Fence Hexagonal Mesh 1.6 x 100 m Galvanized Steel VidaXL Lumarko

The Fence Hexagonal Mesh 1.6 x 100 m Galvanized Steel VidaXL Lumarko is a flexible roll of hexagonal-patterned galvanized steel mesh intended for perimeter fencing, garden protection and small animal enclosures. With a length of 100 m and a height of 1.6 m, the roll can be cut to size for gates, patches or continuous runs. The galvanized finish offers corrosion resistance for outdoor use while the hexagonal structure provides a balance of rigidity and flexibility for contours and uneven terrain.

Advantages

This hexagonal mesh fence combines ease of handling with durable surface protection. The galvanized steel resists rust and requires minimal maintenance. The roll format allows cutting to custom lengths and adapting to sloped ground or irregular outlines. The mesh pattern secures plants and small animals while permitting visibility and airflow, making it suitable for a variety of outdoor protection tasks.

Suitable for

• Perimeter fencing around gardens and allotments
• Creating small animal pens and chicken runs
• Protecting shrubs, young trees and flowerbeds from pests
• Temporary barriers and reinforcement for landscaping projects

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended as a high-security barrier for preventing determined intruders or large animals; the mesh size and gauge are optimized for light containment and protection rather than heavy-duty security. For applications requiring climbing deterrents, high tensile strength or welded panels, consider specialist security fencing or thicker welded mesh panels.

Key specifications

• Material: galvanized steel for outdoor corrosion resistance
• Pattern: hexagonal mesh structure providing flexibility and visibility
• Dimensions: nominal height 1.6 m; roll length 100 m (cut to required length)
• Format: roll suitable for on-site cutting and shaping

How to use

Measure and mark the required length and height along the intended fence line, taking into account posts and gates. Unroll the mesh and secure one end to a sturdy start post, then tension and attach to intermediate posts at regular intervals using staples, clips or wire ties. Trim excess material with appropriate cutting tools and fold or twist the mesh edges to reduce sharp ends. Where necessary, reinforce the base with stakes or buried edging to prevent animals from pushing under the fence.

What to consider before purchase

• Required fence height and total run length to determine number of rolls and posts
• Post type and spacing appropriate for intended use and wind/load conditions
• Tools needed for cutting, fastening and tensioning the mesh
• Local ground conditions and whether additional anchoring or ground prep is necessary

Usage recommendations

For best results use galvanized or treated posts to match the corrosion resistance of the mesh, install posts at consistent spacing (typically 1.5–2.5 m depending on load), and maintain moderate tension to keep the mesh neat while allowing some flex. Regularly inspect fixings and repair any damaged sections to extend service life.
