A fence stay for use in fixedly spacing strands of wire fencing between posts including smooth, barbed and woven wire strands strung between the posts. The stay includes an elongated strip of rigid sheet material arcuately or angularly contoured about a longitudinal axis thereof, a series of transversely arranged slots spaced along the length of the axis of the sheet material for receiving separate strands of the fencing wire, and a locking wire adapted to be slid in parallel to the axis between and into an interior surface of the strip and the strands of wire passing through the series of slots. The locking wire has a hook on the upper end and after installation, the lower end is crimped upwardly around the bottom edge of the strip. The sheet material forming the strip includes rolled edges for adding rigidity to the fence stay. Reflective coatings may be applied to the exterior contour of the fence stay or added to the plastic material when the stay is formed thereby providing for increased awareness of the presence of the fence stay.
