Product Information

Full details

The SecureFix Direct Galvanised Chicken Wire Mesh Fencing is an ideal solution for agricultural and domestic users seeking a reliable, long-lasting barrier for small animal enclosures or garden protection. Its primary benefit is the heavy-duty galvanised coating that resists rust and environmental degradation, ensuring structural integrity in harsh weather. However, users should note that the mesh requires a sturdy frame or dedicated support posts, as it is not self-supporting and can kink if handled improperly during installation.

FAQs

Can this mesh be used for dog pens?

Yes, it is suitable for small to medium-sized dogs, provided the mesh is securely stapled to a sturdy wooden frame.

Does the wire come with staples?

No, fencing staples or fasteners must be purchased separately.

Can I cut this with standard scissors?

No, you should use heavy-duty wire cutters or metal snips to ensure a clean cut and prevent damaging your scissors.

Is this wire safe for use with organic gardens?

Yes, the galvanised coating is stable and generally considered safe for use around garden beds.

How long will the fencing last?

Due to the galvanised finish, the lifespan is significant, often lasting several years even in humid or wet environments.

Can it be buried in the soil?

Yes, burying the bottom few inches can help prevent burrowing animals from digging underneath the fence.

Troubleshooting

Mesh is sagging between posts

Ensure the wire was pulled taut during installation or add an intermediate support post to reduce the span.

Visible signs of rust appearing

Small spots are usually surface oxidation; clean with a stiff brush and apply a galvanising touch-up spray.

Wire edges are difficult to manage

Always use wire snips to create clean edges and fold the sharp wire ends back toward the frame to prevent injury.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent resistance to rust due to galvanisation
  • Lightweight and easy to transport in roll format
  • Highly versatile for both garden and livestock use
  • Simple to cut to custom dimensions with standard tools
  • Long-lasting performance in diverse weather conditions

Cons

  • Requires external supports or wooden frames to stand
  • Edges can be sharp and require careful handling with gloves
  • Not intended for heavy-duty livestock like cattle or horses

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, clear your path and drive your support posts at intervals of 1 to 1.5 meters. Unroll the mesh along the line of the posts and fix it starting from one corner. Always ensure the wire is pulled taut to prevent sagging.

Compatibility: This mesh works well with timber posts, metal T-posts, or existing garden wire fences. To maintain the mesh, inspect the fence lines every six months for any damage caused by wildlife. If the galvanised coating is scratched, you can apply a cold-galvanising spray paint to touch up the exposed metal and prevent future oxidation.
