Easy to work with. Excellent current carrying ability.

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!
Joe H from sc
excellent product that functions as intended.

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.
