H Brace Mistakes
•
Angles formed by horizontal bar, end post
and brace wire are wrong. Result? The end post
lifts up as you see to the right. Solutions? Either
lower the brace bar or use a longer cross bar (10 ft
or more). We now use an 8 ft long post as a brace
bar but we set it only 36" above the soil. The
brace wire attaches at the same 36" point.
•
End post too small and/or not buried deep
enough. For fences 3 to 4 ft tall, use 8" diameter
end posts. Drive or set them 4 ft deep.
•
Using floating braces. Regrettably we tried this
design. They all ultimately failed.
•
Live wires touching brace wires. When this
occurs, as it does when posts move (like those
shown at right have done), contact will occur and
the fence will short out.
Cross brace is too short and
set too high—allowing end post
to be pulled out of the ground
by the tension of wire fence.
