated with a galvanizing compound.

Troubleshooting

Fencing sags or appears loose.

Re-tension the wire using a fence stretcher. Check post stability and reinforce as needed.

Fencing is damaged or broken.

Repair or replace the damaged sections. Use appropriate tools and materials for repairs.

Fencing rusts prematurely.

Inspect for damage to the galvanization. Clean and re-galvanize small areas. For severe rust, consider replacing the affected sections.
