Hexagonal Fencing Grey 1.2 x 50 m Steel VidaXL 3353697

Hexagonal Fencing Grey 1.2 x 50 m Steel VidaXL is a rolled steel wire mesh shaped into a hexagonal pattern and finished in grey. The 1.2 m height and 50 m length provide a continuous barrier suitable for delimiting garden areas, creating animal enclosures, supporting erosion control measures, or protecting perimeter zones. The roll arrives as a flexible sheet that can be unrolled and fastened to posts or other supports using ties, staples or wire.

Advantages

This hexagonal steel fencing offers a combination of flexibility and strength that makes it easy to shape around uneven terrain while retaining structural stability. The hexagonal mesh pattern provides consistent aperture sizes for containment and ventilation, and the grey finish reduces visual contrast in outdoor settings. Supplied as a roll, the fencing is simple to transport and store until installation.

Suitable for

• Garden and yard boundary fencing
• Small animal enclosures such as poultry runs and rabbit hutches
• Soil retention, erosion control and slope protection when fixed to supports
• Temporary barriers and site separation for landscaping projects

When it may not be suitable

This product is intended as a general-purpose hexagonal mesh and is not a load-bearing structural barrier. It is not suitable where a solid wall, high-security fencing, or legal privacy screening is required. For protection against large or powerful animals, or where building regulations specify specific fence types, a more robust or certified solution should be chosen.

Key specifications

• Material: steel wire formed into hexagonal mesh
• Finish: grey coating
• Height: 1.2 metres
• Length: 50 metres (rolled sheet)
• Mesh type: hexagonal openings for flexible containment

How to use

Unroll the fencing along the intended line and position posts at regular intervals to match local conditions and load requirements. Fix the mesh to posts using appropriate ties, staples or galvanised wire, ensuring the base of the roll is secured to prevent animals from pushing underneath. Cut to length with wire cutters where necessary and overlap adjacent rolls by one mesh pattern for continuity. Check local ground and drainage conditions before installation to determine if additional supports or anchoring are required.

What to consider before purchase

• Required height and length to cover your planned perimeter
• Type of posts and fastenings suitable for outdoor steel mesh
• Exposure to weather and whether a higher-corrosion-resistance finish is needed
• Compatibility with intended animals or site protection purpose

Usage recommendations

For longer service life, install with treated or metal posts and use corrosion-resistant fixings. When creating enclosures for small animals, secure the bottom edge to the ground or a skirt to prevent digging out. For erosion-control applications, combine the mesh with appropriate ground anchors and vegetation or geotextiles as required.
