Maintenance Tips

• Regular Inspection: Check laced fencing and netting periodically for signs of wear, loose ties or damage, especially after high winds or storms.
• Tighten as Needed: Re-tension lacing wire where slack has developed to maintain structural integrity of the fence or mesh.
• Clean Debris: Remove vegetation, dirt or debris that may trap moisture against the wire and accelerate corrosion over time.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not use lacing wire to support excessive weight or tension beyond its intended purpose.
• Store Properly: Keep unused coils in a dry, covered area to prevent surface rust before installation.
• Use Correct Tools: Always use wire cutters or pliers designed for steel to avoid damaging the galvanised coating during cutting.
