No-Climb Horse Fence
No-climb fence (also called non-climb or horse fence) uses a tight 2" x 4" welded wire mesh that prevents horses from getting their hooves caught or pushing through. It's the safest wire fence option for horse properties and equestrian facilities. The smooth wire won't cut or scrape like barbed wire, and the tight mesh pattern prevents climbing. Usually installed with wooden posts for a traditional look, though T-posts with wooden top rail are a more affordable option.
