An engineer by trade and accomplished inventor, I have always looked at unique ways to solve life’s problems—including bringing disc brakes to mountain bikes, precision to motorcycle disc brakes found in Harleys, and intuitive function to game-camera mounts.

In 2007, I wanted to take horse fencing to a new level. I developed the Alumashield fence system, later leading to Buckley Fence, LLC’s Steel Board Fence, a complete paradigm shift for the market. 

Our fencing is in numerous homes and facilities worldwide, including private estates and ranches, the University of Georgia’s Veterinary School of Medicine, and Lazy Boy’s new world headquarters. More importantly, I am fortunate and lucky enough to work alongside my family. And as a family-run business, we truly see you as part of that family.

THE MAN BEHIND THE BRAND

MEET JIM BUCKLEY

• Veterinarians recommend for safety
  
• Installed at the UGA College of Veterinary Medicine
  
• No fasteners or nails
  
• Smooth, rounded edges
  
• Each board will bow at 400 pounds of pressure and then spring back into perfect true form
  
• If the horse panics, the fence will flex and break out and away from them

SAFER FOR YOUR HORSE

JIM CANNAVINO

When we put our horse (a 16-3 Hannovarin mare, opinionated as all champions should be) in the paddocks for the first time, she was pretty excited and after a few pirouettes backed hard in to the fence.

My wife was panicked and I was ecstatic. The top two rails buckled, just as Jim Buckley told me they would. The rails did not shatter or splinter. They fell out of the posts and my horse was not injured. The safety of our horse was far more important to us than a bent rail. The rail is simply replaced and we have peace of mind.

If you have any others considering your fence, send them to me. I’ll be more than happy to share our experience. Your Steel Board Fence is the best fence ever made!”

JIM AND THE BUCKLEY TEAM ARE PROUD OF EACH INNOVATIVE PRODUCT

Steel Board Fencing

Wire Mesh / Hot Wire Mounts

Steel Board Gates

EZ Latch System

Dear Jim, I am so glad we replaced our vinyl fence with your product. The vinyl fence required an electric wire to keep the horses off the fence, but with your fence, no more electric wire. We no longer worry that people or dogs will get a shock when we go out to visit with the horses in the pasture. We also are confident the horses are safe. We love the gates, they work better than any gate we have ever had and they look great too. Installation went quicker than we imagined, and Tim Jantz [of Legacy Fence and Construction] did a great job, not to mention he was fun to have around. We would definitely recommend your fence and Tim Jantz’s company for installation. Tim knows the product very well and provided some great suggestions for a better outcome on the project.
