After years of installing equine and agricultural fencing, we’ve learned something important: You can tell a LOT about a person by their fence. Whether you’re all about horse safety, countryside style or just keeping the animals where they’re supposed to be, your fencing choices say more than you think…
So — just for fun — which fencing personality are you?
The Horse Mum (or Dad) Who Trusts No One
Your horse is basically your child and your paddock fencing must be SAFE, strong and escape-proof. You ask all the right questions about the best equine fencing, corners, gates and post spacing — and honestly, we respect it.
Typical quote:“But what if they lean on it?”
The ‘I Want It To Look Gorgeous’ Landowner
Yes, it’s a fence… but it also needs to look good from the kitchen window.
Clean lines, smart post & rail, countryside vibes — your fencing is part function, part landscape design.
Typical quote:“Can it look natural but still be strong?”
The No-Nonsense Farmer
You want agricultural fencing that works hard, lasts years and handles whatever livestock throws at it. No fluff. Just solid, reliable results.
Typical quote:“If it’s going up, it’s staying up.”
The ‘It Was Fine Until Yesterday’ Owner
Everything was absolutely fine… until the sheep got out, the horse tested the fence, or the gate gave up. Now you’re calling us (and thank you!) for an emergency new fence.
Typical quote:“I think we’ve outgrown this setup…”
The Animal Behaviour Expert
You understand that good horse and livestock fencing isn’t just about keeping animals in — it’s about creating calm, stress-free spaces. Flow, visibility and smart layout matter to you.
Typical quote:“They’re happier when the setup feels open.”
So… Which One Are You? 👀
Whether you’re upgrading your paddock fence, planning a full equine fencing project or just ready to replace that temporary fix, the right fencing makes life easier — for you and your animals. And don’t worry… we’ve seen every type of fence (and every type of owner) before.
