Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How is the wire mesh attached to the split rail fence?

It is typically secured using heavy-duty galvanized staples, fencing nails, or hog rings at regular intervals along the wooden rails and posts. For a cleaner install on new fences, it can be sandwiched between rails during construction.

Will the wire mesh rust?

Our standard galvanized or powder-coated finishes provide excellent rust resistance for years. For coastal or highly corrosive environments, we recommend our premium PVC-coated or hot-dip galvanized options.

Can you supply mesh for curved fence lines?

Yes. Woven wire mesh offers superior flexibility for conforming to gentle curves. For sharper angles, the mesh can be cut and joined at posts.

What is the lead time for custom-sized orders?

Standard sizes are typically in stock for immediate shipment. Custom fabrication generally requires 2-4 weeks, depending on the order volume and specifications.

Is this product suitable for containing small dogs or chickens?

Absolutely. By selecting a smaller grid size (e.g., 1" x 2" or 2" x 2"), the wire mesh for split rail fence becomes an effective barrier for small pets and poultry.
