Farm Fence Installation in Sterling, OK
Lawton Farm Fence is a farm fence contractor serving Sterling, Oklahoma. We build field fence, high-tensile and electric wire, barbed wire, pipe corrals, board fence, and farm gates for cattle, horse, and goat ground. Licensed and insured in Oklahoma.
Sterling sits where SH-17 crosses SH-65 in the lower northeast corner of Comanche County, with Duncan about as far off in one direction as Lawton is in the other. That puts it in ranch ground, not commuter ground. The work out here is pasture division, cross fencing for rotation, and pens that a man can sort cattle in alone.
Rotational grazing changes the fence spec. A perimeter carries five strands of barbed wire, roughly four and a half feet tall, with the bottom wire about a foot up and the spacing tightening toward the ground where calves try. Interior divisions do not need that. Two or three strands of twelve and a half gauge high-tensile smooth wire on a Gallagher energizer will hold rotated cattle for a fraction of the cost per foot, as long as the ends are strong enough to take the pull.
High-tensile wire moves with the weather. It tightens in a cold snap and slacks in August heat. We hang in-line strainers and tension springs so the slack comes back out with a ratchet in year three instead of a rebuild. The spring shows the tension at a glance from the truck.
Goats go through, horses go over, cattle go against. We spec the fence to the animal you actually run, not to a catalog page.
