Chain-link and mesh fence installation in Tallinn

A mesh fence is rolled chain-link or welded wire mesh stretched between posts and held tight with tension wires. It is the most economical way to fence a long boundary, and it does the job well around gardens, fields, summer houses and dog runs.

Chain-link or welded mesh

Both come in rolls and are fixed in the same way, but they behave differently:

  • chain-link is woven from diamond-shaped links. It is flexible, follows uneven ground well and copes with a little movement;
  • welded mesh has square or rectangular openings welded at every crossing. It looks neater and is a bit stiffer, but needs a straighter line.

Both are available galvanised or with a green or grey coating. Coated mesh blends into a garden better and protects the wire for longer.

Why the tension wires matter

A mesh fence gets its shape from tension, not from rigid panels. We run tension wires along the top, middle and bottom, tighten them between braced corner and end posts, and fix the mesh to them.

If the corner posts are not braced or the wires are not tight, the mesh starts to sag within a season. That is the most common fault in a home-made mesh fence, and the reason we spend most of the time on the posts and corners rather than the mesh itself.

Where a mesh fence works best

A mesh fence is a good fit for:

  • long boundaries on rural plots, where panels would cost too much;
  • back and side boundaries of a garden, with a nicer fence at the street;
  • dog runs and pens, where you want a secure enclosure without blocking light;
  • vegetable gardens and orchards, to keep out deer, hares and neighbours' pets.

For dogs that dig, tell us in advance: the bottom of the mesh can be fixed closer to the ground or turned in so it is harder to get under.

Heights

We install mesh fences at 1.2 m, 1.5 m and 1.8 to 2.0 m. The lowest height is enough to mark a boundary and keep small pets in. A 1.5 m fence suits most gardens. The highest option is for larger dogs, keeping deer out of an orchard, or securing a yard.

If you want a more rigid fence or a tidier look around the house, see the 3D panel fence instead.

Frequently asked questions

Is a mesh fence cheaper than a panel fence?+

Yes, per metre it is usually the cheapest fence we install, and the difference grows on long boundaries. Compare the table here with the 3D panel fence prices.

Will the mesh sag over time?+

A properly tensioned fence on braced corner posts stays tight for a long time. If it loosens after some years, the tension wires can be tightened again without replacing the mesh.

Can you add a gate to a mesh fence?+

Yes. A pedestrian gate or a swing gate for a car fits into a mesh fence. See our gates page for the options.

Can a mesh fence go on uneven ground?+

Chain-link handles small dips and bumps well because it is flexible. On steeper slopes we set the posts to follow the ground and adjust the mesh between them.

Can you install mesh I already have?+

Yes, at the labour price in the table. Make sure you also have enough posts, tension wire and fixings for the whole length, or ask us to bring the missing parts.
