For over 150 years, barbed wire has been one of the most popular types of farm boundary control – and it’s still used across Texas today. Affordable, long-lasting, and reliable, it’s a time-tested solution that still hasn’t been beaten.
When you hire LE Fence as your barbed wire fencing contractor, you’ll know you’re getting a top-quality fence at a fair price. We use only the best of materials, custom-fabricating fencing when needed, and all our workmanship is backed up by our own ten-year warranty. We’ve been building fences across Texas for over 25 years, and you’ll appreciate that experience when you see our work!
Why choose barbed wire fencing for your farm or ranch?
What is the Process of Barbed Wire Fencing installation?
1. Plan and Design
Despite being invented in the 19th century, there are few other types of fencing that are more effective at keeping livestock in place while also discouraging unwanted predators – or unwanted humans – from entering your land. Depending on the types of threats facing your land, we can customize the number of wires and frequency of barbs to ensure that all but the largest creatures are deterred.
2. Acquire Material
Following the design planning stage, we gather the necessary materials and proceed to construct your custom barbed wire fence.
3. Install Barbed Wire Fence
Our skilled barbed wire fencing contractors undertake multiple steps in the construction process of barbed wire fences.
4. Excavate Post Holes
Post holes are dug, considering planned spacing and factors like fence height and soil type. Underground utilities are located to prevent damage. Posts, including line, end, corner, and gate posts, are vertically positioned and, if needed, filled with concrete for stability. String lines may be used to ensure accurate alignment for straight and sturdy barbed wire fencing.
5. Attach Wire and Other Fence Hardware
Once the concrete has cured to standard specifications, barbed wire strands are stretched between terminal posts using mechanical fence stretchers. Accessories like rings, tension bands, and turnbuckles are used to attach barbed wire, smooth wire, gates, and other elements according to the design plan. Installation undergoes thorough inspection for compliance with safety standards and codes, with any issues promptly addressed and documented, ensuring gates operate smoothly without sagging.
What Determines the Cost of Barbed Wire Fences?
The exact cost of barbed wire fencing varies depending on several factors unique to each situation, including:
- The size of the property in terms of linear perimeter and square footage.
- The property’s location (residential, commercial, HOAs, etc.).
- Terrain characteristics such as flatness or slope.
- Soil or bedrock composition affecting post hole digging difficulty.
- Accessibility for equipment and material transport.
- Intended purposes like boundary marking, security, or animal control.
- Fence height, post type and spacing, wire type and gauge, and the inclusion of gates.
