Warning Signs: Safety You Can See
For your animals an electric fence is a clear boundary, but walkers, cyclists and children do not always recognise it as such. Warning signs make it clear that the fence is live and that animals in the field should not be disturbed. Along public footpaths and roads in particular, clearly visible marking is part of running an electric fence responsibly and considerately.
Notices Around the Electric Fence
The classic Caution Electric Fence sign is fixed directly to the conductor or the post. Hook in signs are printed on both sides and simply hung on polywire, rope or tape, so they can be read from either side. Put the signs up at regular intervals and above all where paths run along the fence or where people might touch it. That way everyone knows straight away what to expect.
Notices for Field and Stable
Signs help away from the current too. A Do Not Feed sign protects horses and other grazing animals from bread, grass clippings and other food that can harm them. A sign warning of a bull in the field points out a real danger. Notices such as No Entry to the Field, Valuable Livestock or No Entry Due to Risk of Disease protect herd and stable from uninvited visitors and from diseases being brought in. There are also signs specifically for pig units. With a few well placed signs you communicate clearly and politely what applies on your land.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I put warning signs on an electric fence?
As a rule of thumb, place a sign at regular intervals along paths, plus at gates, corners and access points. What matters is that a sign is clearly visible from every point along the path.
Why should I put up a Do Not Feed sign?
Well meant food from passers by, such as bread or grass clippings, can cause colic in horses. A friendly notice on the fence protects your animals and explains the reason to visitors.
Do the signs stand up to wind and weather?
The signs are made of weatherproof plastic and are designed for outdoor use. Fix them tightly so that they do not flap in the wind and rub against the conductor.
Warning Signs for Electric Fences, Fields and Stables
A friendly, clear notice avoids many misunderstandings at the electric fence. Here you will find warning signs reading Caution Electric Fence, which you fix to the post or hang directly on the conductor as a hook in sign. They can be read from both sides and show walkers on either side that the fence is live. On top of that there are signs for the field, such as Do Not Feed, No Entry to the Field or a warning of a bull running loose. For stable and yard there are notices such as Valuable Livestock or No Entry Due to Risk of Disease, including some specifically for pig units. Hang the signs where they are easy to see on paths, gates and access points, then visitors know straight away what applies. That way you protect people and animals alike and help everyone get along well around your pasture.
