Choosing the right horse fence

Horse fences play a crucial role in the safe and effective management of horse pastures. Not only do they provide physical boundaries to prevent horses from escaping. They also contribute to their safety and well-being.

There are several factors to consider for fencing your horse pasture, such as the material, style, height and finish. From traditional wooden fences to modern ecological solutions, the right choice ensures a harmonious and safe environment for both horse and rider.

  1. Wide choice of materialsVarious materials are available for fencing a paddock for horses. On the one hand, we offer various types of wood. Hardwood is very durable and lasts up to at least 30 years. Softwood is the most budget-friendly solution and lasts up to 20 years thanks to our unique Densiforce® production method.
    We also offer the RECO Infinity, our ecological solution made from recycled PMD waste. This is the most sustainable horse fence on the market and will last a lifetime.
  2. Rustic or Modern Horse FencesOur fences come in a variety of styles, ranging from very rustic to modern. Diamond-top finishes exude class, but keep in mind that round finishes are safer for horse and rider. Our fences also come in a variety of colors. For example, we even have a black horse fence in our offerings.
  3. Select the right height and thicknessThe necessary height depends greatly on the animal. Also, the bars should be thick enough so that they are clearly visible to the horse. This ensures that they slow down in time when the horses want to escape and that they do not bump and hurt themselves against the fence. The number of boards is also a customizable choice.
  4. Expert placement in all areas But placement and function also matter. Is it a pasture where the horses graze, or is it a lunging circle or dressage ring? When making your choice, you must also determine whether you will install the fence yourself or outsource the placement. We provide expert placement, taking into account natural curves, difficult level differences and fine straight lines.
  5. Additional accessoriesFinally, you can add a few more options. For example, it is possible to install an electricity wire that teaches the horses to stop looking for the fence. And wire mesh can also be provided to keep other animals inside or outside. Furthermore, you can also add sand or ground boards for a nice finishing touch to your arena.

Our specialists are here to guide you through the selection process to provide the right fence for you and your horse.
