Pipe Fence & Continuous Fence in Spearfish & the Black Hills
Mobile welding serving ranchers, farmers & contractors across South Dakota & Eastern Wyoming.
What We Build — Pipe Fence, Continuous Fence & Ranch Fencing in South Dakota
If you run cattle, horses, hogs, or hay ground in South Dakota or Eastern Wyoming, you already know that cheap fencing costs more in the long run. Rails pull loose. Posts rot. Wire sags. When you need fencing that holds up to livestock pressure, weather extremes, and the kind of hard use that comes with working land, pipe fence and continuous fence are the right answer — and Mid State Welding LLC is who you call to build it right.
We fabricate and install steel pipe fence, continuous pipe fence (also called pipeline fence or running fence), portable livestock panels, corral systems, and custom ranch gates across the Black Hills region. We serve ranchers, farmers, property developers, and acreage homeowners from Spearfish and Belle Fourche all the way out to Sundance, Wyoming and into the Nemo and Sturgis areas.
Our pipe fence is built from schedule 40 and schedule 80 steel pipe — the same heavy-wall material used in agricultural and industrial applications. We weld every joint. No clamps, no clips, no hardware that loosens after the first hard winter. Pipe diameters, rail spacing, and post depth are all customized to your specific livestock type and terrain. A cattle operation along the Belle Fourche River needs different specs than a horse property on a rocky hillside near Deadwood, and we know the difference.
Continuous fence — sometimes called continuous rail or running fence — is one of the most requested pipe fence styles in the Black Hills. The rails run uninterrupted for long stretches, giving you a clean, consistent look that also happens to be incredibly strong. It’s a popular choice for property boundary lines, highway-frontage fencing, and large pasture divisions. We can run continuous fence for hundreds of feet across open ground, working around terrain features and matching grade changes as we go.
Because we’re a fully mobile welding operation, we come to your property. No hauling posts or rails to a shop and back. We set your posts, align your rails, and weld everything in place — on-site, on your schedule. Our mobile rig handles everything from single-gate repairs on an existing fence line to full corral builds from scratch.
