Tensioning devices which may, for example, be used in fencing systems are disclosed. In one form, a system includes a pair of linking members each of which may be tensioned to transition from a flexible or somewhat flexible configuration to a more rigid configuration. The system further includes a tensioning device including a first engaging member configured to engage with a linking member, a second engaging member configured to engage with another linking member, and an adjustment member cooperating with and structured to selectively control relative positioning of the first and second engaging members. Each of the linking members may be engaged with a respective one of a pair elongate members spaced from one another, or with a first one and a second one of the elongate members. When so engaged, the tensioning device may be engaged with and tension the linking members to provide bracing between the elongate members.
A system for bracing a first elongate member and a second elongate member, comprising:
A system for bracing a pair of fence posts, comprising:
A method for bracing fence posts, comprising:
A system for tensioning a fencing wire, comprising a tensioning device engageable with a fence post and including a first engaging member configured to engage with the fencing wire and an adjustment member cooperating with and structured to selectively control relative positioning between the first engaging member and the fence post, wherein the tensioning device is structured to tension the fencing wire as the first engaging member is drawn toward the fence post by the adjustment member when the tensioning device is engaged with the fence post.
