Never before has there been a way to tension manufactured netting such as horse mesh or hinge lock with such speed and ease of use.
-
Can be on or off the wire in under 15 seconds
-
Minimal bend applied to the wire
-
Little tension reduction after removing from wire
-
Only puts as much force on the wire as you apply to the strain
-
NO HAMMER NEEDED!
Now with Toggle Pre-Clamps - position the Viceman where you want it and lock it in position before you start the strain.

Brilliant product - how anything so superior and simple compared to competitors took so long to be invented is a mystery. I have used 4 other types of strainer set ups for 1263cm exclusion prefab wire over the last 2 years (including one from Wireman) but the Viceman 1.5m board is an absolute standout for ease and effectiveness. I will be getting another set to use in leapfrogging strains around corners. The the other types of boards in my collection (except the other Wireman which will be useful for simultaneous multi plain wire strains) will be junked.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a considered review Peter, greatly appreciated. Commerce asside, it's inspirational to know that we have made a job easier. Cheers, Ian
We are so very happy with the pair of Vicemen we recently recieved in super fast delivery to Gotland Sweden! We just learned to operate the clamps but it was very few minutes needed before we managed to speed up the work. We use 90cm sheep mesh and the clamps are so very easy to attach!

Being new to fencing and researching lots of content on the subject, I was drawn to Wireman's gear. I was unsure to which strainer board and strainers to go for so I reached out to Ian. It's quite clear he is very passionate about fencing. After discussing our situation with undulating ground, Ian suggested the East Ender strainer board and two StraineX wire strainers, which we purchased. The strainer board and strainers are very well made and worked an absolute treat, the digital scales are great for novices that aren't sure how much to tension a fence up to. Once the Jack the Grippers are fitted to the wire they will not slide off and doesn't cause any damage to the wire. Having the strainers at the top and bottom of the strainer board was perfect to get an even strain on the hilly ground we have.Thank you Ian for a great product and really appreciate your friendly no obligation advice. We will be happy to purchase again from you if needed.
Exactly what I asked for 😀
If you’re a fence contractor. This tool is a must
I have used them on my property and now helping out a friend.
easy to install made a huge difference to old fences to raise the height
Very easy to use, no extra tool needed.
Its the old saying with the Crinkler. Why didnt I think of that. What a brilliant concept and product. So easy to use and first class tough quality that I can see lasting for years and years. Well done to Wireman and I would highly recommend this product to anyone else. Thats honest. I am a real person, not a machine. I bet a machine doesnt have slack wire fences. Well I did, But not now :)
Love the wire stariners from wire man, Have two of them now and would have no problem buying a third. Some bit of kit to have in the tool box. Easy to use and easy to remove from fence lines.
Great customer service & support from Ian.
An awesome piece of equipment & engineering.
Takes majority of the hard work out of tying off fencing wire / mesh.
Highly recommended & works really well, especially in the tight places.
Excellent service and prompt delivery.
Used on two different brands of stars, clean fit to Waratah and a small amount of hammering to fit onto Stockpost. Coupled with Davo's Fencing Clips and Davo's Reel clips for an exclusion fence with a finished height of 2m.
