Introduction to Professional Fencing in Westby, WI


A fence is more than a boundary. On working farms, it is an essential part of animal safety, rotational grazing, and pasture stewardship. On residential properties, it provides privacy, keeps kids and pets safe, and adds value and visual order. For commercial sites, it supports risk management, access control, and customer confidence. Proper material selection, post depth, bracing, and tensioning determine whether a fence survives seasons of freeze thaw cycles, livestock pressure, and heavy winds. Choosing a contractor with decades of field experience ensures your fence is designed for the soils, terrain, and use case on your land, not just installed to a generic spec.
Why Quality Fencing Matters For Farms, Homes, and Businesses
Key Benefits You Get With Jim Ryan Fencing, L.L.C.
Agricultural Expertise Since 1982
We specialize in farm and agricultural fencing and build for the real world conditions of cattle, horses, sheep, goats, and deer. That means correct post spacing, corner bracing, and wire selection tailored to your livestock and acreage.
Full Range of Materials and Styles
We install all major fence types so your final design fits your property, animals, and budget. Options include treated pine fences, locust fences, plastic fences, aluminum fences, ABC fences, rod iron, and chain link fences. If you prefer black locust for superior rot resistance, a classic board fence in treated pine, or the clean lines of aluminum or chain link, we will help you weigh durability, maintenance, and cost.
Residential and Commercial Solutions
From backyard privacy and pool code compliance to business perimeters, dumpster enclosures, and equipment yards, we bring the same craftsmanship to every application.
Motorized and Automated Gate Integration
Secure your driveway, lane, or service entrance with motorized gates sized to your opening and usage. We can pair your fence with automation for smoother access and enhanced security.
Built For Local Conditions
Soils, slopes, and winters around Westby require fences set deeper, braced smarter, and laid out to shed snow and surface water. Our team designs and installs with the region’s climate in mind to reduce movement and maintenance.
Materials and Fence Types We Offer
Treated Pine Fences
A versatile, cost effective choice for privacy panels, split rail, board on board, and farm board styles. Pressure treated pine resists decay and takes stain well for a cohesive yard or farm aesthetic.
Locust Fences
Locust is prized for natural rot resistance, making it ideal for posts in high moisture areas and critical bracing locations on agricultural lines. It is a strong, long lived option for pasture fencing where longevity matters.
Plastic Fences
Vinyl and other plastic systems deliver low maintenance, clean looking boundaries for residential privacy, horse paddocks, and decorative accents. They resist peeling and flaking and clean easily.
Aluminum Fences
Durable and refined, aluminum is popular for pool enclosures, residential front yards, and commercial sites needing a professional look with minimal upkeep.
ABC Fences
We provide ABC fences to meet specific design or specification requests. If you have a site standard or a neighborhood guideline referencing this style, we will match it and ensure proper installation.
Rod Iron
When you want the classic look and strength of iron with custom fabrication options, rod iron delivers a timeless appearance for entries and property frontages. It can be combined with an automated gate for a cohesive entry system.
Chain Link Fences
Tough and economical, chain link works for farms, kennels, play areas, and commercial perimeters. Options include galvanized or color coated mesh, privacy slats, and barbed top where permitted.

FAQs
What fence is best for cattle, horses, sheep, goats, or deer
Cattle often do well with high tensile or woven wire with sturdy corners. Horses benefit from visibility and safe rails or coated wire. Smaller livestock like sheep and goats need tighter mesh to prevent heads from pushing through. Deer containment or exclusion requires taller designs and specific mesh spacing. We review your herd and pasture plan to choose the safest option.
Do you install residential privacy fences
Yes. We build privacy, semi privacy, and decorative styles in treated pine and plastic systems, as well as aluminum and chain link with privacy options.
Can you add a motorized gate to an existing driveway
In many cases yes. We evaluate posts, power availability, opening size, and traffic patterns, then specify automation that fits your use.
How do I get started and what information helps
A sketch or rough dimensions, preferred materials, photos of the area, and any township or neighborhood guidelines are helpful. We will verify details during our site visit.
