If you need
ranch and farm fence installation in North Houston, Ark Fence Company builds secure, long-lasting fences that protect your land, livestock, and property. We specialize in designing and installing custom ranch-style rail fences, strong wire-and-wood combinations, livestock-safe enclosures, and acreage perimeter fencing built specifically to handle the expansive needs and diverse terrain of Texas conditions. Our experienced crew ensures every post is durable enough for decades of reliable performance.
Ranch-Style Fence Designs
Whether you’re securing a few acres or an entire ranch, we build ranch-style fencing that fits your land, your animals, and your long-term goals. Our ranch and farm fences are designed to withstand heavy use, changing weather, and uneven terrain while keeping your property looking clean and professional. We use high-grade cedar and pressure-treated pine for superior resistance against rot and insects.
Popular ranch-style designs include:
- Three-rail and four-rail fencing: The classic, high-visibility perimeter definition.
- Round rail fencing: Provides a classic, durable look with smooth edges.
- Board rail fencing: A traditional ranch aesthetic with high strength.
- Diamond rail fencing: A unique, decorative profile often used for front pastures.
- Custom fence lines: Expertly laid out for curved, sloped, or irregular properties to maintain consistent height and security.
We’ll walk your land, map the fence line, and recommend the right layout to keep everything enclosed safely—ensuring no gaps, no weak points, and superior post stability over long, open runs.

Fencing Options for Horses and Livestock
Livestock fences must do more than simply define your property line—they need to keep animals safely contained without risking injury. We specialize in building enclosures designed specifically for the size and temperament of your animals, utilizing material combinations that maximize visibility and prevent escapes.
We build livestock-safe fences for:
- Horses (often require highly visible, smooth materials)
- Cattle and large bovine stock
- Goats, sheep, and other small livestock enclosures
- Donkeys, mules, and other farm animals
Key features we focus on for animal safety and containment:
- Visibility: Using contrasting rail spacing or white vinyl-coated wire so horses can clearly see the boundary.
- Strength: Installing posts and rails that stand up to pressure, rubbing, and high impact.
- Safety: Ensuring smooth edges, proper height, and secure fasteners to minimize the risk of injury.
- Longevity: Selecting materials that hold up to moisture, sun, and abrasive soil movement.
For secure entry and exit points, you can also combine livestock fencing with
Gate Installation & Automation for heavy-duty gates built to handle large equipment.
Wire & Wood Combo Fences
Wire-and-wood fencing is one of the strongest and most practical options for ranches and farms throughout Magnolia, The Woodlands, and surrounding North Houston areas. This combination provides the best balance of security, visibility, and value for extensive acreage.
These fences offer the best of both worlds:
- Wood rails: Provide visibility, structural stability, and a classic aesthetic.
- Field wire, no-climb wire, or horse wire: Safely and securely keeps smaller animals enclosed without high cost.
- Budget-friendly: Highly economical compared to full multi-rail fencing over large distances.
Common combinations we install:
- Rail fence with field wire: Versatile and strong for general livestock.
- Rail fence with no-climb wire: Highly recommended for horses due to smaller grid openings.
- Rail fence with welded wire: Provides a rigid and secure barrier.
- Wire-only livestock fences: Supported by reinforced corner and line posts for secure perimeter definition.
If you already have rail fencing, we can professionally add wire to increase security and containment without requiring replacement of the entire structure.
Ranch Fence Durability & Maintenance
North Houston ranch fences face intense challenges: heat, humidity, shifting soil, and storm winds. That’s why we build every fence with materials and hardware made to last, ensuring a long-term, low-maintenance solution for your acreage.
Our builds focus on longevity:
- Pressure-treated or cedar posts set deep with appropriate materials for maximum stability and resistance to ground-level rot.
- Heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant fasteners that prevent loosening over time due to weather cycles.
- Optional metal post upgrades for critical sections or maximum longevity.
- Weather-resistant wire options that resist rust and prevent long-term sagging.
- Protective stains and finishes to extend the life of wood rails.
Maintenance is minimal—just occasional inspection and tightening—but we offer rapid repair services for storm damage, livestock impact, rot, or general wear.
