Common Applications
Poultry / Wild Fowl
Poultry fencing is designed for two main purposes:
To keep chickens or other poultry safely contained
To deter common predators such as dogs and foxes from entering the enclosure
We understand that keeping your chickens and turkeys secure is extremely important; Tornado Wire’s High Tensile Poultry Fencing provides a secure barrier to do exactly that. It was developed following consultation with a leading poultry and egg specialist who required a bespoke solution to their fencing requirements. It keeps chickens in, while effectively deterring predators and achieves this while remaining cost-effective.
The LHT15/158/8 is manufactured from 2mm High Tensile wire, its spring-like properties enable the fence to flex under pressure, but still remain secure. In addition, 80mm vertical wires help to ensure birds are kept safe from harm. It features the traditional, cost-effective hinge joint which enables the netting to be turned out or cranked for use in special applications.
A Tornado free range poultry farm fence would usually be erected with approximately 330mm turned out, delivering a finished fence height of 1250mm. It can be used in conjunction with an off-set electric wire.

Ground Contact
Zinc and zinc aluminium coated agricultural fence service life can be affected significantly when exposed to extremely acidic or saline environments and this factor should be considered when designing your fence installation. For typical service life to be achieved it is recommended that the product must be installed in an atmosphere with corrosively class C1, C2 or C3 (very low/low/medium) in accordance with ISO 9223 and must not come into contact with substances that will accelerate corrosion, including but not limited to fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides, salt water and soils of pH lower than 5.5. Particularly at sites with peaty and wet ground conditions it is recommended that you have the soil pH tested prior to designing your installation.
