I pound in steel posts at corners, then slip PVC pipe over posts.  Then I
wrap Premier Intellirope tightly around the outside so I do not need any pin
locks,
hooks or other wire holders.  When I have to move hives in and out of the
enclosure (via hand truck), I slide the Intellirope down the posts to ground
level, wheel the hives in, then slide the rope back up the posts.
