Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community! We are thrilled to have you here, and we appreciate your interest in how to attach wire mesh to a Colorbond fence.

When exploring this project, several effective methods can be found. According to a variety of resources, including forums and expert guides, a common approach is to mount a timber piece horizontally between the posts. This timber will serve as a secure base for attaching your wire mesh.

Preparation Steps

Gather Your Materials

Before you start, make sure you have all the necessary materials. You will need a piece of timber, wire mesh, screws, and possibly some clips to aid in the installation process.

Cut the Timber to Size

Measure the distance between your Colorbond fence posts and cut the timber to fit. It's important that this piece is level and securely attached to ensure the wire mesh is well supported.

Mount the Timber

Using screws, attach the timber horizontally between the posts. It’s advisable to use weather-resistant screws, especially if you live in areas with harsh weather conditions.

Attach the Wire Mesh

Once the timber is in place, you can begin attaching the wire mesh. Use Whites Mesh Panel Fix Clips and Zenith 8G x 20mm Galvanised Button Head Stitching Timber Screws for a strong hold. Position the mesh against the timber and secure it using the clips and screws.

Ensure Stability

Double-check that the wire mesh is taut and securely fastened to prevent sagging. This will help maintain the aesthetics and functionality of your fence.

Finishing Touches

After the installation, inspect the entire setup. Ensure that there are no sharp edges on the wire mesh that might be dangerous, especially for children and pets.
