Rural and Lifestyle Fencing - Fencing
There are mainly two reasons for a fence; to keep something in or out! You may have a large paddock of barley or a small vegatable patch, that you want to keep animals out of, or cattle, sheep, horses, or other animals you want to keep in. (you may not want certain animals to mix) When designing a stock fence we take into account a number of different factors including;
- What type of animals are to be contained?
- Is only one type of animal going to be in the paddock?
- What are the local ground conditions?
The answers to these questions determine the size of the posts, post centers, type of fencing needed;
- netting
- wire
- soft wire or
- electric wires
Some examples of installations by Rural and lifestyle Fencing are to the left.
