Fencing for rural and acreage properties provides security for our pets, livestock and family and helps keep feral animals out.
At Gleam O Dawn we specialize in materials for rural fencing, dog and puppy fencing and electrical fencing systems as well as consumables required for construction and maintenance.
We stock hardwood round posts, hardwood split post, treated pine posts and steel star picket posts.
For large stock management; horses, cattle and other livestock:
Suitable for smaller livestock and domesticated pets
We stock a range of varing sized rolls of chicken wires suitable for many applications around the property from your chook pen to the vege garden, temporary fencing are just a few of the many uses.
Establishing a permanent fence line is a major cost component of any rural or acreage property. However, if cattle or horses are stocked then the property owner will constantly restraing wire, reastablishing fence posts that have been pushed over.
A convenient and cost effective method of minimising all this extra work is to install an electric fence system.
Consisting of an energizer ( powerpak) insulators, hot line and earth stake, the elcctric fence provides a 24hour protection service to your fence.
Energisers are available as mains, battery, mains and battery combinations and solar powered units.
At Gleam O Dawn we stock a comprehensive range of energizers from the major suppliers of electric fence systems in Australia:
The electrical charge generated by the energizer is transmitted through electric tape or braids. Tape and Braids are available in budget lines and high performance and come in rolls of 200m, 400m and some 500m.
Wider tapes and thicker braids are also stocked for customers who prefer to have their electric fence line more visible for their animals.
If you are keeping animals in are they are either, a) heavy stock horses/cattle, b) lighter stock, sheep, goats, alpaca, or c) pets, including dogs (depending on the size).
Ask whether you require a more traditional hardwood post and split rail fence, treated pine, or a combination of timber and steel sat picket.
Minimum requirements are; post hole shovel, fencing bar, fencing pliers, & a wire straining tool.
Standard fence heights vary from 900mm to 1200mm high.
Is the proposed fence line clear of vegetation on your property boundary line, and is there any slopes or creek crossings?
Consider the metres of fence required, how many corners and where the gate will be positioned. We recommend always to draw a mud map of the fence outline, showing as much detail as possible.
Eliminate the mystery of electric fence failure in 10 easy steps.
Inadequate or poor grounding, loose and hanging wires, damaged fence accessories and many other problems can cause an electric fence to fail.
