Wire mesh paneling is a great option for areas with high security, or even just to keep out unwanted pests or intruders.
Wire mesh paneling can be a tremendous upgrade for any residential or commercial fence. As a matter of fact, they are great additions to almost every home improvement project you can think of! Your home’s deck, beachfront boardwalk, and even animal enclosures can all be improved through the use of this material. Vinyl-coated welded wire panels are resilient enough to resist erosion caused by the weather. Likewise, nurseries depend on PVC wire mesh paneling to help protect the plants growing in their greenhouses. So what do you have to do? Well, start by narrowing down your options!
Sizing Up the Gauge That You’ll Need
Prefabricated wire mesh panels are pretty simple to understand. Once they are produced, they are typically flattened out during the next phase of preparation. At this point, they are either cut or sheared to order depending on the customer’s needs. The gauges, in this case, measure how strong the wire mesh paneling is. Thus, standard gauging measurements can run from 8 gauge to 16 gauge.
Distinguishing Between Wire Panels and Rolls
Okay, so you’ve picked your gauge. What comes next? You’ll have to decide if you want wire panels or wire rolls. Wired panels, for the most part, are far easier to install. That means they should be your first choice when you are about to remodel your back deck. You could, theoretically, install these panels with some assistance from other members of your household.
Wire fence rolls, on the other hand, are quite a bit larger. For this installation process to go smoothly, you will have to engage work crews with professional know-how. The team here at Hercules Fence Custom Iron is more than happy to fulfill that responsibility! Plus, some other tools and supplies help expedite the process, such as posts, rings, and pliers.
How to Get the Mesh Panels Installed
If you’re ready to get the mesh panels installed, let’s move on. The next step of the process is to consider the frame that the panels will attach to – what material will that be? Suppose it is wood, for example. Stapling the mesh will secure it more firmly. Space out the staples and give them a several-inch gap to help distribute the weight. Galvanized staples could also be worth experimenting with since they can better withstand harsh weather conditions.
