Weldmesh Fencing Supplied and Installed in South Africa

Weldmesh fencing is made from steel wires laid in a grid and welded at every crossing, so the openings stay square and the mesh does not unravel when cut. It is stiffer than woven mesh and gives a neat, straight look. diamondmesh.co.za makes buying it easy: send one free request and a fencing contractor or supplier in your area replies with a quote for the mesh, poles and installation.

Weld mesh fencing rolls and panels

Weld mesh fencing comes in two main forms. Light rolls are used for gardens, pens and chicken runs. Heavier rigid panels are used for boundaries and security. Common South African options are:

  • Welded mesh fencing 50x50 mm openings for small animals, pets and general boundaries
  • Welded mesh fencing 100x100 mm or 50 x 100 mm openings for larger areas at lower cost
  • Heights of 0.9 m, 1.2 m, 1.5 m, 1.8 m and 2.1 m
  • Galvanised wire, or galvanised and PVC-coated in green or black

Welded mesh fencing price

A welded mesh fencing price found online is usually for one roll or one panel. The fence also needs poles, straining wire or rails, concrete footings, labour and gates. Smaller openings and thicker wire use more steel, so they cost more per metre. Rolls are quicker to put up on uneven ground, while panels need posts set at exact spacings. Coastal sites may need PVC-coated mesh to slow rust. Ask for a quote that lists the wire thickness, opening size and coating so you can compare like with like.

Where weldmesh fencing works best

Weldmesh is a good choice for chicken runs, dog runs, vegetable gardens, nurseries, school gardens and enclosures for small livestock. Because the welded joints hold their shape, animals cannot push the wires apart, and snakes and small predators find it harder to get through fine mesh. Heavier panels are used around plant rooms, equipment yards and parking areas. Weldmesh can also be fixed to a timber frame or a palisade fence to close the gaps, which stops small dogs squeezing through and keeps balls and litter in or out.

How to compare weldmesh fencing quotes

The cheapest price per metre is not always the best value in fencing. When your weldmesh fencing quote arrives, check:

  • Materials: the wire or steel thickness, the type of galvanising or coating, and the pole size and spacing. Thinner material looks the same on day one but fails sooner.
  • Foundations: how deep the poles are set and whether they are concreted. Most fence failures start at the posts.
  • What is included: gates, locks, corner stays, removal of an old fence, site clearing and rubble removal.
  • Guarantee and timing: workmanship guarantees, the expected start date and how long installation will take.

Our service passes your request to a contractor who works in your area, so you can ask these questions before you commit. It costs nothing and you are under no obligation to accept the quote.

Request a weldmesh fencing quote

To get an accurate quote quickly, include:

  • The total length of fence in metres
  • The height and opening size you want, such as 50x50 or 100x100
  • Whether you prefer rolls or rigid panels
  • Galvanised or PVC-coated, and the colour
  • The number and width of gates

Photos or a rough sketch of the boundary help too. Mention them in the details and the contractor will ask for them.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between weldmesh and diamond mesh?

Weldmesh wires are welded at every crossing, so the mesh is stiff and the square openings keep their shape. Diamond mesh is woven, more flexible, and follows uneven ground more easily.

Is weldmesh strong enough for security fencing?

Light weldmesh rolls are for gardens and animals. For security, ask for heavy rigid panels or anti-climb clear view mesh, with an electric fence or razor wire on top.
