Ranch Tee Post Fences

What is a T-Post Fence?

This type of fence simply gets its name from the posts that are set into the ground – the steel “t-post” which is typically coated for rust resistance and corrosion protection. Along the posts are studs that hold the wire in place, and the top is typically painted white for greater visibility of the fence line.

When installing your t-post fence, the team from A Straight Up Fence Company will drive each of these posts a good 18” to 24” into the ground, even powering through solid rock if needed. Next, we’ll attach 2” x 4” welded wire to the posts with heavy-duty wire tires. For most applications, each section will run 10 feet. For areas with grades, we’ll narrow post settings to about 5 feet to ensure the correct tension.

To properly anchor expansive t-post fence installations, we’ll also use heavy corner posts that are set in concrete. This added step will help keep your t-fence tight and upright for many years to come.
