Fence Post Braces & Accessories

Whether you’re building a sturdy pasture fence or bolstering a livestock pen, the right braces and accessories for your posts can help them stand the test of time. At Tractor Supply, we stock plenty of these and other fence building supplies — shop now to get started on your project.

Build and Strengthen Your Fences to Last

A fence post brace is a piece of hardware, usually a horizontal wood, metal, or concrete member, used to connect, support and reinforce two or more fence posts. It can help keep them upright, keep the fence wire between them tighter and prevent them buckling under wire tension. This makes it useful in high-tensile barbed wire and electric fences, for fencing in windy areas and in enclosures with lots of animal activity.

H vs. Angle Braces

Fence bracing can be done using one of a couple crossmembers. H-braces are made up of two vertical posts and a horizontal connecting beam, and they are used to shore up corners and ends. Meanwhile, angle braces are diagonal pieces that create a triangular shape. This structure adds support compared to H-braces.

Accessories You’ll Need

Besides the braces for the fence themselves, consider grabbing brace pins to help you secure your horizontal brace posts to upright posts. The job may also call for brace wire to help you make a tensioned connection between brace and corner or end posts. An in-line strainer can help join and tighten both standard and high-tensile wire and maintain its tension.

FAQs About Fencing Braces and Accessories

How do I put a brace in my fence?

Be sure to follow any directions from manufacturers for whatever parts you're working with. Generally, you’ll start by driving your end posts to depths of anywhere from 3.5-5.5 inches, depending on fence height and the kind of soil you're working in. Make sure the spacing between any is at least 2.5 times your fence's height. Then, run a guide wire from one to the other. Drive all the line posts you want along the guide wire, between the brace posts. Next, fit the braces between the tops of the end posts and brace posts and install them with brace pins if called for. Install any brace wire and inline strainer you need to use.

What tools and equipment do I need to install a fence brace?

Use protective equipment such as gloves, safety glasses, work boots and hearing protection. If you need to cut wood for braces, you may need a chainsaw or hand saw. Digging holes for posts may require a shovel, post hole digger or hand auger. Use a wire cutter to snip fencing, a hammer to drive nails or staples and a wrench for any tightening.
