Horse Fence

There are several options for equine fencing, and we can install them all. Overall, the factors you want to look for no matter which type you choose include the following:

It should not have openings that can trap a horse’s head or hooves.
It should not have anything that sticks out or have sharp edges that could injure a horse if it leans against it, falls into it, or scratches against it.
It should be at least 4 ½–5 feet tall to contain your horses safely.
The bottom portion of the fence should be positioned about 6–8 inches from the ground to keep foals from rolling out of the area.

Livestock Fence

Whether you raise cattle, sheep, goats, or other domestic animals on your farm, Schmidt Fencing can provide you with the appropriate fencing enclosure to keep your animals safe. We offer several options for livestock, including woven wire, barbed wire, and 2, 3, and 4 board types. If you’re “on the fence” about which is the best option for you, let’s talk. We can help you decide based on your animals’ sizes and types.

Field Fence

You may hear the term field fence used a few ways, since sometimes people have different ideas of what this is. Typically, true field fencing is made of strong-gauge wire with crimped joints and is generally very suitable for farms with cattle or hogs. There are other options, too, for keeping cattle and hogs safe, and we can help you determine the best fencing type for your farm.

Barbed Wire Fencing

When your farm needs maximum protection, barbed wire fencing is up to the challenge. It’s relatively inexpensive to install and maintain, and installation time is quick. Its looks alone make it an ideal deterrent, but special tools are needed to cut, chew, or destroy it. You can also customize the barb length and spacing.
