- fencing.bekaert... - #TheFencePros demonstrate the proper way to install a brace with a twitch wire. Braces are the most important element of your fence, the strength of your fence comes from the H-brace. The wood H-brace is an assembly of three posts and bracing wire which creates a strong resistance to the lateral force of the fence.
Our fencing products including high tensile barbed wire, fixed knot, field fence, and horse fence are American-made and produced in our Van Buren, Arkansas, USA, manufacturing facility.

Great instructional video. This will be how I finish building out my H-brace for our hog enclosure. Thanks!
Great to hear Alan. Let us know if you have any questions along the way.
Awesome job I learned something new every time I watch it
That's our goal! Glad we are hitting the spot on our videos.
Excellent details in his explanations.
Thanks for the feedback!
thanks for the instructions, this was so useful
Thanks again for sharing your project with us Lia. We loved seeing the pictures and appreciate the kind words.
Great detail thanks. One question, if I’m bracing my corner posts tomorrow with 12 g twitch wire, and I have the strainright ratcheting tensioners but I don’t have crimps yet, is there a safe way to tie off the wire on the other side of the ratcheting tensioner other than a crimp….? I don’t have a gripple either. Thanks :)
Great video!
What is the PSI rating of the high tensile smooth wire that you guys are using in this installation? I was thinking to purchase the 179K PSI Reddie Reel that's on your website but wasn't sure if that's what I should use or if I should use the 200K PSI smooth wire that sold as a 2000' coil. Please advise. Thank you!
Hi sir bahut achha pr main english ko nhi samjh pa rha rhu, pr video me achha samjhaya gya hai
Hola ,¿cómo están? Quisiera saber si para un alambre de 7 hilos precisaría 1 o dos h brace para el anclaje . Muchas gracias y muchos saludos
I have a 3 acre plot of land and it’s squared shape. How many h frames do I need?
2 per corner. If its a square corner then they will be 90 degrees from each other in the direction of the fence.
Which of these post wasthe end post . The one on the left or the right as we were looking at it.
Good question, it's the one on the right-hand side.
So you leave the in line strainer on each h post?! What if you have 20 h posts in your complete fence? You purchase 20 in line strainers? Wish you had made these more clear.
Yes. The strainer stays attached for life of the H post. Tighten over time if necessary.
Why is it some farms have their wood centre compression member at a diagonal angle instead of horizontal?
There are a few different types of braces. When it is at a diagonal it's called a N brace. This is a H brace.
How do you prevent the wire from snapping
Don't tension it too much. Remember with high tensile wire, you simply need to pull it tight- do not stretch it.
So the in-line strainer stays on when your done?
Yes! Keep it on there to hold the tension in the smooth wire.
What gauge wire did you use?
We used 12.5 ga high tensile wire that we offer.
Load of BS. Been a million corner or end post's made up with number 9 wire and a stick or steel rod! don't need to figure 8 just wrap around the posts, drive staples in loose and shove a stick in between the wires and twist. Put the stick in where one end will hit the horizontal so it can't release. Tore out many barbwire fences that were built like this and they lasted till the wire was rusted into.
The boys spend a lot of money where a 1" stick works silently.
