DEWALT 2 in. x 4 in. Welded Wire Fence Roll (72 in. x 100 ft., 14-Gauge Galvanized Steel)

The DEWALT 2 in. x 4 in. Welded Wire Fence provides durable, rust-resistant fencing for garden protection, livestock containment, and property barriers. This roll covers 72 inches x 100 feet of ground, giving you plenty of material for big projects. The 14-gauge galvanized steel wire is precision-welded into a 2in x 4in mesh that holds its shape and resists sagging, bending, and warping.

DEWALT 72-Inch Welded Wire Fence: 14-Gauge Galvanized Construction

This fence is built for longevity. The hot-dip galvanization coats every wire with a protective layer of zinc, making it highly resistant to rust and corrosion from moisture, soil, and weather. The 14-gauge wire is heavy enough to withstand animal pressure and general wear but flexible enough to cut and shape on site. The 2x4 mesh opening is a versatile size – it keeps out deer, dogs, and larger pests, while containing chickens, rabbits, and other small livestock.

Choosing the Right Mesh Size and Height

The 2" x 4" mesh is a popular choice for both garden protection and animal enclosures. The 72-inch height is ideal for perimeter fences and larger animal containment. If you need to keep birds safe from hawks, you may add a netting overlay. For smaller animals, like chicks, you might want a smaller mesh or a chicken wire liner. This roll gives you the flexibility to customize your setup.

Tips for Easy Installation

To install, unroll the fence and allow it to flatten out. Use wooden or metal posts spaced 4 to 6 feet apart, and attach the wire with U-nails or zip ties. For a taut and straight fence, stretch the wire between posts and secure it. The fence can be cut with standard wire cutters or bolt cutters. For gates, simply cut the mesh to size and attach to a gate frame.

Versatile Uses for the DIYer and Professional

Use it to protect your garden from deer, enclose a chicken run, define a property line, or safeguard a pool area. The galvanized finish means it looks good and won't turn to rust after a few seasons. It's a practical, budget-friendly solution for many outdoor projects.
