Boundary Design
To create your no-go area, place the
Boundary Wire along fences, around
garden beds, across lawn areas, across
open driveways and gates, etc.
The Boundary Wire may be pegged to the
ground, covered, buried or attached low
down on a fence.
Example 1
: Simple single wire installation
around the whole property. The Activation
Distance is selected on the collar.
Example 2:
Doubled Wire installation for
customised shapes. The Doubled Wire
technique loops back on itself with a wire
separation of between 30cm and 2m.
Activation Distance on the collar is set to
maximum.
The wire separation governs
the Activation Distance (small separation for shorter distances).
See the next two pages, examples 3,4,5,7,8 & 9.
Boundary Wire Examples
Your Wireless Dog Fence boundary can be as simple or intricate as you need. The following
examples illustrate various wire installations to achieve different effects.
NOTE:
1/ In the following examples we've located the Boundary Wire Energiser at the house, but it
can generally be installed anywhere in sunlight.
2/ “Activation Distance” is
defined as the distance between the Boundary Wire and when
the Collar begins to detect signal (see page 16).
3/ No matter what design you employ, the boundary is formed by only ONE piece of wire
and each end of this is connected to the Boundary Wire Energiser.
Tip:
Do you have areas where you don't want the Boundary Wire to activate your dogs
’
collars? Sureguard makes a Dual-Wire that creates a cancellation of the signal while still
allowing the main signal to pass to other areas of your boundary. By deleting the signal,
your dog's collar won't activate next to this Dual-Wire.
