Santa Fe’s Premier Wire Fence Experts — Horse Wire, Barbless & Field Fencing

In Santa Fe, the most effective wire fences are horse wire, no-climb wire, and field fencing because they handle uneven terrain, high winds, and rural property lines extremely well. These fence types resist sagging and are ideal for livestock, dogs, and perimeter protection across Santa Fe’s rocky soil.

Wire fence installation in Santa Fe typically ranges from $10–$32 per linear foot, depending on terrain, wire type (horse wire, field fence, barbless), number of H-braces, and the use of lifetime metal posts. Remote areas or rocky conditions may require additional labor and equipment.

Most standard wire, field, and ranch fences do not require a permit within Santa Fe County, especially outside city limits. However, if your property is in a historic district, within the City of Santa Fe limits, or if the fence exceeds certain height requirements, approval may be needed. We help homeowners verify requirements before installation.

Yes — when properly built, wire fences are one of the most durable options for Santa Fe’s climate. Using lifetime metal posts, strong H-braces, and quality tensioning ensures your fence can withstand wind, sun exposure, and soil movement common in northern New Mexico.

For horses and livestock, no-climb horse wire and field fence are the safest and most secure. For large dogs or mixed-use ranch properties, woven wire or no-climb offers excellent containment. Barbless wire can also be added for extra height or perimeter security without injuring animals.
