Fence net: application features, types, material

Fence

Mesh fences today are among the cheapest and most sought after. They are used in the construction of both permanent and temporary fences.

Depending on the type and material, the mesh for fencing is used for gardens, summer cottages, protected objects, construction projects, sports competitions, etc.

The orange fencing net is an excellent temporary fence.

Types of modern mesh fences

Modern fence mesh is of two types:

  • Metallic.
  • Plastic.

Let us take a closer look at what differences exist between these species, and in which industries each of them applies.

Metal grid

Chain-link in rolls.

This material allows you to create lightweight fencing, intended for the delimitation of the territory, as well as strong fences that ensure the security of the protected area.

The design of the fence of metal mesh is of several types:

  1. Tension fences. For them the rolled chain-link is used. Standard roll sizes: width - 1.5 meters, length 10-20 meters. Such fences from the grid are erected by tensioning the web on the pillars for the fence.

Tip! In order to ensure good web tension, you can use a special tensioning mechanism or make it manually using the lever principle.

  1. Sectional fences. They are considered more reliable constructions, since they are assembled from ready-made modules, represented by mesh cloth, welded onto a rigid steel frame. Fastening of the intake sections to the supports is carried out either by welding or on bolts. Standard section sizes are 1.5 by 2.5 meters.

Sectional mesh fencing.

The above designs of fences are excellent garden options, but if you need a serious fence, you should pay attention to the options of the welded mesh. These are sectional hedges, which differ from a chain-link in that all the points of contact between the wires are connected by spot welding.

Thus, it turns out a much more durable and reliable mesh, which can be of the following types:

  1. Not galvanized. This material has a low price, which does not give it popularity because it is prone to corrosion.

Tip! Mesh fence from neo-galvanized cloth must be covered with special anti-corrosion compounds.

  1. Galvanized. Due to the presence of a protective zinc coating, such fencing mesh is more durable and, accordingly, popular.
  2. Polymer coated. Due to the special protective layer of polyvinyl chloride, such structures are protected from temperature changes, fading and corrosion.

The advantages of metal mesh for fencing:

  • Easy do-it-yourself installation. If we talk about sectional fences, the instructions for installing them are not more difficult than assembling a designer.
  • Acceptable cost.
  • Durability and undemanding special care. The only thing you should do from time to time is to tint the surrounding areas of the anti-corrosion coating. The minimum service life of such fences exceeds 20 years.
  • If you show imagination, then you can get not only reliable, but also a beautiful fence. For example, you can install a mesh fence on a brick or stone base.

In this photo, the sectional fence of the chain-link is installed on a brick base, which allows to increase the height of the fence, making it stronger and more attractive.

Use of metal net:

  • For the delimitation of gardens and cottages.
  • As a support for weaving plants.
  • For fencing sprouts, seedlings, etc.
  • For protected objects (parking, plants, etc.)

Plastic fencing

Plastic fence nets are lighter and less durable than their metal counterparts, and therefore they are most often used as temporary fences.

This material is sold in rolls and has a bright orange color, because it is often used as an emergency fence net, and therefore should be clearly visible, especially when work is being done on the road.

Plastic construction fence.

Consider some of the obvious advantages of a plastic web:

  • Ease.
  • Simplicity of installation and dismantle. In most cases, such a canvas is fixed on temporary pillars, which are independent, and therefore they do not need to be driven into the ground.
  • Non-corrosive. The material is not afraid of both moisture and extreme temperatures.
  • Low cost is also an undeniable advantage.

Application areas:

  • As a barrier during road works, where the net is used along with protective posts.
  • In the event of a collapse of the roof, balcony, icicles, the area near the house is protected with plastic mesh, cones or tape.
  • When carrying out minor construction, installation or restoration work.
  • In gardening as a fence for seedlings and a frame for weaving plants.

Basis for weaving plants.

  • When conducting archaeological excavations.
  • In the organization of meetings, concerts, etc.
  • Plastic nets for fencing sports fields are used much more often than any other material. In this case, you do not need to purchase a grid, because today there is such a service as the rental of fencing for construction sites.

Conclusion

As you can see, mesh fences have a very wide scope. In this case, the scope of application directly depends on the material. However, these types of hedges of any kind are very easy to install and do not need any maintenance at all, and their cost will be acceptable even for those whose family budget is going through hard times.
