The Highland Steel Board Horse Fencing System

Why Choose The Highland Steel Board Fence

Traditional post-and-rail ranch style without the wood upkeep. The Highland steel board fencing is available in 3-rail and 4-rail configurations, built from strong steel with acrylic topcoat finish for lasting durability, no warping, no rot and safe protection for horses and livestock on Canadian farms, ranches and equestrian properties. Sold by the linear foot with all posts included.

Pro Tip: Choose the 4-rail configuration (top rail ~54" installed height) for horse properties to prevent jumping and leaning. The 3-rail setup is ideal for cattle or perimeter runs where extra height is not critical.

Reliable Steel Board Fencing for Canadian Ranches & Farms

The Highland Steel Board Fence replicates the classic post-and-rail look you want for ranches and horse properties, but with steel that eliminates rot, warping and frequent maintenance. All posts and rails are finished with an acrylic topcoat for protection and a smooth appearance. The system is available only in two configurations: 3-rail (classic spacing for cattle or general perimeter) or 4-rail (taller and more secure for horses — top rail height ~54" installed).

Posts measure approximately 100" in length with 3-1/2" × 5-1/8" dimensions (installed height ~57"), while rails span ~114" at 1-3/8" × 5-1/8" for reinforced strength. Overall panel width (including posts) is approximately 9'2" (2800 mm), with overall panel height of 4'9" (1443 mm). Rail spacing is 450 mm between rails.

Does it hold up to livestock? Yes. The smooth steel boards resist cribbing and chewing, providing safe and secure containment for horses, cattle, and other animals. Extreme weather? The paneled steel design keeps posts straight and rails aligned, even through Canadian winters, temperature swings, heavy winds or snow loads.

How It’s Sold: Priced and sold by the linear foot. All posts are included with your order.
