This galvanised aviary wire mesh is for gardeners and pet owners seeking durable and secure enclosures for birds and small animals. Its key benefit is providing robust protection with electro-welded strength and galvanisation for longevity. A potential caveat is that the mesh is fairly lightweight, requiring secure installation to prevent animals from pushing underneath. It offers a neat, cost-effective fencing solution for aviaries, cages, runs, and garden perimeters.

The mesh is suitable for a wide range of small animals like rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and various bird species. The larger 1.2m tall, 2-inch mesh is specifically recommended for dog runs.
The galvanised coating is designed to provide years of service and excellent rust resistance in typical outdoor conditions. Longevity can vary based on environmental factors.
Yes, it can be used to create neat boundaries or reinforce existing garden fences, offering protection against small animals and adding a tidy appearance.
The mesh is available with three hole sizes: 1 inch (25mm) square, 1 inch x 1/2 inch (25mm x 12.5mm) rectangular, and 1/2 inch (12.5mm) square.
Rolls are typically 90cm tall and available in 25m and 50m lengths. Aviary mesh comes in 6m and 30m lengths, all 90cm tall, except for the super strong 1.2m tall x 2-inch mesh.
Basic tools such as sturdy wire cutters, a hammer (for posts), line wire, cable ties, and protective gloves and eyewear are recommended for installation.
Ensure line wires are securely tensioned at the top and bottom of the mesh. Use additional cable ties or fixings to attach the mesh firmly to posts at regular intervals.
Bury the bottom edge of the mesh at least 6 inches into the ground or secure it to a solid base. Use the line wire and cable tie method to prevent animals from lifting the bottom edge.
Use heavy-duty wire cutters or bolt cutters designed for metal mesh. Wear protective gloves and eyewear during cutting operations.
While galvanised, prolonged exposure to harsh conditions can eventually affect the coating. Clean affected areas gently and consider applying a metal-specific anti-rust paint if widespread.
Setup: For optimal installation, it is recommended to use a line wire along the top and bottom edges of the mesh. Secure the mesh to these line wires using cable ties. This method prevents animals from pushing under the fence.
Compatibility: This mesh is compatible with various post types and fencing structures, including wood posts and existing fence lines. It can be easily cut to size using appropriate wire cutters.
Care: The galvanised coating provides excellent rust resistance. To maintain its condition, periodically clean the mesh with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the protective zinc coating. Ensure the mesh is kept taut and securely fastened to prevent sagging or damage.
