Expert Horse Fence Installer in Ontario | Allen Fence Company
Horse fencing isn’t just about keeping animals contained — it’s about keeping them safe. A rail that catches a hoof, a wire that’s hard to see at a distance, a gate that doesn’t latch: any of these can injure a horse or put one on the road. We’re a horse fence installer serving Ontario, and we build to the specific demands of equine properties: clear sightlines, smooth surfaces, no exposed hardware, and materials that won’t trap a leg if a horse tests the line.
We work on paddocks, riding rings, pasture perimeters, and mixed-use properties across Ontario. Every project starts with a written quote and is built by our own family-owned crew — no subcontractors, no hand-offs.
Turnout paddocks
Wood rail with clear sightlines so horses see the boundary and respect it.
Riding rings
Tighter sightlines and a contained perimeter for arenas and exercise areas.
Pasture perimeters
No-climb wire mesh for longer perimeter runs, with openings too small for a hoof to catch.
Mixed livestock
Running horses alongside cattle or other livestock. We’ll keep horse paddocks on rail or no-climb mesh and use high-tensile only where it’s safe to.
Types of Horse Fencing We Install
Post & Rail
The classic choice — cedar or pressure-treated posts with 2 or 3 wood rails. Strong, highly visible, and well-suited to paddocks and horse properties of any size.
Flex Fence
Polymer rail that flexes on impact and springs back — no splinters, no sharp edges if a horse makes contact. High-visibility and low-maintenance.
Equibraid
Braided electrical rope fence — visible, electrifiable, and effective. Runs as a standalone system or as a hot-wire topper on existing post and rail.
Pole Fence
Round cedar or pine poles with a natural, rustic look. A solid choice for paddock perimeters, driveways, and open pastures where aesthetics matter.
Wire Mesh
No-climb mesh attached to wood posts keeps horses in and predators out. Often paired with a top rail for added structure and visibility.
Wood rail
Best for: boundaries and paddocks
✓Easy for horses to see at a distance
✓Classic paddock look
✓Cedar or hemlock, 2 to 4 rails
No-climb mesh
Best for: long perimeter runs
✓Openings too small to catch a hoof
✓Stops climbing and pushing through
✓Good layered with rail for foals
What we don’t recommend
High-tensile wire works well for cattle, not horses — it’s hard to see and risky on contact. Barbed wire is off the table entirely for horse properties, regardless of cost.

How we install horse fencing in Ontario
From your first call to the final walkthrough, here’s what working with Allen Fence Company looks like.
1
Written estimate
We start with a written quote — no verbal guesses. Depending on the property, we’ll use satellite imagery to map the fence line or come out for an on-site visit, whichever gives you the more accurate number. Either way, you’ll have something in writing before any work starts.
2
Layout and planning
Before posts go in, we confirm gate placement, corner locations, and any grade changes along the line. Horse fencing needs to account for how your animals move — where they push, where they pace the fence line — and we factor that in before breaking ground.
3
Installation — our crew, start to finish
We don’t use subcontractors. The same family-owned team that quoted your fence installs it. Posts are set to consistent depth, rails checked for level, and gates hung and adjusted on site. We’ve done horse fence installation in Ontario on properties of every size, from single paddocks to full multi-acre perimeters.
