Product Information

Full details

This Galvanised Wire Netting is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts needing a durable solution for garden and animal enclosures. Its key benefit is the corrosion-resistant galvanised finish, ensuring longevity in outdoor environments. A potential caveat is its specific mesh size and gauge, which may not be suitable for all applications requiring finer or stronger mesh.

FAQs

What is the mesh size of this netting?

The mesh size is 25mm (approximately 1 inch).

What is the wire gauge?

The wire gauge is 20.

Can this netting be used for dog kennels?

While suitable for many animal enclosures, the 25mm mesh and 20 gauge wire might not be strong enough for larger, more determined dogs. Consider heavier gauge netting for such applications.

Is the galvanised finish safe for plants?

Yes, the galvanised finish is generally safe for plants and provides a durable structure for climbing varieties.

How should I store the netting if I don't use the entire roll?

Store the roll in a dry place, ideally elevated off the ground to prevent moisture buildup. If stored outdoors, cover it loosely to protect it from direct rain and dirt.

Will this netting rust easily?

The galvanised coating provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, making it suitable for long-term outdoor use. Significant rust is unlikely unless the coating is severely damaged.

Can I join multiple rolls together?

Yes, you can join multiple rolls by overlapping the ends and securing them together with wire ties or hog rings for a continuous barrier.

Troubleshooting

Netting is difficult to cut

Ensure you are using heavy-duty wire cutters specifically designed for metal mesh. For thicker gauges, leverage or powered cutters may be necessary.

Rust spots appearing over time

This can occur if the galvanised coating is scratched or damaged. Clean the area and apply a galvanised repair paint or zinc-rich primer to the affected spot.

Netting is not holding its shape

Ensure adequate support posts or framing are used. The netting requires tension and support to maintain its form, especially when stretched over larger areas.

Sharp edges after cutting

Always wear protective gloves when handling the netting. Carefully file down any excessively sharp edges or cover them with wire protectors if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent corrosion resistance due to galvanisation.
  • Multi-purpose for garden, pets, and general security.
  • Durable construction suitable for outdoor exposure.
  • Provides good support for climbing plants.
  • Easy to cut and shape for various DIY needs.

Cons

  • Mesh size (25mm) may be too large for very small pests.
  • Wire gauge (20) might be insufficient for applications requiring heavy-duty security.
  • Galvanised finish can sometimes leave residue on hands.
  • Length and height are fixed, requiring potential joins for larger projects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up this galvanised wire netting is straightforward for most DIY projects. It can be easily cut to size using wire cutters. For securing it, consider using galvanised staples, U-nails, or ties, depending on the surface you are attaching it to (e.g., wooden posts, brickwork).

Compatibility:

This netting is compatible with most standard fencing posts, frames, and structures. Its galvanised nature makes it suitable for use in various environmental conditions, including damp or coastal areas where corrosion is a concern.

Care Instructions:

While the galvanised coating offers excellent protection, periodic inspection is recommended. Clean the netting with water if it becomes excessively dirty. For long-term preservation in harsh environments, a light application of a clear, non-toxic sealant suitable for galvanised steel could be considered, though it is generally not required for typical use. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the protective zinc coating.
