Economical boundary fencing
Diamond mesh supplied in rolls and tensioned between posts. It is the most economical way to enclose a boundary, and because the components are simple, it can be installed quickly over long runs and uneven ground.

Fast to install and easy to re-use on another site.
A knuckle edge is folded back on itself, so there is no exposed wire end and the fence is safer to handle. A twist edge leaves a barbed finish along the top, which deters climbing. Knuckle-knuckle is common for public sites; knuckle-twist is used where a security edge is wanted.
50×50 mm is the general-purpose size. Smaller apertures such as 25×25 mm are used for ball courts and where small animals or objects must be contained. Larger apertures reduce cost and weight where only a visual boundary is required.
A top rail gives a neater line and helps hold the mesh at the correct height, particularly on taller fences and around sports pitches. On short domestic fences it is often omitted.
Send the aperture, wire diameter, height, coating and total length so we can quote the mesh, posts and fittings together.
