Farm Fencing

Farm fencing is essential for managing livestock, protecting pasture, and maintaining secure boundaries across your property. Whether you’re building a permanent perimeter, dividing paddocks for rotational grazing, or setting up temporary enclosures, the right materials make all the difference.

We carry a complete range of farm fencing supplies, including wood fence posts, metal fence posts, wire fencing, fence rails, cattle panels, electric fencing systems, and farm gates. Each component is selected for strength, ease of installation, and year-round performance in Canadian conditions.

Explore dependable fencing solutions for cattle, horses, sheep, goats, and poultry—built to suit farms of every size and setup.

Post, Rail & Wire

Every farm fence starts with the right foundation. Fence posts—available in wood or metal—provide the structural support needed to anchor wire, rails, and gates. Wood fence posts are ideal for permanent corners, gates, and high-tension runs, while metal fence posts offer a fast, durable solution for line posts and temporary layouts.

Once the framework is in place, fence wire delivers the containment. Choose from high-tensile smooth wire for long runs, barbed wire for added livestock control, or woven field fence for small animals and predator protection. Wire can be used on its own or electrified for added effectiveness.

To increase visibility and structure, especially for horses and large livestock, fence rails can be added to your setup. Whether using treated wood or low-maintenance vinyl, rails improve fence rigidity and create a traditional farm look, while still working seamlessly with wire for a secure, multi-purpose boundary.

Farm Gates

Farm gates are a critical part of any livestock fencing system, providing secure access points for animals, equipment, and vehicles. Built from durable steel or heavy-duty tubing, these gates are designed to withstand daily use in pasture settings, feedlots, laneways, and handling systems.

Available in a variety of lengths and styles—such as tubular gates, wire-filled gates, and mesh panel gates—they can be matched to the type of livestock being managed, from cattle and horses to sheep and goats. Pair them with properly braced wood fence posts or metal gate posts for a secure, long-lasting setup that fits seamlessly into your fencing layout.

Whether you need a gate for a main pasture entry, a temporary pen, or a handling area, our selection of farm and livestock gates is built to perform in tough agricultural environments.

Livestock & Cattle Panels

Cattle panels let you frame corrals, sorting alleys, or load-out chutes in minutes—and move them just as quickly when your layout changes. These livestock panels come in three strength classes, each defined by the wall thickness and diameter of the tubular steel rather than exact gauge numbers:

Light-duty cattle panels use the thinnest tubing and fewer rails, making them easy to handle and ideal for calves, weanlings, or temporary holding pens.

Medium-duty panels feature heavier pipe and added bracing to handle everyday pressure from yearlings and cows in standard working alleys.

Heavy-duty cattle panels are built with the thickest pipe and reinforced uprights—made to withstand bulls, crowded load-outs, and repeated gate slamming in high-traffic areas like chutes.

Most panels stand approximately 50 inches tall with six or seven horizontal rails. Pin-and-lug connectors or chain hooks allow you to hinge a panel as a swing gate or create quick break-points for equipment access.

Electric Fence

Electric fencing delivers a quick, memorable pulse that trains animals to respect the boundary without the need for heavy or high-cost materials. The shock is brief and low-current, making it safe for livestock while still effective at deterring cattle, horses, sheep, and goats from pushing or testing the line. These systems require minimal tools to install, adjust easily to uneven ground, and can function as standalone setups or as a single “hot” offset on an existing post and wire or post and rail fence.

Temporary Electric Fencing: Designed for rotational grazing and short-term paddocks, temporary electric fencing uses lightweight polywire or polytape supported by step-in posts. A portable solar or battery-powered energizer allows for quick adjustments, giving livestock access to fresh forage while protecting previously grazed areas.

Permanent Electric Fencing: Built for long-term use, permanent electric fences combine high-tensile smooth wire with properly braced corners and a reliable mains-powered or high-output solar energizer. These fences provide a low-maintenance, cost-effective solution for managing large acreages, containing stubborn animals, and integrating with gates, laneways, and cross-fence divisions.

Frequently Asked Questions For Farm Fencing

What’s the best type of farm fencing for cattle?

For cattle, high-tensile smooth wire and barbed wire are common choices. Electric fencing is often added to reduce pressure on the fence line and extend its lifespan.

How far apart should fence posts be spaced?

Post spacing depends on the wire and terrain. High-tensile wire can be spaced 20–30 feet apart, while barbed or woven wire typically needs posts every 8–12 feet for stability.

Do I need electric fencing for all animals?

Electric fencing is not required for all livestock, but it adds a psychological barrier that improves effectiveness. It’s especially useful for cattle, goats, and predator control.

What fencing is best for rotational grazing?

Temporary electric fencing with polywire and step-in posts is ideal for rotational grazing. It’s lightweight, easy to move, and quick to set up between pasture sections.

How long will farm fencing last?

With proper materials and installation, most farm fencing systems last 15–25 years. Treated wood posts, galvanized wire, and proper bracing all extend lifespan.

What type of fencing works for mixed livestock?

Woven wire or field fence is often used for mixed-species pastures. It keeps smaller animals like sheep or goats secure while withstanding pressure from larger animals.
