Fencing is what many businesses rely on for security and organising, agricultural businesses especially depend on it for daily tasks. Whether it is used in large-scale farming, property management, or security purposes, fencing is essential for smooth operations. However, such an important feature comes with problems like being time-consuming, labour-intensive, and physically demanding. On larger properties fence installation is time consuming and expensive. FastFencer, a game-changing piece of equipment, simplifies how rural fencing is done. This is a bookmarking blog for people associated with the agricultural industry and fencing contractors. Let’s start with it now!


What Is a FastFencer?

The FastFencer is a specialised piece of equipment designed to streamline and simplify the process of erecting rural fences. Often referred to as the "wire spinner" or "quick fencer," the FastFencer is a machine that makes fencing not only quicker but safer and less physically taxing for both contractors and farmers. It’s specifically designed to address the challenges of large-scale fencing, making it an indispensable tool for anyone working with extensive fencing projects.


The standard FastFencer is designed to pick up to three fencing mesh rolls, each between 900mm and 1.8 metres high, and up to 250 metres in length, in a single lift. For larger feral fence projects, an option is available for rolls up to 500 metres long, making it an even more powerful tool for vast properties.


Enhanced Features for Large-Scale Projects

The FastFencer is designed for large-scale feral exclusion fencing projects, ideal for broadacre farms needing to protect crops and livestock from animals like wild dogs, kangaroos, and pigs. It can be upgraded to carry fencing rolls up to 500 metres, reducing downtime and improving efficiency. Compatible with various mesh sizes from 900mm to 1.8 metres, the FastFencer is versatile enough for both standard livestock and high-tensile feral fences, making it an essential tool for diverse fencing needs.


Key Benefits of Using a FastFencer

Massive Savings on Labour Costs

Fencing takes a lot of labour, especially on large rural properties. Traditionally, fencing projects required a team of workers to perform tasks like manually unrolling and tensioning wire mesh. With the FastFencer, these jobs can be finished by one operator, negating the need for so much labour. This results in labour cost savings because it can carry and tension multiple rolls of wire at once.


As fencing contractor jobs and farm maintenance costs rise, the ability to reduce labour needs becomes essential. The FastFencer offers an efficient solution that reduces both the workforce and time required to complete large fencing projects.


Improved Safety

Fencing tasks can be very difficult and dangerous especially when they are located on rough areas or uneven grounds. Injury is unavoidable while managing the bulky rolls of wire mesh as well as adjusting its tensioning manually. Safety was an underlying consideration for this FastFencer machine. It achieves this by allowing operators to carry out most of their duties from the ease of an operator’s chair thereby relieving them from manual lifting, strain and even going physical with such materials.


The FastFencer’s clamps, located on both sides of the machine, also improve safety by allowing the operator to work efficiently in either direction around the property, reducing unnecessary movements and potential risks.


Quicker Fencing Projects

Time is money, especially in farming. The FastFencer enables fencing projects to be completed in a fraction of the time it would take using traditional methods. After lifting up to three rolls of fencing mesh, the operator can quickly tie the first roll to a strainer and simply drive the machine forward to unroll and tension the wire when ready. Once the mesh is aligned, it can be clamped tightly from the operator’s cabin, ensuring precision and consistency throughout the fence line. This reduces the time spent walking back and forth to adjust or tension the wire, making the entire process significantly faster.


For large properties requiring kilometres of fencing, the FastFencer's ability to pick up multiple rolls and work efficiently in both directions means that massive areas can be fenced in a relatively short time. This allows farmers and contractors to move on to other tasks more quickly, boosting productivity.


How to Use a FastFencer

A FastFencer operator should be well-versed with the working of the machinery before using it. FastFencer is designed for fencing contractors and farmers, keeping ease of use in mind. With proper knowledge and practice, an operator can quickly get to work, without the need for extensive training. Here’s a basic overview of how the FastFencer works:

  • Loading the Rolls: Place the three rolls on the ground and line up with the three spikes. Drive forward ensuring the three poles are fully in the rolls, before vertically raising the rolls with your parent machine. DO NOT vertically lift the rolls until you have done this. The mesh rolls will not smoothly slide down the poles and will grab. Over time this will bend the poles and adversely effect the smooth efficient unraveling of the rolls.
  • Driving without tension: From the operator's cabin, drive the machine forward along the fence line. The mesh will unroll evenly as the machine moves, and the wire can be tensioned by driving the machine forward to the desired level when it’s time to tie it off.
  • Tying Off the Wire: Once the rolls are in place, tie the first roll to the starting strainer. Using the clamping mechanism, the operator can clamp the wire tight from their cabin seat, ensuring precision without manual adjustment.
  • Join the next roll: At any stage the operator will need to join the three rolls together. This process is so much easier with the rolls vertical firmly in place on the Fast Fencer. 
  • Finished the three rolls: Depending on the length of the rolls used, you can reloaded and go again. If you’ve just put up 1.5k of fence, you may just call it a day! 


Why You Need a FastFencer for Your Property?

For large-scale rural operations, time and labour savings are crucial. Investing in a FastFencer can reduce fencing costs, improve worker safety, and complete fencing projects more quickly and efficiently. Whether you’re a fencing contractor, a farm owner, or managing a large property, the FastFencer is a must-have piece of equipment for anyone looking to improve their fencing processes.


If you're looking for a FastFencer for sale, explore the options available to find the right model for your needs. With its ability to handle large-scale fencing projects and its versatility, the FastFencer is an investment that pays off in reduced labour costs and increased productivity.


Simplifying Large-Scale Fencing with the FastFencer

Large-scale fencing is very demanding in terms of labour and time as a vast part of the property is covered. The FastFencer stands out as a game-changer for every rural worker, saving them time, and labour costs, increasing productivity, and a safe procedure. For livestock enclosure, feral animal exclusion, and property boundaries, FastFencer is an essential tool that excels on all fronts.

PostPuncher

Can a PostPuncher Be Used for Windy or Wet Weather Conditions?

16 April 2025
When it comes to fencing jobs in windy or wet conditions, some contractors slow down or postpone work entirely. Mud, solid ground, and boggy terrain often mean that driving becomes more frustrating than productive. But what if the right piece of machinery could change that? Enter the PostPuncher, a skid steer post driver designed to tackle the demands of post installation, even when the weather turns against you. The Aussie Weather and Ground Conditions In Australia, winters in the southern regions bring frequent rainfall, soft soils, and even frost in some areas. In contrast, the northern parts can remain dry, though occasional tropical downpours still create muddy paddocks. Fencing contractors working year-round face all these variations and more. Most equipment tends to struggle with wet soils that offer little resistance, causing posts to wobble or sink unevenly. Too much solid ground can also be incredibly resistant to conventional tools, chewing up time and energy. That’s where having the right gear, something built tough and versatile, makes all the difference. What Makes the PostPuncher Stand Out? The PostPuncher isn't just another attachment; it's a machine built for operators who rely on precision and reliability. It attaches easily to a skid steer or front-end loader, giving it a mobility advantage. In winter, when paddocks are muddy and access routes are limited, having a compact, skid steer-mounted post driver is the way to go. Operators can charge through soft terrain more easily without churning up the ground too much. That’s ideal for farms looking to avoid turning wet paddocks into a mud pit. What’s more, the PostPuncher’s design allows for consistent driving force with minimal bouncing or misalignment. This is important when the soil is soft, too much vibration can loosen the surrounding earth and leave you with a wobbly fence line. Working Through Wet Soil One of the most frustrating aspects of fencing in damp conditions is when posts won’t stay straight or firm. In soft ground, you might find yourself readjusting the post multiple times before it sits right. The PostPuncher, with its vertical driving action and focus on clean impact, reduces that fuss. It delivers a direct, downwards force that helps seat the post in a single motion. The precision and power help to compact the soil around the post as it's driven, reducing the need for manual correction. For fencing contractors working on a tight schedule, even during rainy weeks, this saves hours of adjusting and second-guessing. Handling Harder Winter Soil While some parts of Australia experience wet winters, others face frosty mornings and hardened clay soil. That can bring different issues, especially when the ground becomes stubborn and unyielding. Fortunately, the PostPuncher’s robust build can take on those tougher conditions. Skid steers provide stability and hydraulic power that translates well into post driving, even on resistant ground. You won’t need to jump on the post or waste time trying to pre-dig. The force of the PostPuncher handles most common post sizes without hesitation. Some operators pair the machine with pointed posts or even a pilot hole for the initial guide. But even without those, the hydraulic force generated is often enough to break through winter-hardened top layer of soil. More Than Just Tough, It’s Smart to Use There’s no denying that wet and winter work is slower than dry-season fencing. But smart machinery like the PostPuncher helps even the playing field. Rather than delaying projects until spring or summer, contractors can keep moving, meeting deadlines and taking on more work through the year. This is especially important for larger rural properties where fencing isn’t just a weekend job. Waiting for ideal weather isn’t always an option when livestock need to be managed or boundaries shifted. Save Fuel, Time and Labour Fencing in wet conditions usually means your tools may have to work harder, your team moves slower, and your vehicle burns more fuel trying to get into place. With a skid steer post driver like the PostPuncher, you’re running a compact, nimble setup that’s built for efficiency. No need for tractors pulling heavy trailers or back-breaking manual hammering. The PostPuncher reduces physical fatigue while boosting output, meaning you get more done with less effort. Built for Australian Conditions QuikFence doesn’t just support any equipment. They supply machinery that suits the conditions Aussie farmers and contractors actually deal with. The PostPuncher’s design reflects that. Built tough, easy to mount, and reliable in real-world terrain, this machine won’t sit idle in the shed waiting for the perfect dry day. It’s an essential addition to any fencing contractor’s fleet or long-term investment for larger farms wanting to take control of their fencing work. Should You Consider a PostPuncher for Winter Jobs? Absolutely, if staying productive year-round is on your list. Wet weather and winter work don’t have to mean delays and inefficiency. With the right equipment, you can press on with confidence. Whether you’re fencing paddocks for cattle, repairing storm-damaged sections, or setting new boundaries after a property subdivision, having a reliable skid steer post driver in your lineup means one less thing to worry about.

Can a Kinghitter Post Driver Work Efficiently in All Weather Conditions?

28 March 2025
For Aussie farmers and fencing contractors, protecting and securing is an essential part of their day-to-day operations. Fencing is a proven prevention method for wild animals, efficient land division, and structured livestock management. However, professionally engineered fencing equipment has a relatively higher importance than conventional fencing ways. The top choices for post installation include the KingHitter, a robust and reliable machine best suited for Australian needs. This equipment is designed to efficiently drive fence posts into the ground quickly and securely. The common question among users, however, is whether a KingHitterpost driver will be as efficient even in changing and adverse weather conditions of the country. Let’s find out through this blog. Understanding Weather’s Impact on Fencing Australia’s varied climate ranges from extreme heatwaves to heavy rain, cold snaps to dry spells. These conditions also delay fencing projects and cause difficulties in post driving. From the sunbaked outback to coastal regions with high rainfall, the ground can range from rock-hard and dry to waterlogged and unstable. The efficiency of any fencing equipment, including the Kinghitter, depends largely on how well it can handle these variations. How Dry and Hard Ground Affects Post Driving In various regions of Australia, especially in the summer, the soil can become very dry and compacted. Traditional post drivers often have difficulty in these conditions, needing extra force and frequently resulting in bent or misaligned posts. The Kinghitter rammer, on the other hand, is engineered with high-impact force and hydraulic adjustments that enable it to effectively penetrate the tough ground. For particularly tough terrain, the Kinghitter can be equipped with specialised rock spike attachments, which help break through compacted soil and ensure that posts are installed securely. This is particularly beneficial in drought-prone areas where the ground can be as hard as concrete. Handling Wet and Muddy Conditions Heavy rain and prolonged wet weather can make post installation tricky, as muddy soil may cause posts to slip, shift or sink. This can be a common issue in regions that experience seasonal rainfall or flooding. The Kinghitter offers precision control through its hydraulic adjustments, allowing operators to manage depth and alignment with ease. Additionally, the high-powered ramming force helps to compact the soil around the post, reducing movement once the ground starts drying out. This is especially helpful where poor ground conditions make the soil unstable and will cause fence lines to shift over time. To increase stability in such conditions even further, operators may employ larger posts or apply gravel at the bottom for added stability. Maintenance for Year-Round Performance One of the standout features of the Kinghitter Post Driver is its ability to handle different terrains across Australia. KingHitter can conquer all kinds of grounds for the secure installation of posts, that stand the test of time and stay rigid. A post driver’s ability to function at its best also depends on its build. QuikFence guarantees fencing solutions that not only meet but exceed user expectations. It showcases a perfect blend of expertise and cutting-edge equipment when working in the field. To keep the Kinghitter in top working condition, operators should: Regularly lubricate hydraulic components Check security features to protect from hammer drop Inspect the ramming mechanism for damage after working in rocky terrain Store the machine in a covered area when not in use to prevent weather-related deterioration By performing routine maintenance, users can ensure their King hitter post pounder remains in peak condition, no matter the season. Final Thoughts For farm fencing, the KingHitter is the ultimate choice. The diverse weather conditions on the Australian landscape pose a real-life challenge to the farmers and fencing contractors. Making this valuable investment will serve them in the long term when soil conditions become an issue. This machine provides the power and control needed to install posts efficiently and securely.
