ABSTRACT:
A fence post with horizontal studs used for quick fence wire connection. The fence wire connection used for securing a portion of the fence wire next to the fence post. The fence post with a quick fence wire connection is designed to eliminate the use of a separate tying wire and twisting of the tying wire on the fence post using a pair of pliers. The fence post includes a plurality of equally spaced pairs of horizontal studs disposed along the length of one side of the post. An equally spaced wire gap is provided between each of studs. The wire gap is dimensioned for receiving a portion of fence wire therein. Each of the horizontal studs has a side profile of a rectangular geometric shape or similar geometric shape and with a vertical base integrally attached to the side of the post and a parallel vertical top. An upper side of each stud is parallel to a lower side of the stud. In each of the studs is a vertical locking pinhole with an upper opening in the upper side and a lower opening in the lower side. The locking pinhole is used for receiving an inverted “L” shaped locking pin. The locking pinholes in the adjacent horizontal studs are parallel and indexed with each other for receiving the “L” shaped locking pin therethrough and holding the wire in the wire gap.
