Vinyl Horse Fence and HDPE Horse Fencing

The nightmare of loose animals on a highway at night is a vision that all of us want to avoid at all costs. Although good horse fencing can be expensive, poor horse fencing can be a whole lot more expensive. Split rail wood fence and barbed wire used to be the only choices but today there are several new alternatives that do a much better job at a fraction of the cost and take a whole lot less work. Have you noticed that you just don’t see many new wood fences anymore?

Pasture Fences

Vinyl fence and HDPE fence for horses and cattle have pretty much taken over the task of large animal containment and for good reason. The new fence alternatives look better, work harder and last longer than wood fence and barbed wire fence of the past. An the best part is they don’t have to be painted and repaired like the old fences did. After 20 years of use, vinyl fence and their newer cousin HDPE fence have proven themselves to be the best alternative to keep animals and people safe and secure.

Vinyl fence and HDPE fence is being used successfully for cattle containment by some of our customers. Yes it’s true that cattle like to push nudge and shove when in confined areas but in the open pastures vinyl fence and HDPE fence are being used with good results with some modifications.

Vinyl fence by it’s very nature is an insulator so many of our customers have simply drilled holes in the posts and strung hot wire through and electrified it with a hot fencer unit operated by solar power with good results. The only consideration here is that a stainless steel type wire works best so that it doesn’t rust on the fence posts. Others have used t-posts and strung a strand or two of hot wire just inside the fence line to keep the animals off the fence and it’s work quite well and looks great too. It’s important to space it close enough to the vinyl fence so that animals can’t get caught between the fence lines, but is otherwise a real simple fix. Instead of having to use a more expensive four or five rail fence some of our customers have used this hot wire concept with a two or three rail fence and saved some money.
