Unroll the wire carefully to avoid kinks and tangles, then secure one end to your starting post with a staple or tie-off. Pull the wire along your fence line with steady tension using a hand winch or come-along, keeping it level and straight. Secure the wire to each post with staples spaced about 100mm apart, then finish with a proper knot or crimp at the end post to maintain tension. Tips: Don't over-tension the wire on hot days—it'll pull tight and snap when temperature drops. Keep your wire off the ground and away from moisture when storing to prevent rust, and always cut off any kinked sections rather than trying to straighten them out. Use proper tensioning tools instead of hand strength alone; you'll get better results and save your back.
