Mesh fencing - the best option to designate the boundaries

Metal mesh fence performs several functions at once:

• Indicates the perimeter of the site;
• Protects the territory;
• Performs decorative functions;
• It is used as a frame for climbing plants (it creates a kind of hedge).

  

  Welded mesh as fencing

Metal mesh fences are used for a long time. In view of their clear advantage over other types of protective elements, consumers often prefer them to them.

What are their advantages?

1. Low price. Today it is an important factor that influences the choice.
2. Structural strength. Still, these are metal products with inherent characteristics.
3. Huge term of operation.
4. Easy care. Usually such constructions are simply stained. It is important to choose a good paint that will last several years. Of course, after that you will have to upgrade the fence, but this is not a very big expense.
5. It is possible to change the color design.
6. Easy installation. If you have a desire to install such a fence with your own hands, then you will cope with this process without problems. Here, even accurate instructions are not required - everything is simple and accessible.

Types of mesh fences

Attention! Mesh fencing do not require special attention. Having established them once, you receive very strong and reliable construction behind which only periodic care is necessary. From dust and dirt such a fence is best to relieve the pressure of water.

Types of mesh metal fencing

Like any type of construction, metal fences are divided into types. The differences in the models are mainly based on purely design features.

I.e:

• Cell shape. In this category are two types: square and rectangular.
• Are there any stiffeners or are they missing?.
• Upper edge shape. And here there may be many options, it all depends on the design you choose. This may include a smooth edge, undulating, carbon and so on.

Of all those present on the market to date metal "net" protections are the cheapest. This has already been mentioned above. But increasingly, it is the simplicity of the installation process becomes the most important selection criterion. After all, it must be confessed that the cost of the services of masters grows every year, which means that we have to choose what we can install on our own (this is a big saving).

How to build a mesh fence

There are two types of installation of mesh fencing:

1. using a mesh roll;
2. using panels.

The first option is one of the fastest ways to build fences, but it has a drawback - the grid can sag if it is not good to pull. Therefore, at the present time panel mesh fences are becoming increasingly popular.

Stretching mesh chain-link on the frame

What are they? First, we note that this is a separate element, which is manufactured in the factory. Although it can be made at the place of installation.

Secondly, for their manufacture, a frame construction is welded, which is a square or rectangular metal element made of their angles, pipes or other metal profiles. It is on the frame and tensioned mesh for the fence.

That is, it turns out quite a rigid structure, which is installed between the support struts, and, as usual, is attached to them by welding or bolting.

Attention! The convenience of this model of fencing is that you can accurately calculate the required number of panels, their size and installation location.

Currently, mesh panel fences are used in suburban construction quite often. This is due to the fact that it can be installed independently. Therefore, we proceed to the stages of construction of this design.

Mesh panel fencing, as a separate element

Installation of pillars

Stage serious. It is important to accurately distribute the rack relative to the perimeter of the site. And the first rack that will become a point of reference is the pillar on which the entrance gates will be mounted. That is, the installation and installation of fencing begins with the gate.

Then everything is simple:

1. measure the finished panel in length;
2. lay on the ground from the first pillar this distance around the perimeter;
3. using the drill to create wells;
4. fill them with sand or rubble (this is a kind of pillow);
5. insert racks and pour concrete solution.

Attention! Experts recommend that the length of the bottom of the racks (which is located in the ground) was not less than one third of the entire length of the support column.

Installation of panels

After the concrete hardens (it is necessary to allocate several days for this, optimally seven days), you can begin the installation of mesh fence panels. It is important to expose each horizontally and flush with the racks. That is, there should be no distortions either in the perimeter plane or in the installation plane. After that, the fastening of each panel is carried out separately.

Welding when installing mesh fencing

The best option - if you boil the panels on all sides along the entire length of the contact with the racks. But it is very expensive, so each welding seam should not be less than five centimeters, and the distance between the seams should not exceed 50 centimeters.

New in the field of fences

Of course, metal is expensive. Therefore, manufacturers of plastic products began to offer new structural materials that are not inferior to metal in their physico-technical and operational indicators. For example, plastic nets for fencing sports fields (bottom photo).

Of course, you will not put such grids on a country site, but what the hell is not joking, manufacturers are still in the process of search and research. It may take not so many years, and plastic will force the metal out of this niche. Let's wait.

Services offered

The construction boom is in full swing. Fencing elements are in high demand. Today they are trying to protect construction sites without using more expensive concrete fences or corrugated flooring. In addition, a service appeared on the market - rental fencing for construction sites, which is what many construction companies use today.

By the way, KTP fencing is also produced by mesh fencing. However, for these purposes it is necessary to meet certain requirements that relate to the strength, reliability and safety of structures. Therefore, the advice is to purchase such fences only from the manufacturer who guarantees the quality of their products.

Conclusion on the topic

Mesh metal fence - is today one of the most popular protective structures. It is used by private traders and large construction companies. In the presented video in this article you will find additional information on this topic.
