| Step 1 – Measure & Mark Post Distance
|
To install, begin by measuring and marking where each post will go, spacing them 2-3 m apart. |
| Step 2 – Dig the Holes
|
Next, dig the holes and set the posts in place, ensuring the flat sides face outwards and the posts remain straight. |
| Step 3 – Set Posts in Concrete
|
Stabilise the posts by fixing them in concrete. |
| Step 4 – Install Reinforcement Struts
|
Attach the reinforcement strut by matching its hole with the second hole from the top of the T post. |
| Step 5 – Secure fencing to First Post
|
Fasten the fence to the first end post with wire ties. |
| Step 6 – Stretch It Tight
|
Roll out the fence towards the opposite end, keeping it taut between the end posts.
Trim any extra length, attach it to the end post as you did before, and then release the tension. |
| Step 7 – Secure to Middle Posts
|
Finally, move along the fence and secure it to the intermediate posts using the same wire ties. |
FAQs
How do I cut stock fence?
With wire cutting pliers or bolt cutters to ensure a smooth cut.
What can I cover the edges with?
Sharp edges should be folded up and under the bottom edge of a stock fence, allowing grass to grow up from beneath. Alternatively, you can cover the bottom edge with timber boards.
When installing agricultural fencing, how far apart should the posts be positioned?
In most cases, 2-3 metres apart.
