Installation

Permanent Rope Fence:
If posts are power-driven, only a battery drill, cutters and screwdriver are needed. We do 500 ft in 2 hours if posts are already in place.

  1. Install wood end, corner and line posts.
  2. Attach insulators to posts.
  3. Attach rope to one end.
  4. Clip rope into insulators. Pull until the P Spring is 50% compressed. Terminate it.
  5. Connect ropes together electrically at one end with a piece of insulated wire.
  6. Install and connect the energizer. Voltage should be over 1500 volts.
  7. Note: if run is 1000' feet or longer, use a P Spring at both ends of the fence instead of 1 end.

Suggested Heights:
  • For Horses:
    • 5 strands--60", 48", 36", 24", 12"
    2 strands--48", 24"

  • For Sheep/Goats:
    • 5 strands--36", 27", 20", 13", 7"
    3 strands--27", 15", 7"

  • For Cattle:
    • 3 strands--40", 27", 15"
    2 strands--34", 27"
    1 strand--34"
Precautions

If cutting the rope, lightly burn the ends with a lighter or match to avoid unraveling.

The thickness of this rope makes it very handy in a horse fence. It is very visible and like the 4.5 rope, easy to handle when installing. Using a reel when storing this conductor helps eliminate any tangle related headaches.

Up quick and easy. No experience with the stuff but I fenced off 1.5 acres in just a couple of hours. Has been up for a month and no escapes from a horse, llama and two goats. Works great and the visibility is perfect. The horse always knows it's there.

Use this rope for cross fencing within hi-tensile woven wire for rotation purposes with boer goats and where there is a common fence between where bucks may be; offset 8" from the hi-tensile woven wire. Bucks respect the offset wire, no more fighting between the hi-tensile. In the paddocks, run 2 strands on fiberglas posts attaching each end to a wood post (stays nice & taut); 1st strand ~12". Goats mostly repect the fence, some non-conformist (smaller goats) occasionally shimmy under it to the next paddock; goats eat underneath it so easy to maintain. Would NOT recommend this for a perimeter fence unless you use a 3rd strand, lower. Is installed basically permanently; no problems. Easy to work with, delivers adequate shock and highly visible.

I purchased and installed this fencing in 2009. It was easy to work with and visible in all weather. I just installed another pasture area and perimiter fence this year and I will definitely be doing the same on our TN property! LOVE this fencing system!

I absolutely love this fencing. It's easy to put up, easy to see, and the first pasture we did with this lasted over 10 years. We had a panicked horse run into five strands of this and he just bounced back unhurt....can't beat that for safe horse fencing!

The visibility of this fence is excellent. I used other fencing in the past and, occasionally, when let into a new paddock on a foggy morning or at dusk my cattle would go right through it. With intellirope, they can see the fence even in high grass and I've had no accidental escapes since. Easy to use, durable - the best!

I just installed this fence and it was very easy to work with and install. So far it looks great, I hope it ages well. It is definitely one of the easiest fences I have ever installed.

A very easy long lasting electric fencing.We fenced in 5 + acres in 1 day , it is long lasting , looks good and we only have to adjust the tension a couple times of year.This is far superior to using wire fencing.

This is the best horse fencing you can buy. Unlike the wire fence, it is much easier to see and if it breaks you can just tie it back together rather then having to re-string or find the pliers! Once you get the t-post in, if you have two people you can string an acre in 15 min. The electric rope keeps the horses in and the wildlife out and you never have to repaint. I love, love, love this fencing.
