Horse fences for pasture and farm fencing

Centaur Testimonials

Centaur Fence Saves Stud Colt
I took a three year old stud colt in to train and had turned him out to pasture for a day off. He went up from the pasture to the vicinity of my elevated arena ( which is fenced in Centaur), where I had turned him out [with] another colt, and kicked uphill at the other horse and hung himself in the fence. I saw it happen from the house and by the time I got to him he had kicked free. He only had superficial skinned places and some hematoma in the following days, which I addressed with cold therapy, but it was not necessary to call the vet. I can only begin to imagine what it would have been like on any other type of fence. Experience tells me that I might have lost the horse and all that time I had put in on him not to mention the liability. I have had this Centaur Fencing for more than 10 years now and am convinced it will outlive me. Now I only have to repair or replace a 600 ft run. John M.

Farm fencing crew replaced by Centaur Fencing Systems
Bob Brady, Lexington, KY farm manager, reports that he “replaced 15 miles of wood fence and a 3-man crew with the Centaur system.” His farm will reap decades of lower maintenance costs while increasing the safety for their valuable stock. (Bob Brady)

Pasture fencing pays for itself and prevents injuries to valuable livestock
We had a pony chase 8 heifers around the pasture . . .they all got scared and bunched up together and ran into the fence (as a group) at full speed. It was like a cartoon. They all bounced off in the opposite direction and kept going. The fence held and didn';t even break the 4-inch posts. The fence paid for itself in that moment. C.K. Adams, TN Imagine how tragically C.K.’s story would have ended if she had a board or wire fence!

*Centaur rail fencing has fans of all ages!*
After installing Centaur fence several months ago at our home, we realized that our six month old grandson is equally as excited about the new fence as we are... Sincerely, Scott & Kimberly R. Reid Gulfport, MS ( November 22, 2006)


Fencing for horses bounces back after storm
Just a note with some photos to let you know how well your fencing has held up for us here in Florida...land of storms, hurricanes and tornadoes. We use the fencing for horses and were away for the weekend at a Sheriff Posse event. When we returned, a storm had broken a tree and a huge limb was now resting on the fence, as you can see in the photos. Once the tree and debris was removed, we were able to tighten the fence and it looked great! We are enclosing the photos that you can use for advertising, if you wish. The Citrus County Posse unit has now also purchased this fencing for their new arena. Thank you for a strong and durable product. Sincerely, Don and Carol Bartolet Sun Spots Ranch Dunnellon, Florida ( Sept. 11, 2006)


Centaur is a Good Buy
After comparing different fencing products, I decided that Centaur fencing was a far superior product when comparing appearance and durability, particularly for dollars spent. Phil from Marion, IL

Proud New Centaur Fence Owner
I am extremely satisfied with the looks, installation, and maintenance of your Centaur Fencing System. I have had numerous inquiries about the system and have been proud to recommend your company. Eugene from Florence, AL

Safe Horse Fencing
Our first consideration in choosing Centaur was safety. For the past two years our young stallions have put it through every test imaginable, and it has passed with flying colors. Carolyn from Ottawa, OH

Centaur is Strong and Flexible
A quality product that is strong yet flexible enough to give our horses excellent protection. Ted from Winlock, WA

Low Maintenance Fencing Saves Time
The best fence product I’ve ever seen. We have a small farm and a good portion of my time has always been spent maintaining fences. Not anymore. John from Edgewood, NM

12 Miles of Fencing, 6 Hours of Maintenance = One Happy Fence Owner
We installed 12 miles of Centaur Fencing on our new farm in Saratoga-County, New York, in the spring of 1987, and have spent less than six hours in the past 18 months on maintenance. However, its greatest asset to our operation is the safety factor. Horses just do not get hurt when they come into contact with this fence. Blue Sky Farm

Centaur Survives Another Storm
I installed Centaur HTP Fencing at my home in Alabama because of its durability and low maintenance. Recently, high winds caused several old magnolia trees to fall across this fencing. We simply cut away the fallen trees, tighten the Centaur HTP fencing and it looks good as new. This is the only fence I’ll ever need. Bill from Courtland, AL

A Better Fence that's Easy to Install
Centaur makes a far superior quality fence and it was so easy to install! We get many compliments from people who see it. Okanagan Falls, BC (June, 2001)

Horses Can't Figure Out How to Hurt Themselves on Centaur
The Centaur fence not only looks good but also offers considerable protection to horses doing all the dumb things horses do. Dade City, FL ( February 2000)

Good Fence and Customer Service
Thanks for the great product and the time you took to help me along the way. I will definitely highly recommend you to my friends. E.A. (May, 2000)

Centaur Scores High Marks
I wanted to take a minute and let you know how pleased we are with your products and the level of help we received, before, during, and after the installation . . .When we purchased 50 acres and started thinking about the overwhelming task of fencing and cross fencing, the first thing I did was research different products and different companies. I made countless phone calls, talked to every body I could think of, and requested samples. After explaining our situation to so many different companies, nobody had a suggestion for more affordable, yet safe, fencing until I spoke to you . . .I can’t begin to tell how pleased we are with the integrity, the performance, ease on installation, and looks of this product. M.B. from Myakka City, FL

Spur HTP is WONDERFUL
This letter is long overdue for us to tell you how thrilled we are with the Spur HTP fencing we bought from you five years ago. The fencing is still going strong after dealing with the Pennsylvania weather of cold temperatures, snow, ice as well as high humidity, wind and sun. We have raised Quarter Horses for over 20 years and have used all kinds of fencing—electric, wire, high tensile and wooden rails. Nothing has performed as well as the Spur HTP. When a salesman told us this product would not require any maintenance, we were hesitant to believe that this would stop our worrying about horses breaking the fence and visiting the neighbors. This was the case with electric wire fencing as the visibility for horses, young or old was difficult for the animals to determine. We installed high tensile next and after 3 months injuries resulted in sliced tendons, stitches and weeks of recuperation. The high tensile came down after 6 months as we viewed this as inappropriate fencing for horses. We do have 2 paddocks that are wooden and the replacement of boards and the maintenance are constant. Five of our paddocks are fenced by the Spur HTP. They are WONDERFUL. We can change horses in these paddocks and they can easily see the fence. Once, a young horse was playing and running too hard and flipped over the fence. It was uninjured and the fencing was flexible enough to give to the pressure of the running horse. . . Only some slight abrasions were left on the horse and they were easily cared for without a visit from our veterinarian. Lewisburg, PA (June, 1999)

40 Below is not too Cold for Centaur Fencing
Just wanted to let you know that I had purchased Centaur HTP fencing in 1998. My husband and I installed the fence (fairly easy) and I have been extremely pleased with it. It has been well worth the investment. I was skeptical about this fence being able to hold up to our extreme winters here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan but it has proved me wrong. It has withstood 40 below zero weather and still gave when pushed against. Last year when the snow melted the bottom rail had been “scrunched” together and the brackets were bowed way out, but as soon as it warmed up the fence flattened out and the brackets returned to normal—I’m amazed. Thank you for building such a safe and reliable fence! I have talked a lot of my fellow horse friends into Centaur HTP. I think everyone should have it at their barns. I know it’s all I’ll ever use. Marquette, MI ( March 1999)

Centaur's One Great Fence
We just wanted to let you know that we’ve had our Centaur fence almost a year and we’re thrilled with it. Our old wooden fence had grown so weak that, when our yearling once spooked, he ran right through four different sections of it. Thankfully, he wasn’t injured but we knew we’d been lucky. We wanted a fence that would be strong, safe, good-looking and low-maintenance. Centaur fence was everything we were looking for. Thanks for all your help, and for a great fence! Statesville, NC ( May 1999)

Horses Bounce off Centaur Fencing Unhurt
Our seven week old filly became frightened when the broodmare was bucking and running and the filly ran directly into the Centaur fencing. She just bounced off unhurt. We have not had any incidents of a horse being hurt on the Centaur fencing and we are extremely pleased with it. Sterrett, AL ( June 1999)

Less Worries with Centaur Fencing
Our fences have survived two severe winters, with temperatures ranging from –20 to 0 for weeks at a stretch. There has been no fading, stretching, drooping, or mold/discoloration on the fences. . . We wanted a sturdy fence as our property borders a 55 mph road, which is frequented by logging trucks and other huge vehicles. And since we have a stallion, mares, foals (i.e., not just geldings) good fences help us sleep better at night!! Washburn, WI ( June 1999)

Centaur Pays for Itself
We feel your fencing pays for itself every time the brakes fail on one of our youngsters or a foal puts a leg through a rail. Centaur has a kept our seven horses injury free and given us peace of mind when we leave them. Pass Christian, MS (April 1998)

Centaur Spur Rail Holds Up in Car Crash
The car wound up three feet inside the pasture, snapping off one fence post and pulling one out of the ground. The fencing held up well, stretching but not breaking and it actually stopped the car. When the car was removed, the fence was in place enough to contain the horses. It confirmed my faith that your fencing is the strongest, safest available. Burdett, NY (March 1996)

3 Years and Still a Heck of a Fencing Product
It’s been three years since my installation of the Centaur fencing that you sold us and I wanted to get back to you to express my pleasure with the product. We used the fencing to construct a series of divided pastures to house mares and foals and youngsters in their early growing years. Of primary concern to us when looking for a fencing product was safety for the horses within the enclosures and ease of maintenance. Your product met all our wishes. After I put up the fencing we began moving our mares and foals into the pastures. My wife and I observed foals just learning their boundaries hit the fence and bounce off unhurt. On several occasions we observed mares jockeying for dominance force one or the other into the fence; again without injury to the horse or the fence. We have never had an injury of any kind with your product; nor have we had to repair any fence since its installation. We have nothing but praise for the fencing and your helpful hints during my installation. Centaur Fence has guaranteed a safe pasture and paddock boundary for our horses, coupled with the fact that it’s maintenance-free. In my opinion that translates to one heck of a product. Thanks again. Pleasanton, CA (May 1995)

Our Horses Stay Contained in Centaur Fences
Not only is this fence beautiful to look at but for the first time in a long career of owning, riding and training horses I feel confident that I have provided the very safest, reliable fencing possible. . . I wouldn’t have anything else—no matter what the cost! It’s a wonderful feeling to know that when you turn your horses out in Centaur fencing that’s exactly where they’ll be when you come back! Shepherd, MI (March 1993)
