Split Rail Fence Types
Farm Fence:
Various types like post and rail, wire, or mesh fencing used in agricultural settings.
Post and Rail Fence:
Consists of horizontal rails attached between vertical posts. Rails and posts are typically rough sewn, which means they don’t have a smooth finish. Most post and rail fencing is considered split rail fencing and can come in post and dowel (rounded posts and rails) or square-shaped posts and rails.
How does it look? Provides a classic and open look, commonly used for livestock containment.
Wire Fencing:
Various types including woven wire, barbed wire, and high-tensile wire.
Used for livestock containment and boundary demarcation.
Electric Fence:
Uses electrical pulses to deter animals from crossing the fence.
Effective for temporary or rotational grazing systems.
Mesh Fencing:
Made of wire mesh with small openings.
Useful for containing small animals and protecting gardens.

Specifically designed for containing poultry like chickens, ducks, and turkeys.
Deer Fence:
Taller fencing designed to keep deer out of crops or gardens.

Sturdy wire panels with smaller openings, designed for hog containment.

Gabion Fence: Utilizes wire cages filled with stones, creating a unique and textured barrier.
Stockade Fence: Similar to a picket fence but with tightly spaced, pointed vertical boards for added security.
