Professional Ranch & Deer Fencing in Flower Mound
The outskirts of Flower Mound and surrounding areas like Argyle, Bartonville, and Double Oak still have that rural Texas character. Large lots, gardens, horses, and wildlife including plenty of deer. Protecting a vegetable garden? Fencing a horse property? We build fences for country living.
Deer are beautiful until they eat your landscaping. A single deer can destroy thousands of dollars in plants overnight. An 8-foot deer fence keeps them out while remaining virtually invisible from a distance. For property boundaries and livestock, our ranch rail and agricultural fencing delivers the classic Texas look with lasting durability.
Options From Your Deer Fence Builder
- Black Polypropylene Mesh: Nearly invisible from 20+ feet away. Strong enough to stop deer but doesn't obstruct views. Most popular for residential deer exclusion.
- Welded Wire Fence: Rigid metal mesh on wood or steel posts. More visible but extremely durable. Good for areas with heavy deer pressure.
- High-Tensile Wire: Multiple strands of tensioned wire. Cost-effective for large areas. Can be electrified for additional deterrent.
- Double Fence System: Two parallel fences 4-5 feet apart. Deer won't jump if they can't see a clear landing. Maximum effectiveness.
Deer Fence Height: Why 8 Feet Matters
Deer are incredible jumpers. A healthy white-tailed deer can:
- • Clear 6 feet from a standstill
- • Jump 8+ feet with a running start
- • Squeeze through surprisingly small gaps
- • Push under loose fence bottoms
An 8-foot fence is the minimum for reliable deer exclusion. We install posts deep enough to support the height and secure the bottom to prevent deer from pushing under.
