Many people may think that the wires in Underground pet containment systems should be buried under the ground. That impression is simply not true. Although, burying the wires is recommended to have a more permanent pet containment.

For those who don’t like the idea of burying the wires and those who are just renting, there’s another method of securing the wires. Our offered Securing Staples will let owners lay the wires on the ground. This method is called above ground installation.

Now owners have two options in creating the boundary of the electronic pet containment. Whatever method owners prefer, our pet containment systems will work the same.

 

Step 1:

» First lay out the boundary wire in the desired shape and around the area owners want to contain. From the boundary wire run twisted wire to the transmitter and pug it in.
» Once decided already on the system, "Staple" the twisted wire to the ground by hammering in a wire "Staple" every 5 - 6 feet.
» Now stop and look at the wire. Is it completely flush to the ground all the way to the start of the boundary? The wire MUST completely touch the ground. If not go and "Staple" any raised areas before proceeding to the next step.

Step 2:

» Place a "Staple" where the twisted wire and the beginning of the boundary meet (if owners have a splice in this area please dig a small hole about 2 inches deep and bury the splice. Then place a "Staple" in the front of and behind the splice to relieve any pressure on the splice)
» Next, walk to the first corner of the boundary and "Staple" it to the ground. Repeat this step for all corners of the boundary. (Not all yards are square if owners do not have corners on the boundary please select multiple anchor points for the wire)
» Now place staples as needed and make sure to staple any raised areas down until they are completely flush with the ground, for maximum safety for owners and the guests.
