Full details

This grey chicken wire fence by VidaXL is designed for versatile outdoor use, offering a durable and safe solution for protecting gardens, trees, plants, and creating animal enclosures. Its key benefit lies in its robust construction and environmentally friendly materials, ensuring safety for flora and fauna.

Troubleshooting

Wire is difficult to cut.

Ensure you are using sturdy wire cutters designed for metal. For thicker sections, leverage might be needed or a second cut might be necessary.

Fence is not staying in place.

Increase the number of securing points (stakes, ties, staples). Ensure stakes are driven firmly into the ground or the fence is tightly secured to posts.

PVC coating seems to be peeling.

Avoid using harsh chemicals for cleaning. If minor peeling occurs, monitor the area for rust and consider applying a protective sealant if widespread.

Mesh is too large for intended purpose (e.g., small pests).

Consider layering the wire mesh or using it in conjunction with finer mesh materials for smaller animals or pests.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and long-lasting due to steel and PVC coating.
  • Safe for use around plants and animals.
  • Flexible and easy to cut or shape for custom installations.
  • Provides good coverage with its 25m length and 1m height.
  • Suitable for a wide range of applications from garden protection to animal housing.

Cons

  • The 50mm mesh size may not be sufficient to exclude very small pests or predators.
  • Requires basic tools for cutting and installation.
  • PVC coating can potentially be damaged by sharp objects or excessive abrasion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The wire netting can be easily unrolled and positioned. For installation, it can be cut to size using appropriate wire cutters. Secure the fence using stakes, staples, or ties, depending on the application and the surface it's being attached to. Ensure ends are smoothed or tucked to prevent snags.

Compatibility: This wire netting is compatible with most standard fencing posts and support structures. It can be used directly on the ground, attached to wooden frames, or integrated into existing fencing systems.

Care: Minimal care is required due to the durable PVC coating. Periodically check for any damage to the coating or rust. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or sharp tools that could scratch the PVC.
