01 / Built for the Property

Based in Sunset, Louisiana

A WORKING FENCE STARTS WITH A CLEAR PURPOSE.

Southland builds ranch fencing for pastures, property boundaries, interior divisions, and access points throughout Lafayette and Acadiana.

The first question is not simply what the fence should look like. It is what the fence needs to do. Animals, terrain, equipment access, road frontage, gates, and future maintenance all affect the right layout.

Ranch fencing is one part of Southland’s broader residential, agricultural, and commercial fence work. Each project is planned for the property in front of us.

02 / Fence Configurations

Use Before Appearance

THE RIGHT SYSTEM FOR THE JOB.

Wire, posts, gates, corners, and transitions should work together as one complete fence system.

01

Perimeter fencing

Fence lines planned around property boundaries, road frontage, neighboring land, and existing conditions.

02

Pasture divisions

Interior lines that help organize the property while accounting for movement, gates, and access routes.

03

Wire + post systems

Post and wire configurations selected according to the animals, pressure on the fence, terrain, and project scope.

04

Gates + transitions

Openings and connection points planned for vehicles, equipment, livestock, and daily use.

03 / Planning the Fence Line

READ THE LAND BEFORE SETTING THE LINE.

A long fence line makes small planning decisions matter. Grade changes, wet areas, corners, tension points, existing structures, and access all shape the work.

  • 01Property layout and approximate footage
  • 02Animals and intended use
  • 03Gate locations and opening widths
  • 04Terrain, corners, and transitions
  • 05Material and maintenance priorities

04 / Gates + Access

ACCESS SHOULD BE PART OF THE PLAN.

Gate placement affects how vehicles, trailers, equipment, animals, and people move through the property. We consider the approach, opening width, swing, nearby fence lines, and normal traffic before the gate becomes part of the scope.

07 / Common Questions

RANCH FENCE FAQ

What type of ranch fence is right for my property?

The right configuration depends on what the fence needs to contain or protect, the size and grade of the property, gate access, maintenance expectations, and budget. We review those conditions before recommending a layout.

Can ranch fencing include wire and wood posts?

Yes. Ranch fencing can combine wood posts with wire selected for the property and its intended use. Post layout, corners, transitions, and wire configuration are planned as part of the scope.

Do you install gates with ranch fencing?

Yes. Gates can be included for vehicles, equipment, animals, and everyday property access. Placement and opening width should be planned around how the property is actually used.

Can you divide pastures or separate areas within a property?

Interior fence lines can be considered along with the main perimeter. The layout depends on the property, access routes, intended use, and the complete project scope.

Do you build ranch fencing outside Lafayette?
