I'm always looking for easy solutions to dissuade my free-range hens from parts of my garden. And I always need multi-function support materials to hold up plants. So I thought this short fencing might prove helpful. Here's what I've found so far: - The fencing panels are heavy. They're point welded and then powder coated. If the powder coating holds up well, they shouldn't rust and the point welds should hold together. That's a plus. - The panels have pointed, but not terribly sharp soil insert points. This should make getting them into the ground relatively easy. The instructions recommend using a rubber mallet, which makes sense. Our ground is frozen solid right now, so I can't insert them yet. - Because the metal isn't flimsy, they shouldn't bend when being malleted into the ground. - The panels are the size portrayed on the product page at this time. I expect the above ground height is going to be a measly 12\" once they're hammered into place. That isn't going to do anything to stop a dog. And a chicken could fly over it. And a rabbit could hop over it or squeeze through it. However, it may prove challenging enough that they decide to go somewhere other than over the fence. - S-clips & tiny zip ties are included. The instructions are pretty bad about how to apply or remove the S-clips. And there is no information about what they expect you'd do with the zip-ties. I foresee using these formed into 3-panel triangles to help support peonies & similar plants that flop but don't get terribly tall. Decent, but remember that they won't be 17\" tall when they're hammered in.
