Install the Boundary Wire
To Bury the Boundary Wire
Burying the Boundary Wire is recommended to protect it and prevent disabling the system.
1. Cut a trench 1-3 inches deep along your planned boundary.
2. Place the Boundary Wire into the trench maintaining some slack to allow it to expand and contract with
temperature variations.
3. Use a blunt tool such as a wooden paint stick to push the Boundary Wire into the trench. Be careful not to
damage the Boundary Wire.
To Attach the Boundary Wire to an Existing Fence
The Boundary Wire of the PetSafe ® In-Ground Fence ™ can be attached to a chain link fence, split rail fence, or a
wooden privacy fence. The Boundary Wire can be attached as high as needed. However, make sure the Boundary
Width is set at a high enough range for the pet to receive the signal. If using a Double Loop with an existing fence
at least three feet tall, run the Boundary Wire on top of the fence and return it on the bottom of the fence to get the
three to fi ve foot separation needed.
• Chain Link Fence (7A): Weave Boundary
Wire through the links or use plastic quick ties.
• Wooden Split Rail or Privacy Fence (7A):
Use staples to attach Boundary Wire. Avoid
puncturing the insulation of the Boundary
Wire.
• Double Loop with an Existing Fence: Run
Boundary Wire on top of the fence and return
it on the bottom of the fence to get the three to
fi ve foot separation needed.
• Gate (Single Loop) (7B): Bury the Boundary
Wire in the ground across the gate opening.
Note: The signal is still active across the gate. Your
pet cannot pass through an open gate.
• Gate (Double Loop) (7B): Bury both
Boundary Wires across the gate opening while
keeping them three to fi ve feet apart.

To Cross Hard Surfaces (driveways, sidewalks, etc.)
• Concrete Driveway or Sidewalk (7C): Place
the Boundary Wire in a convenient expansion
joint or create a groove using a circular saw and
masonry blade. Place the Boundary Wire in the
groove and cover with an appropriate patching
compound. For best results, brush away dirt or
other debris before patching.
• Gravel or Dirt Driveway (7D): Place the
Boundary Wire in a PVC pipe or water hose to
protect the Boundary Wire before burying.
