Barbed wire fencing, also known in Australia as barb wire or wire fence, has been a key solution for property protection, livestock control, and perimeter security for more than a century. Made from high-tensile steel wire twisted together with sharp barbs at set intervals, it remains one of the most reliable and economical fencing options available.

By installing barb wire fencing, you reduce the risk of unauthorised access, theft, wildlife intrusion, and property damage.
Invented in 1873 by Joseph Glidden, barbed wire transformed fencing by providing an affordable, effective alternative to timber. Farmers quickly adopted it to manage livestock and mark property boundaries.
In World War I, galvanised barbed wire became a strategic defence tool. High-tensile barb wires were installed to slow enemy movement, reinforce trenches, and protect key positions.
Today, high-tensile barb wires are widely used in correctional facilities, along borders, and in high-security zones to prevent unauthorised movement and establish clear boundaries.

Whether you are a Sydney homeowner, rural landowner, or business owner, choosing the right barbed wire can make a significant difference in security, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Below are answers to common questions we receive about barbed wire fencing, installation, and legal considerations in NSW.
For Sydney’s varied climate, high-tensile hot-dip galvanised barbed wire is ideal. It offers exceptional strength, resists rust and corrosion, and withstands coastal humidity, rain, and harsh summer heat.
With correct installation and minimal maintenance, galvanised barbed wire can last over 20 years. Factors like proximity to the coast, exposure to heavy rainfall, and frequency of tensioning can affect lifespan.
Yes, barbed wire is legal on farms, rural land, and most commercial sites in Sydney. However, you should check with your local council for restrictions, especially in residential or urban areas where safety regulations may apply.
Costs depend on wire diameter, galvanisation type, roll length, and whether you buy in bulk. For example, RWAP offers 500-metre rolls starting at $72 (ex GST) for 1.6mm medium-duty wire, with discounts for bulk orders.
As a guide, a standard three-strand fence requires approximately 3 metres of wire per linear metre of fencing. Our team can calculate exact requirements based on your fence layout and security needs.
Yes, many property owners pair barbed wire with chain wire fencing or mesh wire to increase security and control livestock more effectively.
