How to Attach Barb Wire to Fence Posts
- 1). Hold the wire against the fence post. Position the fence on the post so the wire remains as level as possible along the overall length.
- 2). Place a fence staple over the wire. Place the sharp ends of the staple against the wood and apply pressure so the ends push into the wood post.
- 3). Hold a hammer with a firm but comfortable grip near the end of the handle.
- 4). Tap the U shaped end of the staple to initially drive the staple ends into the post.
- 5). Strike the U shaped end of the fence staple harder to drive the staple into the wooden fence post and against the barbed wire to hold it in place.
