This hardware cloth is a 48 in. by 100 ft. roll with a 1/2 in. by 1/2 in. opening and a 19-Gauge wire that is hot dipped galvanized for outdoor use. The welded construction adds rigidity, while the flat mesh design provides a clean appearance that blends with landscape features. Galvanization offers corrosion resistance in soil, moisture, and sun, making it suitable for gardens, animal enclosures, and barrier projects. The mesh can be cut, shaped, and fastened with staples or ties, though guidance is needed for proper tool use. The fabric is sturdy enough to resist bending under typical wind loads and provides a stable barrier for small critters. It serves well as poultry netting, rabbit fencing, and general garden protection, helping to deter digging and chewing. For installation, dig a shallow trench first and install the mesh 2 to 3 ft. deep in the ground to improve security against burrowing animals; backfill to secure the edges. Handling requires gloves and proper cut protection, especially when trimming along the edges. This mesh offers long term service with minimal maintenance when installed in appropriate conditions. The mesh remains flexible enough to conform to uneven ground when supported by posts.
