Type of Deer Fence We Install

Deers can jump over even tall obstacles, so choosing the right type of deer fence is important. Your fence needs to be at least 5 to 6 ft. high and be very tight and well-supported. DFL Fencing comes up with the best deer fencing design for your property to keep wild deer out.

We offer a wide range of deer fence options, including:

Metal Deer Fence

Metal deer fences are constructed using high-tensile wire and durable materials, ensuring maximum strength and longevity. They are quite effective at withstanding environmental wear and tear, and their robust nature makes them a preferred choice for protecting large farms. The metal structure helps to effectively prevent deer from breaching the perimeter, safeguarding your crops and property.

Electric Deer Fence

Electric deer fences are another popular option for keeping wild deer at bay. They work by delivering a mild electric shock to any animal that comes in contact with them, effectively deterring them from trying to breach the perimeter. Electric fencing is safe and humane, as the shock is only temporary and does not cause any lasting harm to animals.

Plastic Deer Fence

Plastic deer fences are lightweight and cost-effective options for smaller properties. They are made from high-quality, strong, flexible plastic mesh. The plastic material makes it easy to install and maintain while providing an effective barrier against deer. It also blends well with the natural surroundings, making it a visually appealing choice for your property.

High-Tensile Deer Fence

High-tensile deer fences are made from heavy-duty, high-tensile wire that is highly resistant to damage and wear. They are designed to be extremely tight and sturdy, making it difficult for deer to penetrate through. The durability of these fences makes them a long-lasting option for protecting your property from deer damage.

Based on the deer population and type of property, our experts will recommend the best type of deer fence for your specific needs. Whether it’s your backyard, a small garden, or a large farm, we have the perfect deer fencing solution for you. Contact us now!
