Get your Customised Fence Quotation:
The “Fence-Top Barrier” consists of four wires that are tensioned by these End Posts and held apart by Support Brackets. The End Posts are a special copyrighted design incorporating unique electrical wiring links that form part of the barrier.
The fence barrier is designed for existing fences 1.5m or higher. Once installed, it sits a maximum of 18cm above your existing fence. The barrier stops cats and possums going over the fence or possums travelling along the fence.
We recommend that you install the Pingg-String Fence Barrier along the full perimeter of your protected area. Do not leave any gaps that animals could exploit.
The Pingg-String Ground Barrier is powered by the Pingg-String Solar Energiser (sold separately).
Each End Post kit contains:
- Four (4) End Posts. (230mm * 30mm. Mounting holes 25mm apart).
- Four Insulated cables for connecting adjacent End Posts.
- Twentyfour (24) Pingg-String Tree Clips (wire covers).
Pingg-String Design Flexibility
Every installation is different which is why the Pingg-String system can be ordered as components. Order your Pingg-String Energiser plus the number of 15m Extension Kits need.
This End Post Kit is used in a variety of situations. To simplify your ordering, please use this CALCULATOR.

Mini fence barrier demonstration
This illustration is a mini “Fence Barrier” through which we will demonstrate the sequence of installation. It represents just one straight section of your fence. In your actual installation you will repeat this on all protected sides of your property.
Basically, you will screw the End Posts #1 and Support Brackets #2 to your fence. You’ll repeat this on all other straight sections of your fence. Then install the four Pingg-Wires, as illustrated, starting from the top wire down. Once every section is completed, they are connected to each other with a pair of insulated cables #7 so all four wires are energised by the pulse.
These are the End Posts. Each straight section of fence will have an End Post at either end. They maintain tension in the four wires. They also connect the wires electrically through the metal discs #4 where the wires are held.
Important: End Posts must be fastened to a rigid surface such as timber or metal. You decide whether to fasten these to your fence posts, top rail or the fence. Notice the printed marking “Fence Top”. This is a suggested alignment point to the top of your fence. When aligned to the marker the lower wire will be 1.5cm from the fence top. You can alter this within certain limits.
Note: The lowest Pingg-Wire must be no more than 3cm to 4cm above the fence.
Support Brackets help keep the wires evenly separated and give
physical strength to the barrier. The illustration shows one Support
Bracket but you’ll install several depending on the distance between the
End Posts. Typical spacing is 1.5m but you can install them up to 2.4m
if the length of your fence panels dictate this. You can also space them
less than 1.5m if you need more physical strength.
Each set of 4 Pingg-Wires must be installed onto the End Post starting with the top wire and finishing on the bottom wire. This sequence will reduce the chance of over tensioning or having the previous wires go slack.
Attach the wire to one end of that section. Walk to the other end while unspooling the Pingg-Wire. Cut the Pingg-Wire allowing enough length to thread through the mounting holes at this end. As you pull the Pingg-Wire through the first hole take up the slack then pull a further 1 or 2 cm to add a little tension to the Pingg-Wire. Do not over tension because it may reduce the life of the wire.
Pingg-Wires are threaded through the four mounting holes. The sequence is marked in the illustration. Push the Pingg-Wire through hole A. Then into hole B. Then C and finally D. While threading, make sure no bunching of the wires occurs so the finishing clips will sit neatly.
Important: Please complete all wiring exactly as described without short cuts. If you simply tie the Pingg-Wire to one hole your system probably won’t repel properly. It may also generate Radio/TV interference and will need to be redone properly!
The Tree Clips and Washers are installed to give a neat visual finish to electrical connections. The Tree Clip is a firm fit into the hole. Press firmly! The Washer is a lighter press fit. We recommend you attach them immediately after installing each Pingg-Wire .
Bracket Clips have a slot through which you can pass the Pingg-Wire. These clips push into the holes in the Support Bracket and keep the four Pingg-Wires apart.
Insulated Cable connects the End Post to the next adjacent End Post so the puIse continues in the next section. In each End Post Kit you receive two insulated cables about 40cm long. The insulation has been pre-cut 3.5cm from either end to allow easy removal. When you remove this insulation pull off with a twisting motion. This will keep all the fine wires together and make it easy to thread into the End Post. Thread this wire through the four mounting holes using the same method as in point #4.

Additionally , more than happy with your quick despatch of my order and receipt, got it installed last weekend.Read More9 years agoReviewed byK Fountain00Totally in love, possums deterred.While I bought most of the components required for the fence several years ago, I did not progress beyond securing the posts to the timber fence. It was only recently when I recognised a problem pest was eating the stems of a small cut flower crop I have, and then finally confronting the pest on several occasions at night that I realised I needed extra lengths of insulated wire to connect the fence underneath the gates to finish the installation. Now motivated to complete the installation and finally completing it, I am totally in love with it. There was early evidence in the first few days that possum/s had been trying to climb over the fence as before, but they now seem to not be bothering and my crop is starting to push up blooms again after only one week. It is great to be able to program the fence to become active only during the night when needed without having to give any thought to daytime movements in and out of the enclosure. I am so in love with this fence as a solution. It has completely solved my problem and is saving so much in lost product……so yes you did meet my expectations…..exceptionally well :)Read More9 years agoReviewed byM Telling00Cats tried, we're hopeful.Yes very much so, we have it installed, our cats have tried it out a couple of times. At this stage I think we have them licked, here's hoping, regards mickRead More9 years agoReviewed byL Sell00Delivered fast, works great.The system that I purchased was delivered in good time and packaged well. It has performed as required and is a relatively easy process to install, and the biggest challenges came from my own property, fence condition, etc. I appreciated the initial system to work out my requirements as that proved to be on the money. I would recommend this system to other cat owners if needs dictate.Read More9 years agoReviewed byL Campbell00New design exceeded expectations.I would just like to say that you EXCEEDED my expectations. The new design is very slick and is easy to install. I am hoping it is keeping the possums out! It is a great improvement on the old design of 10 years ago or so. Because I was only replacing part of an old installation, I needed to check some details about interconnecting and Brad (Tech Support) was very patient and helpful.Read More9 years agoReviewed byA Flenley00Great product, cat contained.We have spent the weekend installing the cat fence and have only to complete two new gates and finish the pingg over the top of these. It looks fantastic on the fence and blends in very well a lot better than the multiples of wire and plastic fencing that was previously our deterrent for our climbing cat. So glad it has all been dismantled. It will be great to be able to not have to worry about where the cat is all the time if he cannot get out. Great product, easy to install, delivery was quick and the only unhappy one is the cat.Read More9 years agoReviewed byK Hatt00Working perfectly, thanks!Thanks so much it's working perfectlyRead More9 years agoReviewed byR Seager00Happy again, works well.Once again you did well and I am happy with the function of my purchase.Read More9 years agoReviewed byB Sidhu00Works well, missing parts?Yes very pleased. Hubby said he could have done with a few more parts but, not to bother as everything works well. Leo my cat, is getting older like myself so is not so naughty, like he used to be.Read More9 years agoReviewed byI Campbell006/06/2023 3:48Everything seems to be working ok, thank you for your product.Read More9 years agoReviewed byA Blyth00Cat stays home now.We installed 90 metres of fence top Ping String barrier last month. It was fairly simple to install and has worked well from day 1. We have a 2 year old cat who used to get over our 2100mm paling fence every time she was let out (and we have the good side on all 3 sides) We think she got “pinged on the first day and has shown no interest in having another go. Now she happily prowls around the back yard day and night. We've very happy with this system and it's the best solution .Read More9 years agoReviewed byM Cummins00All good, excellent product.All good thank you Excellent product.Read More9 years agoReviewed byS Bonazinga00Straightforward fence, garden revived.Fence line was straightforward to install and worked first go. And our experience over the last week following installation has been very encouraging re possum deterrence. There has been very little to no activity and our garden is visibly recovering, particularly our robustas along the fence. Would heartily recommend this to others.Read More9 years agoReviewed byMarion A Rimmer00ExcellenceAn excellent product and excellent serviceRead More9 years agoReviewed byNorm Buck00Great productGreat product, well made and well priced and it works. Our cat has not escaped since installing surequard electric cat fence. Very happyRead 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 byCathy Harrison00Safe KittyGreat product and easy to install. I saw my cat attempt to jump the fence and get a light shock, she jumped straight down and came running inside. She has not tried jumping the fence again. I am a very happy cat mum knowing her fur baby is safe at home. I would highly recommendRead More9 years agoReviewed byPaul00Well-Designed End Post Kit, Some Additional Support Bracket Design RequiredRecently installed 4 sections on top of existing fence which included 3 framed lattice privacy panels. Agree with other reviewers that updated installation pictures showing the new electrical connection method would help to explain things better as I at first thought I had incorrectly supplied end posts until I noticed & studied the extra A4 sheet showing new design/connection method. The geometry on the top of my fence/lattice sections did not allow a simple mounting & I had to design & fabricate a couple of different types of steel brackets to provide sufficient support for the end posts. This is not a criticism of the product but other users may also find this to be necessary. I commend the high standard of design, quality & integrity of the Pingg-String End Post Kits. Generally speaking, installation is simple & well-explained in the included instruction sheet taking into account the minor comments above.Read More9 years agoReviewed byChris Warren00New end post design100% better than original design. Easy fixing of wire much more secureRead More9 years agoReviewed bySerge Navarro00Great bit of 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. The installation instructions could be revamped, when we purchased it, the box seemed to show one diagram and then a single set of 'new' instructions were included, it was a bit tricky to find the difference but then we got it sorted. I think the installation instructions could be improved, it was hard to gauge whether we were seeing the install from 'inside' or 'outside', Overall, a good product so farRead More9 years agoReviewed byShane Clark00Easy to do.Great for gates you can put connections on wires so you can open your gateRead More9 years agoReviewed byDetlef Georg00clipsa few extra clips to secure the wiring would be nice. I dropped two of them and could not find them. Luckily I did not use all of the end-posts and had just enough.Read More9 years agoReviewed byHelen Greenwood00Amazing!After many weeks of research on how to enclose a 2nd floor deck so my cats didn't fall off, I chose Ping String. I installed it (well, my handyman did - I could not do it mayself) along the balustrade around the perimetre of the .deck and it has worked brilliantly. I think my cats must have touched it once or twice, because now they go out on the deck but won't climb up on the fence/balustrade. It's very unobtrusive visually too.Read More9 years agoReviewed byJoe Bellavita00End postsI think the end posts should be a little more rigid as I have customers saying that they break due to cats or possums reaction to static push the brackets to break. But the system is good. [EDITOR: Thanks for your feedback. They have a set break-force by design for safety if overloaded. We haven't found overloading to be common.]Read More9 years agoReviewed bySteven Bishop00Pingg-String End Post KitI was delighted to see the improvement in the mechanism to attach the string - much easier than before - well done, a good innovation. Great product all round.Read More9 years ago
