How does the Pingg-String work?
The Pingg-String Energizer applies an electronic pulse to the barrier wires. It feels like common static electricity. As the animal pushes into the wires it is repelled by the pulse. The animal learns not to repeat the experience.
Sureguard invented the Pingg-String System in 1997 as a safe, effective & humane barrier for small animals. It is recognised by the NSW Department of Primary Industries as a safe allowable device for dogs & cats and is listed as an allowable device in the NSW Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1979 (2000 Revision). By contrast, electric fences are not allowed to be used for dogs & cats. Beware of our imitators!
There are two types of Pingg-String installation:
- Ground Barrier (for Dogs)
- Fence-Top Barrier (for Cats & Possums)
Both are powered by this Pingg-String Energizer.
The barrier kits are sold separately so you only need to buy what you need.

Customer Reviews
Excellent product. Easy to install. Our cats now play outside and we know they are safe. Thanks for being on Better Homes and Gardens.
B Harrington
So far so good! The dogs next door haven't ventured back under our fence and I just feel safer leaving my dog at home knowing there is a deterrent for the dogs which were attacking mine. Thank you!
Rebecca Eve
This product is unbelievable. My dog was a serial and determined digger and escape artist and since installing this product, within 20 minutes he doesn't go anywhere near the fences anymore. It is incredibly easy to install and only took about 1 hour to set up a line around my whole yard (about 60 - 70m). I would (and have been) recommending this product to all my friends who have escaping dogs.

Put it right around back fence, and gate at side. Ok had my doubts, tried so many ways to keep cats safe, plus let them have a garden to play in , let them run free a but. Heck this thing hasn’t missed a beat, each had a couple of attempts, as they are young agile cats. Thought they would find a way through, but No , it’s just so effective. Now they are quite content , snd don’t attempt to escape. No intruders either. What a relief , we are in awe of this product. It delivers and works way past our expectations. Told everyone , and the pet shop. We are spreading the word . Thankyou a million times, you Made a product that sticks to its promises. And, it’s barely noticeable in our garden. And our cats, get a great quality of life, in best way possible Big thanks from them also. Two very in awe satisfied customers.Read More9 years agoReviewed byBarnaby Smith00Always found it works wellThis is the third time I have purchased a ping string energiser and have been using them for over 20 years. The latest energiser looks a class above the old ones and has proved just as effective in the two weeks it has been operational.Read More9 years agoReviewed byMandy Ford00Excellent solutionWe have two cats that were roaming and the ping string has be a great solution. So effective and efficient delivery. Great support. I highly recommend to keep your cats safe but give them some freedom.Read More9 years agoReviewed byAnthony Murray00Perfect for keeping my cat safe and in the yard, and others outBrilliant addition to my yard, gives the Cat complete freedom inside and out 24/7 and safely inside my property. Had one prior so we are happy customers now for 8 years plus. With Cat curfews becoming more common in some suburbs these should become a regular feature of many backyards. [EDITOR: Yes, with cat curfews you definitely need a solution that works as close to 100% as possible.]Read More9 years agoReviewed byRoss Laws00Sueeguaed pest control SYSTEMHaving tried every suggested remedy to stop possums eating all the new growth of my garden, I came across a product called SUREGUARD. Reading the marketing info,it sounded too good to be true. I purchased the unit which was easy to install, The results were fantastic, I haven't seen a possum since, what a brilliant product and highly recommend it.Read More9 years agoReviewed byChiquita00dog barrierMy dog and the neighbours dog both run the fence line barking at each other and also fight at the fence jumping on it. It took three goes for my dog to go through the Pingg line,, but after that it has deterred him from running the fence line and it keeps a barrier between him and the neighbours dog. Definitely works a treat.Read More9 years agoReviewed byAlison Kenny00Cat/ possum Ping FenceWe’ve previously purchased and we’re so happy worked at treat!

We still have one possum that seems immune to electric shocks, but the rest of the family is suitable dissuaded and steers clear. Enough to rescue our maple tree.Read More9 years agoReviewed byAnn Johnson00Pingg - String Fence EnergisrI purchased in December '21. It was easy to set up and I haven't had any issues since.Read More9 years agoReviewed byLisa White00pesky possumsThis product saved my garden. We had spent major $ on mature trees for instant privacy screening and the possums shredded it within weeks. we added sure guard to the boundary fences and we now have a lush garden. It totally works, possums are not injured, they have just found more comfortable grazing grounds! All my friends are installing it now.Read More9 years agoReviewed byRichard Batson00Grapevine not possumsPingString has been great at keeping possums off my pergola with an ornamental grapevine growing on it. Was easy to set up and install.Read More9 years agoReviewed byCarole00Fantastic product to keep your cat safe, and keep other cats out of your backyardMy cat has been attacked by other cats twice in the past a few months, she was bitten very badly and got infection, I had to take her to the vet each time, costs were well over $500, not to mention that we had to flush her wound for two weeks to help her to heal, on top of that she was at risk of getting FIV. I looked online for solutions to keep her safe and at the same time to keep other cats out. Plus, I wanted to give her as much as freedom possible hence she loves to have her freedom. So I ruled out the confined netting area because it's limiting her freedom too much, and the fence top netting because that doesn't guarantee to keep other cats out. So I went for Sureguard fence top ping wire system. We ended up installing it by ourselves to save on cost, our garden is about 65 metre of boundary fence, part colorbond, part timber, to simplify it, we used the bird netting to block top of the gate, bought the screws from hardware shop. Total cost was $490 Sureguard including the energizer, plus small cost of screws and drillbit. Which is many times cheaper than the cat nets option. Brad from Sureguard has been wonderful helping me along the way, answered my questions, which made the whole installation smooth. The only thing you need to pay attention to is if there are any gaps between the ping wire and top or edge of fence, no other gaps around fence, no overhanging branches. My cat did get out once because I left a gap and I have since blocked the gap with the plastic gutter guard roll, and she hasn't been able to get out since. And no other cats have been able to come in to bother her either. I am very happy with Sureguard and the help I received from Brad. Highly recommend this product.Read More9 years agoReviewed byAlly00Cat owners, you can’t afford to NOT have one!As a cat owner, I have gone to great lengths to keep my cat in my back yard. He is a little Houdini. I had cat rollers on fences; until he figured out how to get his paw on the fence without it spinning… I had wire mesh on the rain water tank to stop him using that to get over the fence; until he started using it to get on the roof and jumping off the roof to the front lawn. I had a GPS tracker tag on his collar… Finally, enter the pingg-string! I protected about 50m of fencing in about 6 hours. Two side fences, one rear fence and two front/side gates. It was simple and easy to install. The only tools I needed were a drill and a pop rivet gun. I highly recommend securing them with pop rivets as it’s fast, easy, fits tightly and neatly with no fuss. I have not had an escaping cat since, nor have I had any strays in my yard since. Such a great working product and the customer service is great too! I connected one part wrong (after hours) and had a phone call the next day to walk me through correcting it.Read More9 years agoReviewed byNoel Thompson00Cat ProofWandering cats now stay in their own backyard. Not hard to install and is working well. The energizer has not run short of power.Read More9 years agoReviewed byDeborah Wilson00Pingg string - cat enclosureReally happy with this product. Quite easy to install and you can hardly see the wires. So far it’s working exactly like it says and our cat is getting the use of our large garden. It’s a small price to pay to keep him safe :)Read More9 years agoReviewed byBrett Tomkins00Sureguard ground barrierWe have a great dog but he loves escaping by digging under the fence, causing my missus great consternation. Found Sureguard after lots of searching around and liked the idea of buying from an Australian made and owned company. After contacting sureguard over the phone for help they promptly rang me back from sales and recommended the ground barrier ping string. Sureguard put the order through and sent straight away on express post. Unfortunately, and this is NOT the fault of Sureguard, the plebs at Startrack Express didn't tell anyone that they don't send express post to P.O. Boxes and it took 3 weeks (I live in remote FNQ) so please keep that in mind when ordering. Once the unit arrived we were so excited to not have to keep our dog on a leash anymore. Unfortunately, after lots of frustration and swearing, we rang support and they diagnosed that the unit had a faulty transformer and it needed to be sent back for repair. While indeed frustrating after waiting so long for the product, support were very helpful and after sending the product back it was repaired very quickly and sent back via paid express post within 5 days (this time to home address). Since re-installing the product it has been brilliant. Completely stopped our Dog Gus in his tracks and he doesn't want to go within 1 metre of it. Problem solved, Thanks Sureguard.Read More9 years agoReviewed byPeter Algie00Hey good lookingThe Sureguard Pung String Energiser unit is a very attractive unit solid in construction weather proof. Very easy to install and product installation guide easy to understand. Very pleased with my purchase.Read More9 years agoReviewed byAri00Pingg string for fence topsThis product is fit for purpose, effective and discreet. Well done on fence top ping string. Communication with the team in Lismore has been helpful with measurements and adequate product shipped. Team available for over the phone advice and nervousness about putting the pingg string up. I researched alot of options before committing to pingg string fencetop. I am very happy and had mmediate results with keeping my two cats in and roaming cats out. Recommend highlyRead More9 years agoReviewed bySerge Navarro00Great kitI found this kit to be very easy to use, the installation was fairly long given the area but after a few months it seems to be working *fingers crossed* no more critters eating our plants. Given we installed it coming into winter, it was difficult to get enough sun to power the unit for day and night operation so I switched it to night only - seems to be working well so far. It would be great if it had a better method to mount it (e.g. a pole or saddle brackets to put it onto a fence or wall?) I currently just have it sitting flat on the roof because i've not yet found the right mounting attachment for it. I appreciate many people have different use cases for this, but maybe some recommendations for basic installation or attachments should be included or made availableRead More9 years agoReviewed byCraig00Great product - very happyWe got the ping sting fence product to try and keep out cat in post change in council laws. Overall i would give 5 stars *Customer service was great - i called and explained the distances i needed to cover over the phone, they were able to explain what products i needed to do the job and placed the order at that point * installation on top of the fence was pretty straight forward - i do not we had done some prep work over the previous months, some trees were cut down, we needed the back fence to be replaced etc. * finally - product worked from day one, out cat got a little tap post us turning on and since has not escalated the backyard So overall really happy with the product, set up etc, great investmentRead More9 years agoReviewed byNestor Palma00Ping Solar Electric FenceMy original Ping lasted more than 5 years. The new Ping got a better Off/On Switch that I hope will last much longer.Read More9 years agoReviewed byRob & Liz Anderson00Top Product That Solves the Problem!This is our second purchase of this product as we were extremely pleased with how effective this fence is. With problem dogs who love to escape from the yard, dig up our gardens, menace the next door neighbours dog plus attack and kill our chooks, this has been a life saver. Brilliant performance, easy to set up, covers all areas, instantly effective and it now makes for more relaxed pet owners. Used with young grandkids about who quickly learn not to touch it but the zap is not painful - mostly a fright with a gentle shock. Best investment.Read More9 years agoReviewed byNick Burne00Possum ProtectionWhat a great product that does what it says it will do.Read More9 years agoReviewed byKirsten00SalvationThe last two years I have been more anxious about possums than Covid. I put in a new garden and the possums were like a plague, eating every new leaf, buds and even the bark of my new advanced trees. Tried everything. I am still haunted by the smell of Napthalene. Put up Sureguard and life was suddenly good and the the trees are now green. Bliss.Read More9 years agoReviewed byRoss Laws00The total packageThis is a great product and since installation ( which was easy) we haven't seen one possum. An excellent resultRead More9 years ago
