This is the most popular type of fence to keep out deer and rabbits. These kits consist of poly fencing (in all different heights and strengths) or steel with some smaller opening size steel fencing (in different heights, strengths and opening sizes). The purpose of these fence kits is to not only exclude large animals like deer (poly fence is great for deer) but also chewing rodent animals like rabbits.
Poly or steel fence kits that include a minimum of 6" of overlap to pin to the ground. Great for all types of animals that can also try and push up under a fence with their noses. Also can be removable or permanent. Be sure to choose an all metal fence with overlap for rabbits, poly by itself is not a suitable rabbit deterrent.
Poly or steel kits that come without a ground overlay. These are easy to install and remove for use as a seasonal or temporary fence to keep rabbits out of the yard during times when rabbit activity is at its worst. Posts can slide out of the ground, and the whole fence comes down for storage without the need for tools.
These are specially designed fence kits that include protection against climbing animals (keeps animals in, keeps animals out or keeps animals both ways in and out) when other types of fences have not worked. The posts in these kits include extensions on the top of each post; when paired with included fencing, these extensions make an overhead canopy that deter animals from climbing over.
These rabbit fence kits consist of all 1" opening size or smaller fencing and are engineered to exclude most animals including birds. The all metal version of kits are great for customers that want to grow anything that is normally eaten by birds, such as berries, or climbing animals like raccoons. These fence kits are specific in size and as a disadvantage can only cover smaller areas because of the modular structural design.
Have a shorter fence you would like to extend up higher? These fence kits make it easy to convert your existing conventional fence to an effective rabbit fence. For example, extensions to increase the height of your chain link fence, wood fence, or aluminum fence.

HOW TO CHOOSE

How to Choose the Right Rabbit Fence

Your fence will need one of two configurations:


  • Standalone, single layer rabbit fence with overlap: This consists of a 24”-36” metal fence (1x1 opening size or smaller) with 6-12 inches of fencing pinned to the ground on the outside. This overlap keeps pests from digging under or tunneling underneath the barrier. This is the most practical solution when used as rabbit fencing for gardens and small or enclosed areas
  • Combination fence with a rodent barrier base: Bigger properties may benefit from this configuration, which features a tall poly fence (not chew proof) that is paired with a 3 ft metal bottom layer installed at 28” with 8” of ground overlap. This helps keep rabbits in and pests out with one easy-to-install system. It’s your go-to garden fencing for rabbits as well as some bigger animals. The metal bottom layer needs to be 1x1 opening size or smaller


Critterfence© provides an optimum solution for keeping rabbits in or out. Our rabbit fence kits provide a physical barrier to either exclude or contain rabbits without the need for shocking, electricity, or heavy maintenance. Whether you’re guarding a vegetable patch or flower bed, or just want to keep your rabbits within your yard, our rabbit fencing is your answer.


We’ve been designing and engineering animal fencing since 1992. Our rabbit fence systems are nearly invisible from a distance and are designed to last for years. We carry everything from lightweight poly rolls (suitable for the top of rabbit fences only) to heavy-duty welded wire for the bottom. 

Choosing the Right Opening

When choosing your rabbit fencing for gardens, always go with a fence with a one inch or smaller opening mesh size. While a hex shaped chicken wire fence for rabbits can offer some protection, it has a much lower breaking strength than square welded wire options, which offer up to 2000 lbs per square foot.
PRODUCT DETAILS

Rabbit Fence Information

There are a few different rabbit fence options on the market. If you have a need to create a fence to keep rabbits out of an area or to keep rabbits in an area, our fence is for you. Here’s why:


Our rabbit fencing is effective but nearly invisible from a distance. It’s engineered to be as invisible as possible, to blend in with your existing landscape.
Completely NON-ELECTRIC, no wires to break, no parts to fail over time. A real actual physical barrier to keep rabbits out or in.
Our fences to keep animals out are customizable. Choose the right strength, height, chew resistance, opening size and more for your project. This includes rabbit fence gates from 3 feet wide to 24 feet wide, thicker corner posts/end posts if applicable, tensioning for your rabbit fence and more. Since 1992 we have been offering the largest selection of customizable animal fence products on the market.
Renting? Need a temporary rabbit fence or seasonal rabbit fence? All our fences with ground sleeves can be installed permanently or made removable if needed. Use included locking set screws to release our fence posts. A good example would be installing a fence for the growing season then taking it down after the season is over.
We make our rabbit fences quick and easy to install. Using patent pending ground sleeves for regular posts and gates and large ground sleeves for corner posts and driveway gates no concrete footings are needed. Posts are secured with a locking set screw inside each sleeve. Large areas can be installed in a fraction of the time it would take for conventional fencing. Most customers install this type of fence themselves without contractors.

Why Choose Critterfence© for Your Rabbit Fencing?

  • Non-electric: There are no dead batteries, failed chargers, or broken wires
  • The highest quality: We specialize in all GAW (galvanized after welding or galvanized after weaving) metal fence mesh. This means the entire fence roll, after it’s made, is dipped in zinc to galvanize it. This protects from the elements where other big box stores fail (they often offer galvanized but don’t specify GAW or use weaker electro-galvanization). Rabbit fences almost always have fence to soil contact, and GAW plus a PVC coating is the best for corrosion resistance
  • Nearly invisible: Black PVC coating, allowing our fencing to blend in with most landscapes
  • Customizable: You choose the strength, opening size, height, and gate width you need
  • Removable: Unique ground sleeve posts can be pulled seasonally and easily reinstalled

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best rabbit fence?

The best rabbit fence will depend on your exact needs, but a general starting point is a 1x1 black welded wire rabbit fence with at least 6-12" of overlap staked to the ground. Larger properties may require pairing it with a poly deer fence.

How tall does a rabbit fence need to be?

To prevent rabbits only, rabbit fencing should be at least 24-36" tall. Rabbits rarely jump higher than 3 feet before moving on.

Can rabbits dig under a fence?

Yes. Rabbits are very good at digging. Always use overlap or buried fencing to keep your property protected. This is especially vital for rabbit fencing for gardens.

Is chicken wire fence for rabbits effective?

You can use a chicken wire fence for rabbits, but it's not as strong as heavier-duty options. It should be used for light-duty use. Welded wire is strong and longer lasting while also providing better chew resistance.

How much does rabbit fencing cost?

Rolls can range from around $1 to $10 per foot, depending on the material, height, and whether you want to purchase rolls or the complete kit with hardware and posts included.
