Dog Containment System Above Ground Installation

If you have decided that a wireless dog containment system will not provide you with the full control you desire, but you are unable to or just do not want to bury the wires in our wired models, we still have a solution for you. Not all wires used in an in-ground invisible fence systems need to be buried. For this solution we suggest using Wire Securing Staples to safely and effectively secure the wires for an above ground installation. Just follow the simple instructions below.

  • First, lay down the boundary wire around the area you wish to make up the containment area for the dog. Make sure to run the wire back to the transmitter and plug it in.

  • Hammer the staples around the wire along the ground about five to six feet apart from each other. This will keep the wire in place so you can then safely secure it.

  • Make sure there are not any raised areas before going to the next step. If there are any raised areas in the wire, hammer it down with another staple. This step is very important.

  • Place a staple where the wire and the beginning of the boundary meet. If there is a splice in this area, dig a hole about 2 inches deep and bury the splice. Then you will place a staple in front and behind the splice to relieve any pressure.

  • Next, walk to the first corner of the boundary and staple it to the ground. Repeat this step for all corners of the boundary. If your yard is not square, just select multiple points that will act as anchor points for the wire.

  • Now just place staples anywhere they might be needed to ensure that there are no raised areas and that the wire is safely and completely flushed to the ground. It is important for your safety that the wire is secured, to prevent a tripping hazard.
