How To Build a Woven Wire Horse Fence
Posted by Duncan Page on Tue, Feb 10, 2009
Keystone Steel and Wire, makers of high quality Red Brand wire products, produces two types of galvanized woven wire mesh for horse fencing:
Keepsafe Diamond Mesh - heavy duty 12-1/2 gauge double strand horizontal wires woven with 14 gauge wires in a 2"x4" diamond mesh pattern; 50" and 58" x 165' rolls.
2"x4" Mesh Non-Climb - 10 gauge top and bottom wires, 12-1/2 gauge "filler" wires woven into 2" x 4" mesh; 36", 48", 60" and 72" x 100' rolls.
You can trust these products to safely contain your horses. Both of these fences share the following characteristics:
- fence meshes have spring and flexibility
- long lifetime, requiring little maintenance
- strong and safe woven mesh construction
- no sharp projecting wires to scratch animals or people
- openings in fence are too small to entangle legs or hooves
- easier to install on uneven ground than rigid
welded meshes
- available with Class 1 or Class 3 (extra
heavy)
