Garden & General Galvanised Wire Mesh
Rackerman galvanised wire mesh is a versatile welded steel mesh for garden and general use — borders and boundaries, pet and poultry runs, compost bays, plant and tree protection, screens and DIY projects. With a balanced 19–25mm aperture in galvanised steel, it is strong, rigid and built to last outdoors, giving you a tidy, see-through barrier that holds its shape season after season.
Welded wire mesh (weldmesh) is manufactured to BS EN 10223-4 by resistance-welding galvanised steel wires into a rigid grid that will not unravel when cut. That makes it far easier to work with than woven netting: panels stay square, edges stay clean, and the mesh keeps its tension between posts without sagging — ideal for neat garden runs and quick DIY enclosures.
Choosing the Right Mesh

| Balanced 19–25mm for garden & general use | This galvanised wire mesh |
Typical Uses for Wire Mesh
Garden wire mesh is used for border fencing, pet and poultry runs, plant and tree protection, screens and guards, compost bays, render and plaster backing, and general DIY. The 19–25mm aperture is the all-rounder — small enough to contain poultry and protect plants, open enough to stay light and easy to handle.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What wire mesh size do I need?
Match the hole to the job: 6 to 13mm for rodents and small birds, 19 to 25mm for aviaries and pets, 50mm for general fencing and security.
Is welded mesh stronger than woven mesh?
Yes — welded joints make weldmesh rigid and tamper-resistant, so it holds its shape and will not unravel when cut.
Can I use galvanised wire mesh outdoors?
Yes; galvanising resists rust. For coastal or high-wet sites, choose PVC-coated mesh for extra life.
