Tips
Precautions
Electric fence is a pain barrier, not a physical barrier. A common mistake is not electrifying it. Animals may escape or become entangled (and may die). On a % basis, entanglement is very rare, but it can and does occur. If animals are scared or starved it will not keep them in.
Netting must be moved when tall grass covers the lower “hot” strands. The alternative? Apply a strip of herbicide to kill vegetation.
Warning! Due to risk of fire, do NOT use continuous output energizers with electric netting or electro-plastic conductors such as rope, twine or tape. Use only with a low or wide impedance intermittent pulse energizer. (Fi-Shock™ brand energizers which are sold as low impedance, continuous current output should NOT be used with electric netting.) All energizers sold on Premier’s website use an intermittent pulse and are suitable for use with electric netting.
Dry conditions and wintertime usage may reduce the effectiveness of electric netting. We do not recommend the use of electric netting during harsh winter conditions—ice and heavy snow can flatten netting and thereby damage it.
Dry or frozen ground may cause post spikes to bend or break if inserted with force. Pilot holes may be needed.

Will buy again.

There is no possible way for the 20 ft gate to not sag with the post spacing. The sag increases ground contact which depletes the battery faster. It’s as if it was designed so that you need to purchase additional support posts. It needs a quick disconnect system for the electric wires. The mechanism for connecting to the standing fence is not robust. I don’t see this lasting longer than a year without modifications and repairs. This is a terrible design for the price.

Works great! Only bought one gate to try it out, but was exactly what I needed. Will buy more.

This was a snap to install. I have one hen that is an escape artist. She saw how I went through the fence before and blew right threw it. She can’t with this gate. I love it!

Really easy to install and use. I highly recommend the gate.
