• Northco Hog Panel Fencing is built
specifically for hog confinement by the
experts in the field. That's why
Northco Panel Fencing has advantages
like these
• UPRIGHT PICKETS-Hogs can’t
climb the upright pickets and the
"open” design of Northco Panel Fenc
ing aids the ventilation system
• EVERY SECTION SWINGS-The
closure rod can be quickly removed
so every fencing section in the build
ing will act as a gate
• EASY TO INSTALL-Htnges allow for
some length adjustment to simplify in
stallation. Also Northco Panel Fencing
can be ordered m sizes to fit almost
any hog building including both total
confinement and open front systems
