60cm Galvanised Chicken Wire Mesh

600mm Galvanised Chicken Wire Mesh is a versatile, flexible and easy-to-install fencing mesh suitable for a wide range of garden, horticultural, agricultural and general-purpose applications. Manufactured from galvanised steel wire, this hexagonal wire mesh provides a practical barrier for protecting plants, creating animal enclosures and completing general fencing projects.

The compact 600mm width makes these chicken wire rolls particularly easy to handle, cut and install where a narrower strip of mesh is required. Available with 25mm or 50mm hexagonal apertures, the two options provide flexibility for different fencing and protection requirements.

The 25mm mesh is manufactured from 22 gauge wire, approximately 0.7mm thick, while the 50mm mesh uses heavier 20 gauge wire, approximately 0.9mm thick. Available in 10m, 25m and 50m roll lengths, these 600mm-wide chicken wire rolls are suitable for projects of different sizes, from small garden applications to larger horticultural and agricultural projects.

Flexible Hexagonal Mesh

The hexagonal mesh design provides excellent flexibility, allowing the wire to be shaped around posts, frames, trees and other structures. This makes the 600mm chicken wire particularly useful for animal enclosures, garden fencing, fruit cages, tree guards and plant protection.

The 25mm aperture with 22 gauge wire provides a finer mesh option where a smaller opening is preferred. The 50mm aperture with heavier 20 gauge wire provides a stronger option for more general-purpose fencing and protection applications.

The 600mm width is especially useful where full-height fencing is not required or where a narrower strip of mesh is easier to work with.

25mm Galvanised Chicken Wire

The 25mm x 25mm hexagonal mesh is manufactured from 22 gauge steel wire, approximately 0.7mm thick. The smaller aperture makes it suitable for applications requiring a finer mesh opening, including poultry protection, smaller animal enclosures, fruit cages, plant protection and general garden projects.

Available roll lengths include 10m, 25m and 50m, allowing the mesh to be selected according to the size of the project.

50mm Galvanised Chicken Wire

The 50mm x 50mm hexagonal mesh is manufactured from heavier 20 gauge steel wire, approximately 0.9mm thick. The larger aperture provides greater openness while the heavier wire provides a stronger option for general-purpose fencing, animal enclosures, garden protection and agricultural applications.

The 50mm mesh is available in 10m, 25m and 50m roll lengths.

Galvanised Steel for Outdoor Use

The steel wire is finished with a protective galvanised zinc coating to help resist corrosion and rust. This makes the mesh suitable for outdoor applications around gardens, allotments, agricultural areas, horticultural projects and animal enclosures.

The flexible construction allows the chicken wire to be easily shaped, cut and secured to suitable supporting structures.

Installation Guidance

1. Measure the area to be enclosed or protected and determine the required length of mesh.
2. Install suitable posts, stakes, frames or supporting structures where required.
3. Unroll the 600mm-wide chicken wire carefully along the required area.
4. Cut the mesh to the required length using suitable wire cutters.
5. Position and shape the mesh around posts, frames, trees or other structures.
6. Secure the mesh at regular intervals using suitable staples, clips, ties or other appropriate fixings.
7. Check the completed installation for gaps, loose sections or exposed sharp wire ends.
8. Where required, fold or secure cut edges to reduce exposed wire ends.

For animal enclosures, ensure the mesh is securely fixed and that the aperture and installation are suitable for the animals being contained.

Please Note

The wire is galvanised before twisting. When the mesh is cut, exposed wire ends may be more susceptible to surface rust where the protective coating has been removed.

For demanding or long-term outdoor installations, cut ends can be protected using a suitable galvanising spray or paint.

Care should be taken when handling and cutting galvanised wire mesh, as cut wire ends can be sharp. Suitable gloves and appropriate protective equipment should be used during installation.
