Hexagonal Fence Grey 0.6 x 100 m Steel VidaXL

The Hexagonal Fence Grey 0.6 x 100 m Steel VidaXL is a roll of hexagonal wire mesh designed for outdoor fencing tasks. Made from steel with a grey protective coating, the fencing is supplied as a continuous 100-metre roll with a 0.6‑metre height, intended for perimeter protection, garden borders, animal enclosures, erosion control and supporting climbing plants.

Advantages

The steel construction offers mechanical strength suited to basic protection and containment tasks while the grey coating increases resistance to weathering and reduces visible rusting compared with raw steel. Supplied as a long roll, the mesh is easy to transport and unroll on site, allowing straightforward cutting to required lengths. The hexagonal pattern provides flexibility to conform to uneven ground and creates multiple attachment points for posts, ties or climbing plants.

Suitable for

• Garden borders and decorative perimeter edging
• Small animal enclosures and poultry runs
• Erosion control on slopes and embankments
• Supporting climbing plants and training vines
• Temporary or semi-permanent fencing for construction or site protection

When it may not be suitable

This hexagonal wire fence is designed for light to medium-duty applications rather than heavy security needs; it is not intended to replace high-security welded mesh or palisade fencing. For very tall enclosures, livestock with high strength or areas requiring certified tamper-resistant barriers, a heavier gauge or welded solution should be considered.

Key specifications

• Material: steel with protective grey coating
• Mesh type: hexagonal wire mesh
• Roll dimensions: 0.6 m (height) x 100 m (length)
• Flexible mesh suitable for contouring to ground

How to use

Prepare the installation line by marking post locations and ensuring stable posts are set at regular intervals. Unroll the mesh along the prepared line and cut to length where needed using appropriate wire cutters. Attach the mesh to posts using staples, wire ties or clips, keeping the bottom edge close to the ground to prevent animal escape. For stability on slopes or loose soil, add ground stakes or a bottom wire and tension the mesh at the top to reduce sagging.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the required height and total length for your project
• Check whether the mesh gauge and coating meet your durability needs
• Plan post spacing and the number of fixings or ties required
• Consider whether additional ground anchoring or reinforcement is needed for steep sites

Usage recommendations

For longer-term installations, place treated or concrete-set posts at regular intervals and use corrosion-resistant ties. Overlap adjacent rolls by at least one mesh unit and fasten overlaps securely. Trim sharp wire ends and, when used for plant support, train young shoots gradually to avoid damaging the mesh or plants.
