Fence Types
Woven Wire and Field Fence
Good all-around fence for goats, sheep, cattle and dogs, on wood posts or T-posts.
Horse Fence
No-climb wire, board fence or vinyl rail. Visibility and no sharp edges are the main safety concerns for horses.
Barbed Wire
Cattle fencing on rural land. See the rules below.
Hog Wire Panels
Welded panels for pens, gardens and small runs.
Where Barbed Wire Is Allowed
Under the City-Parish's rules, electric and barbed-wire fences are allowed only in the Rural character area, and only for keeping livestock. Concertina wire is prohibited everywhere. Zachary, Central and Baker are separate cities with their own rules, and Livingston and Ascension parishes have their own, so the installer checks the jurisdiction for your land.
Corners and Gates
H-Brace Corners
Braced corners hold the tension on long runs. Most fence failures on acreage start at a weak corner.
Tube Gates
Galvanized tube gates for tractors and trailers, hung on heavy posts.
Cattle Guards
A separate quote, with their own base and drainage needs.
Wet Ground and Floods
Low fields hold water after heavy rain. In August 2016, the Amite River at Denham Springs crested at 46.2 feet. Fences in flooded areas failed where posts were shallow or wood posts were already weak. Deeper posts and materials that tolerate wet ground pay off here.
