Abstract
Abstract An improved fence construction includes an elongated plastic strip with the edges of the strip folded over parallel wires. The wires may be electrified. The plastic strip may be coded, decorated or laminated with other materials to provide an improved fence material for use in combination with fence posts to provide the appearance of a multirail fence, for example.
