The Class 3 galvanized coating on our fence materials is proven to last three times longer than Class 1.
The fixed knot design of our fence mesh provides greater strength and performance than hinge-joint mesh.
The varying mesh spacings, with smaller “holes” toward the bottom of the fence, helps ensure greater security from unwanted animals while maintaining an affordable fence solution.
The steel mesh is designed to withstand stresses without losing shape or strength. The crimps in the horizontal wires absorb pressure – both during installation and from animals.
Over the years, horse owners have been creative with their fences–all pipe, pipe and cable, pipe and wire, wire with cedar stays, wood, and other combinations.
Tejas fence professionals can design and install a variety of horse fences, each built with durability, flexibility, safety, and longevity in mind.
The most cost-effective fencing incorporates high-tensile, fixed-knot material, which is well suited for horse paddock side lines, bordering protection, and pastures.
The fixed-knot wire mesh prevents horses from putting their heads through the fence or stepping through gaps and becoming entangled. Fixed-knot fences are particularly advantageous for mare and foal operations. Additionally, horses are less likely to injure themselves on this type of material, which withstands forceful kicking and horse hooves. Fixed-knot fencing is also more visible and easier for fast-running horses to see, which helps reduce accidental impacts.
Building or replacing a fence comes down to value versus cost. High-tensile fences provide significant value, as detailed above. And over the long-term, these superior fences cost no more to install and maintain than barbed wire. The cost to install fixed-knot fence is virtually the same as barbed wire because of the 25-foot post spacing, which requires fewer end posts. After installation, the fixed-knot fence is practically maintenance free, which translates into significant savings of time and money. The service life is also more than three times longer than that of barbed wire and hinge joint fencing.
With a wide variety of height and mesh patterns at their disposal, Tejas Ranch & Game Fence team members can install the horse fence that best suits your needs for years to come.
Our recommended horse fence material has 16 horizontal wires and stands 61 inches tall. Vertical spacing is available in 12-inch, 6-inch, and 3-inch lengths. For pasture, cross and perimeter fences with low pressure, we offer the 6-inch vertical spacing. For stalls, holding pens, and runways, we recommend the 3-inch vertical spacing for greater strength and resistance to pawing and downward pressure.
Tejas horse fences provides the perfect balance of service life, reliability, and value.
The high-tensile steel mesh is designed to provide security and a long service life. This means lower costs for maintenance and replacement. For the ultimate steel mesh, we also offer a profile featuring a zinc-aluminum coating that is highly resistant to flaking, cracking, splitting, and separating. This Class 40 Zinc-Aluminum coating provides the highest degree of protection available for high-tensile steel mesh.
Additionally, Tejas builds predator control barriers and water gaps, enabling our team to customize fencing for any type of terrain.
