VidaXL Hexagonal Steel Fence Grey 1 x 100 m

VidaXL Hexagonal Steel Fence Grey 1 x 100 m is a length of hexagonal-pattern welded steel mesh finished in a grey coating. Designed for outdoor use, this fencing roll provides a continuous barrier for gardens, small animal enclosures and perimeter delineation. The hexagonal mesh geometry delivers mechanical strength while allowing visibility and airflow, and the steel construction offers resistance to mechanical wear. The product is supplied as a 1 m high by 100 m long roll for flexible installation along straight runs and curved boundaries.

Advantages

The hexagonal structure balances tensile strength with flexibility, making the fence easier to shape around posts and irregular terrain without cracking. The grey finish reduces visual contrast with typical garden and outdoor surroundings and helps protect the steel from surface corrosion. Delivered as a long continuous roll, the fencing minimizes joints and reduces installation time compared with many short-panel systems. The open mesh permits light and air flow while maintaining a physical barrier.

Suitable for

• Garden boundaries and landscaping separations
• Chicken runs, rabbit hutches and small-animal pens
• Temporary or permanent perimeter fencing for allotments and yards
• Support for climbing plants and vineyard rows

When it may not be suitable

This steel mesh is intended for containment and boundary marking rather than high-security applications; it does not provide the same level of resistance as heavy-duty anti-climb palisade or welded wire security panels. It is not a privacy screen — the open hexagonal pattern permits visibility through the fence. For extremely corrosive environments (constant salt spray or chemical exposure), consider a purpose-specified stainless steel or specially coated system.

Key specifications

• Material: steel mesh with protective grey finish
• Pattern: hexagonal wire mesh
• Dimensions: 1 m height × 100 m length (single roll)
• Application environment: outdoor use for garden and perimeter fencing
• Function: containment and boundary marking with airflow and visibility

How to use

Unroll the fencing along the intended boundary and secure to upright posts at regular intervals using appropriate ties, clips or staples compatible with steel wire. For straight runs, tension the roll to remove slack before fastening; for curved runs, shape the mesh gradually and fix at closer post intervals to maintain form. Where needed, trim the wire ends with suitable cutting tools and fold or bend protruding ends to prevent sharp points. For long-term installations, embed or anchor posts in the ground and check the protective coating for any damage during fitting, touching up exposed areas with appropriate metal paint or rust inhibitor.

What to consider before purchase

• Required length and height to ensure full coverage of your boundary
• Post spacing and post type suitable for the 1 m high mesh
• Local exposure conditions (wet coastal areas may need higher corrosion resistance)
• Tools and fixings needed for cutting, tensioning and securing the fence

Usage recommendations

Install with posts set at regular intervals (commonly 1.5–3 m depending on ground conditions) and maintain tension to avoid sagging; inspect coating annually and address any scratches to prolong service life. For animal enclosures, check mesh aperture size against species to prevent escape or entrapment.
