While many of us are familiar with the small fences that we see in different neighborhoods in Colorado Springs, Fountain, Highlands Ranch, Monument, Pueblo West, Pueblo, CO, and the surrounding areas, there are fences that are used in the rural areas that are just as important. Farm fencing can be a challenge because of the large amount needed to close off an area, but our team at Elevate Fencing is ready to help take on this challenge. Farm fencing is used for a number of reasons, but usually it is installed for the same reasons that any other fencing is installed: to keep things in or to keep things out. Not only can we install new farm fencing for clients, but we can also do repair and inspection work on existing farm fencing. Of all of the things that need to be done on a property or farm, fencing is important but tedious. Let our team handle it all by contacting us today and discussing your farm fencing needs.
More Than Just Animal Control
Farm fencing is traditionally thought of as a way to keep farm animals, like cows, sheep, horses, and other animals, inside their pastures. And while this is a common use of farm fencing, it is not the only reason to use it. Because properties can get quite large, having a simple farm fence is a great way to delineate where property lines lie. This can help prevent people trespassing inadvertently, and it also helps to establish goodwill and cooperation amongst the different farm families in the region.
Many times having farm fencing along the road helps to keep boundaries in good condition and let’s people know just how much right of way a county or state has to maintain the roads. But even the make-up of the fence itself has a purpose as well. For example, many farms that have livestock will make the upper barbed wires thicker to help curtail efforts by the animals to force their way through.
These Fences Can Last for Many Years
When investing in farm fencing, sometimes called field fencing, it is important to know exactly where the fence needs to go and to plan out just how much fencing you will need. Once the fencing is installed, if it is properly maintained it can last for at least 25 years, and many such fences have lasted up to 50 years. This truly is an investment in the property and to keep things well maintained so that they can deal with the other projects.
