The trenk standard
The details you notice
during installation.
Good hardware cloth should feel predictable: straight when you unroll it, clean where it is welded and consistent from one end to the other.
Uniform square openings
Consistent horizontal and vertical spacing helps the mesh align cleanly against wood frames and project edges.
Smooth welded joints
Flat intersections reduce snagging and create a cleaner finished appearance than bulky, uneven weld points.
Consistent galvanized finish
A clean silver galvanized surface gives the mesh a practical, familiar appearance for gardens, animal enclosures and DIY projects.

01Should I choose 1/2 in or 1/4 in mesh?+
Choose 1/2 in mesh for most chicken runs, rabbit enclosures and general garden fencing. Choose 1/4 in mesh when you need a smaller opening for young animals, bed-bottom barriers or added protection from small rodents.
02What finish is available?+
The current trenk range is available in a clean silver galvanized finish across both 1/2 inch and 1/4 inch square mesh openings.
03Can galvanized welded wire mesh be buried?+
Yes. It is commonly extended below grade or laid beneath raised beds to discourage digging pests. Avoid unnecessarily sharp bends, secure adjoining sections carefully and account for local soil and moisture conditions when planning the installation.
04How do I choose the right roll width?+
Measure the finished barrier height plus any section that will be buried, folded or fastened to a frame. trenk roll widths range from 24 to 72 inches, with 50 ft and 100 ft length options for small and large projects.
