Pig quick fencing

I admit I am real new at this. How do gates fit on the quick fence? Is it realistic to use this as the fencing for piglets trained to electric fence? Can we use this by itself and keep the pigs in? Our plan is to move this fairly frequently will this work? Will we have problems with pigs not really knowing where the fence is because we keep moving them?
Thank you for your help

We do not usually use a physical gate with our Quick Fence. We unhook/turn off the energizer from the netting and pick up the end post of the netting to use as our gate. If the piglets are already used to electric fence, this will work well for them. The net is very visible, so they will be able to see it whenever you move it. It will not take them long to figure out the fence 'bites' them - no matter where it is.

Mandy,
Thank you for your help. Will the quick fence hold adult pigs?

Will this fence keep adult pigs in (250) lbs?
