1.What is a welded wire mesh fence?
A welded wire mesh fence is a rigid fencing panel made from steel wires that are welded together at each intersection. This creates a strong, durable, and stable panel with fixed square or rectangular openings. It is commonly used for security, animal containment, and property boundaries.
2.What wire diameters and mesh openings are available?
Wire diameters typically range from 2.0mm to 6.0mm. Common mesh openings include 50x50mm, 50x100mm, 75x150mm, and 100x100mm. Smaller openings and thicker wire provide higher security and strength. Larger openings offer better visibility and lower material cost.
3.What materials and coatings are available?
Common materials include hot-dipped galvanized steel, electro-galvanized steel, PVC coated steel, and stainless steel. Hot-dipped galvanized offers the best corrosion resistance for outdoor use. PVC coated mesh adds color options (green, black, white) and extra protection against rust and UV damage.
4.What are the standard panel dimensions?
Panel heights range from 0.6m to 2.4m. Panel widths are typically 1.5m, 2.0m, or 2.5m. Fence posts are usually installed at 2.0m to 3.0m intervals. Custom heights and widths are available for specific project requirements.
5.What applications is welded wire mesh fence used for?
Garden and residential boundary fencing, animal enclosures and kennels, industrial and warehouse perimeters, sports fields and playgrounds, construction site barriers, agricultural fencing, and security fencing. The rigid structure provides better impact resistance than woven or chain link fences.
6.How is a welded wire mesh fence installed?
Installation involves setting posts in concrete footings or driving them into the ground. Panels are attached to posts using brackets, clips, or welding. Gates are fitted for access points. The rigid panels allow for quick installation compared to woven wire fencing. Professional installation is recommended for large or security-critical projects.
