Our Approach

Built for Manitoba's Conditions

Manitoba’s freeze-thaw cycles, clay-heavy soil, and extreme temperature swings are tough on fences — especially when they’re installed using methods that weren’t designed for prairie conditions. Every installation decision at Shorty’s is made with Winnipeg’s specific climate in mind.
The most important decision: we don’t set posts in concrete under standard conditions. Concrete absorbs moisture, freezes, expands, and can push footings upward over time. We drive posts deep below the frost line, where they perform better and stay straighter longer.

How It Works

Five steps, no surprises. The same proven process on every Shorty’s installation.
