Product Information
Full details
This Artificial Ivy Leaf Fence Roll from Christow is ideal for homeowners looking to quickly enhance the aesthetic appeal of their outdoor spaces, providing instant greenery and privacy. Its key benefit is its realistic appearance and durable, weather-resistant construction. A minor caveat is that while UV-stabilised, it may require occasional reapplication of UV-protective spray over many years for optimal longevity in direct sun. The product features hundreds of polyurethane ivy leaves woven onto a durable plastic chain link mesh, measuring 1m x 3m, offering a versatile solution for screening and decoration.

FAQs
How do I attach the artificial ivy to a wooden fence?
You can attach it using heavy-duty staples directly into the wooden fence posts or panels. Ensure the staples are long enough to provide a secure hold.
Is this product suitable for use in windy areas?
Yes, the leaves are hand-woven onto a durable chain link mesh, which provides superior strength and durability, making it suitable for windy conditions. However, ensure it is securely fixed.
How often does the artificial ivy need cleaning?
It requires very little cleaning, typically no more than once a year. A simple hose-down on a low-pressure setting is usually sufficient.
Will the leaves fade in direct sunlight?
The leaves are UV-stabilised, which helps to resist fading. However, for prolonged exposure over many years, a UV-protective spray may be beneficial every 5-10 years.
Can I cut the fence roll to size?
While the product can be displayed horizontally or vertically, cutting the mesh itself may compromise the integrity of the weave. It's best to use the full 1m x 3m dimensions or overlap sections if a smaller area needs covering.
What material are the leaves made from?
The leaves are made from polyurethane (PU) and are dark green in color.
Does the product come with fixings?
No, fixings such as screws, hooks, staples, or cable ties are not included with the product and must be purchased separately.
Troubleshooting
Leaves appear discolored after prolonged sun exposure.
Reapply a UV-protective spray suitable for artificial plants every 5-10 years to maintain color vibrancy. Ensure the product was described as UV-stabilised, not UV-resistant, for clarity on expected longevity.
Fence roll is not staying attached to the wall/fence.
Ensure appropriate fixings are used for the surface material (e.g., masonry drill bit for brick, strong staples for wood). Check that enough fixings have been used and they are securely installed.
Leaves are dirty or dusty.
Gently hose down the fence roll on a low-pressure setting. A light wipe with a damp cloth can be used for more stubborn dirt. Allow to air dry completely.
Product arrived damaged or with missing parts (leaves, mesh).
Contact the retailer or manufacturer with details of the damage or missing parts. Provide proof of purchase and photographic evidence if possible for a swift resolution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Fitting to Walls: To attach the fence roll to stone or brick walls, drill holes using a masonry drill bit, insert raw plugs, and then use screw hooks to hang the chain link mesh. Ensure fixings are appropriate for the wall type and weight.
Fitting to Fences: For wooden fences, heavy-duty staples are recommended for secure attachment. If fixing to existing mesh fencing, cable ties can be used to tie the chain link mesh directly to the fence.
Fixings: Please note that all necessary fixings (screws, hooks, staples, cable ties) are not included with the product and must be purchased separately.
Care Instructions: The artificial ivy requires minimal cleaning. It is recommended to clean it no more than once a year. Use a hose on a low-pressure setting to spray the leaves, a gentle wipe may be helpful for stubborn dirt, and then allow the roll to air dry. Being UV-stabilised means it resists fading, but for optimal longevity in very sunny locations, consider applying a UV-protective spray every 5 to 10 years.
