Stock restraint and access control Anyone that has been living and working in the rural areas of the South Island in the last few years is likely to have seen Boundaryline post-and-rail fences on many farms and lifestyle blocks. With solid, square posts and traditional, straight-through mortise construction, these fences make a real statement. Many farmers have realised the big difference a smart post-and-rail fence can make to their property. The whole appearance of a farm entranceway or driveway can be upgraded a relatively low cost with a fence that looks great but still works well for stock restraint and access control. But Boundaryline is about more than just postand-rail. The Boundaryline range of fencing systems and gates is marketed and distributed nationwide by Terranota Ltd. Marketing Manager at Terranota Ltd, Jay McGaveston says the range covers several different fence systems. “We have a complete range of fencing systems for any property. Whether it’s post-and-rail or effluentpond fencing for farms, or privacy and boundary fences for residential properties – we have the range” he says. “If you’re looking for a new entranceway, a fence to keep the kids safe, or maybe a wind-break fence bedside your patio – we’re here to help.” The Boundaryline range includes same-both-sides coloursteel fences, pool

Fencing getting even easier! Fence-Pro have a full range of post drivers that are easily matched to the diverse fencing conditions commonly found in the Canterbury region. Most fencing contractors use the Fence-Pro Ultra G2 with the Sidemount 900 and add Rock Spikes or augers to suit their local conditions. All Fence-Pro post drivers can be quickly detached from the Sidemount unit and attached directly to the tractor. This is great for the situations when you have to drive straight down the line. If you usually use this technique, you will be interested in the Rear Shift unit. This unit gives the post driver 250mm movement in the direction the tractor is travelling, and is normally used in conjunction with the Ultra G2 or the Mule which have the mast shifting sideways across the tractor.
The two levers that control this 4-way movement are set out so they do exactly what the operator expects which naturally gives you very quick and accurate post placement. On the post driver shown in the photo, the Rock Spike is mounted on the far side of the mast and swings into place by way of a hydraulic ram. This mounting position is safe and ideal for steeper fence lines as the operator moves the Rock Spike in and out of the working position by simply pushing a lever on the control bank. The Rock Spike swings well past the face of the mast in the transport position, so it does not get in the line of sight. This Rock Spike mounting system can also hold the Fence-Pro hydraulic auger and includes a post puller. The 4.5m mast is hinged hydraulically and folds
into a very compact transport position. To find out which post driver and the options which best suit your fencing conditions, please contact the Fence-Pro team on 0800 FNCPRO (0800 362 776).
