An IntelliBraid gate used to keep horses out of a
shed with a full hay rack.
Rope and braid gates are easy to set up for use with
any type of livestock.
Electrified gates are inexpensive
and much easier to install than
steel gates. But they’re also much
less durable.
Remember these key principles
about most electrified gates:
1. They are pain barriers.
They
are
not
physical barriers.
So they are not capable of
standing up to physical
crowding by livestock—not
even from sheep or goats.
2. Visibility and effectiveness
are related.
Animals and
humans can’t avoid gates that
they cannot see.
