Product Information

Full details

This VidaXL wire mesh fence is designed for homeowners seeking a durable and versatile solution for property demarcation and animal enclosures. Its key benefit is the robust, weather-resistant construction offering long-lasting security. A potential caveat is that assembly requires tools and some effort due to the nature of fence installation. This system features a green PVC-coated galvanized steel mesh with interlocking properties for added strength, alongside included spike anchors and posts for straightforward, secure installation.

FAQs

What is the primary material of the fence?

The fence is made of galvanized steel with a green PVC coating.

Can I cut the fence to a custom size?

Yes, the wire mesh fence can be cut to the size you desire using appropriate cutting tools.

How is the fence secured to the ground?

The fence is secured using spike anchors for the straight and strut posts, which are driven into the ground.

What are the dimensions of the fence roll?

The fence roll measures 2.2 meters in height and 10 meters in length.

Is assembly difficult?

Assembly involves driving posts and securing the mesh, which requires manual effort. While basic tools are included, some users might find it helpful to have additional tools like a rubber mallet.

What is the mesh opening size?

The mesh opening size is 100 x 100 mm (Length x Width).

Is this fence suitable for keeping out small predators?

The fence provides a good barrier, but for very small or determined predators, additional measures like burying the mesh edge or reinforcing the base might be necessary.

Troubleshooting

Fence is sagging between posts

Ensure posts are driven deep enough into the ground and are spaced appropriately. Check that the mesh is securely fastened to each post. Consider adding additional support posts if the span is too long.

Spike anchors are difficult to drive into the ground

Soften the ground with water if it is dry and hard. If the ground is exceptionally rocky or resistant, consider alternative anchoring methods or professional installation.

PVC coating is damaged

For minor abrasions, consider using a clear sealant to prevent rust. For significant damage, evaluate if the affected section needs replacement or if the overall integrity is compromised.

Posts are unstable

Re-drive the spike anchors deeper into the ground. Ensure the posts are correctly seated on the spikes. For strut posts, verify the diagonal braces are securely attached and anchored.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent durability and strength due to galvanized steel and PVC coating.
  • Provides good protection against rust and UV damage for extended outdoor use.
  • The interlocking design enhances structural integrity and security.
  • Flexible and can be cut to specific lengths for custom applications.
  • Comes with all necessary posts and spike anchors for installation.
  • Generous dimensions cover a substantial area.

Cons

  • Assembly requires manual effort and potentially additional tools not included.
  • The wire mesh may not be suitable for containing very small or determined burrowing animals without additional ground protection.
  • Installation on uneven terrain might require extra preparation.
  • PVC coating could potentially chip or peel over many years of extreme weather exposure.
  • The green color might not suit all aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Layout Planning: Determine the desired path for your fence. Clear the area of any obstructions.
  2. Post Installation: Using a mallet or hammer, drive the straight and strut post spikes firmly into the ground at regular intervals (typically 2-3 meters apart for the fence roll, and closer for corners or gates). Ensure they are vertical and securely anchored.
  3. Attach Posts: Slide the straight and strut posts onto their respective spikes. Attach the diagonal strut post holders to the strut posts.
  4. Unroll Fence: Carefully unroll the wire mesh fence, keeping it taut.
  5. Secure Mesh: Use the provided pliers and M nails to attach the fence mesh to the posts, working your way along the entire length. For added security, you can overlap sections or use additional ties.
  6. Corner Bracing: Secure the diagonal strut posts to the ground using their spikes and attach the diagonal strut holders to the main strut posts.

Compatibility:

  • The fence is designed to be used with its included spike anchor system. For installation on very hard surfaces like concrete, alternative anchoring methods (e.g., drilling and using suitable anchors) would be required.
  • Can be combined with other fencing materials or gates, though additional hardware may be necessary.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove dust or debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the PVC coating.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect the fence for any signs of damage, such as cuts in the coating or loose attachments. Address any issues promptly to maintain integrity.
  • Rust: While galvanized and PVC-coated, prolonged exposure to highly corrosive environments might eventually reveal minor rust spots, especially if the coating is compromised. Address these with appropriate metal sealant if they appear.
