Ring lock fencing is quick and easy to erect, perfect for the fence line of paddocks.
If you are looking for a cost-effective rural fencing solution to secure your animals, ring lock fencing might be just what you need. Ring lock fencing has two components. One side consists of 3 or 4 upright steel poles with cross rails attached at regular intervals using U-shaped clips, enabling the interlocking connection between adjacent sections. The other component is the mesh panel which slides into place. A vertical picket can be added between poles to achieve greater post spacing and added strength. Manufactured mesh panels are available in either plain, heavy, or standard galvanised wire and come in heights ranging from 150mm up to 300mm high. A 6 Strand Ringlock Fence 700mm X 200m may cost about $450.

A ring lock fence is also easy to remove, simply lift the mesh panel clear of the locking mechanism at the bottom, slide it upwards and unhook it from the top rail.

When installing a fence post, it is important to ensure that the post is securely anchored in the ground. One way to do this is to sink the post into the ground.
Dig a hole in the ground that is big enough to fit the post. Start with the posts at the corners.
For added strength, pour some concrete into the bottom of the hole and mix it with water until it is thick enough to form a paste.
Place the post in the hole, and make sure it is straight.
Pour the concrete mixture over the post, and make sure it is packed tightly around the post.
Let the concrete dry, and then secure the fencing to the post. Use a strainer for fast installation of the fence wires.
