Keystone Steel & Wire manufactures Red Brand Sheep & Goat square deal knot 2Fence in the USA. This is a strong woven wire fence. Galvanized 12-1/2 gauge wires are woven into a 4"x4" mesh. A third wire wraps each joint securely with a "square deal" knot. Stronger 10 gauge wires are used as the top and bottom wires. Woven construction gives the fence some flexibility, making it easier to erect on uneven ground.  This fence is made with both class 1 and heavier class 3 galvanized coating.

Sheep and goat fence is strong enough to safely contain your animals. It also provides protection from predators. There are no sharp edges anywhere on this fence to cut animals or square deal knot 1people. Galvanized finish resists weathering and gives the mesh a long life. It is available with both standard class 1 finish and heavier class 3 finish for even longer life. The 4"x4" squares are the perfect size for containing sheep and goats. The strong mesh design provides safe confinement and discourages animals from putting their heads through the openings. The fence is flexible and minimizes potential for injury by flexing on impact.

Rolls come in two sizes: 48"x100' and 48"x330'. Sheep and goat fence can be stapled to wood posts or hung on studded T posts. It can also be used for dog runs as well as yard and boundary fences.

How should we use braces on a curve? I looked at (and read) the little section on building curved corners on installing woven fence--but it doesn't show how to brace a curve that's much less than a 45 degree angle. The curves I'm dealing with are right at the start of an 80' run. It's probably about a 20 degree curve? Our fence is to hold dogs IN and horse out of our yard up at the house.

I was wondering if you had ever seen this product used for a deck railing that is moounted between 2x4's or other dimensinal lumber with a pleasing texture and appearance?

You could use the sheep and goat fence for deck railings. But most people want something a bit “dressier” and will opt for more attractive vinyl coated welded meshes. 
Be sure to check with local codes to see what mesh opening size restrictions may be in place. A 4”x4” mesh may be too large, allowing a child to climb up the fence. Such climbing may loosen the knot tying the wires together resulting in a distorted mesh.

Do you make a 60" fence with a 4 x 4 mesh?
