Why HorseGuard?

The development of electric fencing tape radically transformed the concept of horse containment.

HorseGuard is the original electric tape fencing system with proven durability of 20 years.

Sold direct via our online stores at factory pricing and shipped throughout Canada, this Bi-Polar fence tape system is fully effective in snowy, icy or very dry soil conditions – without the need for a problematic ground rod! This is the all-season fencing solution for all weather conditions, which provides an effective VISUAL, MENTAL and PHYSICAL barrier respected by the horse.

The world’s leading choice of horse fence was designed by a horse breeder and developed at LA SANGLIERE. Manufactured to maximize safety, the ORIGINAL tape fencing system delivers security for horses and peace of mind for their owners.

Presented at the famous Paris Horse Show in 1985, HorseGuard won 3 of the 12 awards given:

How Does it Work?

HorseGuard Bi-Polar electric tape fencing is an effective visual, mental and physical barrier powered by a low impedance fence charger strong enough to maintain a minimum of 4000 volts on the tape.

The top green edge of the tape is the positive connected to the (+) on your charger and the bottom edge is the negative connected to the (-) ground on your charger.

Zapping occurs when the horse makes contact with both edges of the tape.

Due to the bi-polarity of the tape (+/-), a ground rod is not required. Even in a sandy, snowy or rocky ground, the conductivity of your fence is assured in all weather conditions.

The Bi-Polar fencing system is your all season, all climate and all round fencing solution.
