Plastic Mesh Netting: how to tension a lightweight mesh fence with pins so it stays upright in wind
Buying plastic barrier netting for the first time raises the same handful of questions every time: how much do I need, how do I stop it sagging, and will it actually do the job. Here is what matters for 1m x 25m garden fence barrier with 100 fixed straps specifically.
Measuring your run
Measure the full perimeter of the area you want to enclose, then add a little extra for overlap at joins and for wrapping around corner posts rather than cutting and rejoining. 1m high x 25m long, includes 100 fixing straps is what this particular roll or kit gives you — check it against your measured perimeter before you order, since buying one roll short usually costs more in a second delivery than buying slightly generous the first time.
How to tension a lightweight mesh fence with pins so it stays upright in wind
Goes up and comes down in an afternoon with no tools, so a run can be resized, moved to fresh grass, or packed away between seasons. That is the main reason to pick this material over the alternatives in our range — weigh it against a permanent wire or panel fence, if you find yourself moving the mesh fence back to the same spot every season.
Fitting it
Set posts first at even spacing, then unroll the mesh and fix it to each post working along the line, keeping steady tension so the mesh does not sag between posts.
The short version
Measure first, buy slightly generous, and match the material to the actual risk in your garden rather than the cheapest option on the page. Get in touch if you are not sure 1m x 25m garden fence barrier with 100 fixed straps is the right fit for your run.
