Having at least a small land plot, it’s so difficult to resist planting something that will later grow and bear fruit. Summer residents know the wonderful feeling when you cut a salad from vegetables grown with your own hands, and make jam from freshly picked strawberries! Even if small, there were, are and will be garden beds on the plot. Usually the owner does not think too much about the design of the plantings, so the fences for the beds are made from available material, and they look simple. However, who doesn’t want to make the site beautiful and well-groomed? In addition, useful edges help the beds keep their shape, save water, and prevent the growth of weeds.
The edges around the perimeter of the beds give them a neat and civilized appearance. Convenient when seating areas various plants demarcated. There is order everywhere, which does not need to be restored “from scratch” after every heavy rain. You can simply maintain it, spending a minimum of effort on care, watering, etc. Fences are usually made from leftover building materials.
Boards as fencing can be called a classic, often found option. Depending on the amount that the owner of the site intends to spend on resolving this issue, timber and picket fence, clapboard or slab can be used. The use of any wood will be appropriate. Even the branches left after pruning trees will find use.
For some time, such a fence will look very elegant. In the future, the wood may turn black and even become covered with fungus. Trying to whitewash the sides is ineffective because the whitewash will quickly be washed away by rain. The situation is even worse with paint: it cracks and peels off. It won’t even be able to solve the problem radically. After a few years, the dull sides will have to be replaced, because soil begins to spill out through the cracks formed.
Neat wooden sides give the beds a well-groomed and attractive look. In this case, a wide variety of wood can be used: wattle from cut hazel branches looks very good and is inexpensive
Diagonal bricks were once in vogue. At one time, even city flower beds were edged this way. If you try, the teeth of the border will look neat and uniform. Such a fence can be whitewashed or even painted. AND garden paths, and the flower beds will receive reliable but expensive borders. After all old brick will not make the desired impression, and a new one can cost a decent amount.
Bricks can be installed not only diagonally, but also laid out in rows, the height of which depends on the parameters of the bed or flowerbed that is to be fenced
Slate is now used less and less for its intended purpose - as roofing material. If pieces of it remain after changing the covering, then they can be used for edging the beds. At one time, it was actively and widely used for these purposes too.
If anyone else is planning to throw it away old slate or put it in a barn for eternal storage, then let him admire these wonderful beds. After all, you can build such beauty yourself for practically nothing.
A slate edge will look neat if you simply press it into the ground so that the above-ground part rises to the same height along the entire perimeter. Slate can be broken into plates of the desired width. Covered with a layer of paint, it will even look elegant. The only negative is that thin slate will need to be kept under control and, in case of distortions after heavy rains, corrected.
Not only pieces of flat slate, but also various cobblestones look very impressive as a side. Of course, this is not a brick with a given shape once and for all. Here you will have to try, selecting stones according to size, combining them with each other and fastening them with cement mortar. But the result will be very impressive. This is a very aesthetic and, at the same time, durable fencing. The only drawback of this fence is that the heavy side can begin to settle into the ground under its own weight. Therefore, you also need to monitor his condition.
You will have to work hard with natural stone, but now you will see such beauty every day: the aesthetic pleasure is incomparable
These materials are truly traditional, we are used to seeing them on personal plots. But time does not stand still. New products appear, and old materials, whose price was unreasonably high, become more affordable. Let's look at modern fencing options.
Plastic withstands seasonal temperature changes well, it is not hygroscopic and is not affected by precipitation.
The plastic fence is easy to install, easy to remove and replace. Such a fence, taking into account its affordability, can be considered ideal for small beds or flower beds. Plastic fences for beds of various shapes are good because they can fully correspond to the design of the site chosen by the owner. Sides can be selected according to color scheme and in height.
Plastic is not hygroscopic, it almost does not react to natural phenomena, does not rot and does not burn. At the same time, it can look whatever its owner wants
If the gardener desires, you can choose a border that imitates wood, brick or even natural stone. Both sectional and continuous fencing look great. Thanks to the legs, these fences can be easily fixed to the ground. There are also those for the installation of which special nails are used.
The most affordable border tape for garden beds is a tape-type fence with a corrugated surface, green or brown in color.
The advantages of curb tape are obvious:
To install such a fence, you need a minimum of tools: a large stapler, scissors, a tape measure and a dustpan. The entire fencing process will not take much time. You should dig around the selected area, using a shovel to make a trench around its perimeter. We measure the required size of the tape and fasten its ends with a stapler. We place the fence in the trench at the selected depth, after which we fill the lower part of the tape with earth and compact it well.
A nice and laconic fencing made from border tape can be installed literally within an hour, and it will serve you for more than one season
If the curb length is significant, it is necessary to fix the position of the tape with pegs, which are alternately placed in front of the tape and behind it at an equal distance from each other.
Rubber curbs are laid using the same principle. Only for high beds such a side will not be suitable, because it is placed very low. Polycarbonate is also used as a material for fencing, the trimmings of which remain, for example, after making a canopy or building a greenhouse. But polycarbonate fencing for garden beds is rarely used, since it is not profitable to purchase material specifically for this purpose, and there is never a lot of scraps.
The rubber border is almost invisible, but it helps to give certain areas of the garden clear outlines, creates a kind of order, and properly organizes the space
If you have to fence a lot of beds with plastic, the costs will inevitably increase. This is where people's ingenuity comes to the rescue. You can make a fencing for garden beds with your own hands, for example. That's when the plastic bottles we've accumulated come in handy!
The use of plastic bottles for fencing garden beds is a real triumph of universal justice. It’s not in vain that you have accumulated them at home: you don’t seem to need them, but it’s a pity to throw them away
You need to select bottles of the same volume; you can fill them with sand and place them upside down in the same trench that we prepared for the curb. If you cover the plastic water-based paint, you will get a very bright border. However, it also looks good without paint.
Metal fences, often used for garden beds, look easy to install and, at first glance, very reliable. If we take the remains for this purpose plain metal, up to 1 mm thick, then the border will really turn out quickly, but it will not be so easy to make: thin plates are unstable and can be cut. And this side will not last long, because metal in the soil quickly rusts, and such a thin one will turn into dust very quickly. In the summer heat, metal overheated in the sun will actively transfer heat to the soil, which has a detrimental effect on plants.
The polymer coating gives galvanized steel completely new properties. It looks even more attractive and does not get too hot in the sun
Much more aesthetically pleasing and promising is galvanized steel, which has polymer coating. Boxes made from this material have a neat and attractive appearance. This material has proven itself in various climatic conditions. Lightweight plates allow you to easily change the shape and size of the structure. The only, but expected, drawback for such material is its price. The expensive material is still in short supply, as demand for it outstrips supply.
More fencing ideas are presented in the video.
This neat and compact design when disassembled is made of galvanized metal. The finished box is easy to assemble and disassemble. If it is necessary to increase the size, the sides can be increased. The height of a single-tier border is 17cm. Stiffening ribs on the fencing elements give it additional strength. Manufacturers claim that such curbs will last at least 20 years.
Not everyone likes coming to the dacha to do physical labor. But such beds, even in an office worker tired of paperwork, can cause a surge of work enthusiasm
If it seems to you that the beds can be used without fencing, then you are, of course, right. But those who use borders have already seen how much easier and more effective plant care has become. And the end result of your efforts – the harvest – will help you finally believe in their necessity.
IN Lately Raised beds are becoming increasingly popular among gardeners and gardeners - original technology, which came to us from Canada. Although, in fairness, it should be noted that such structures used to be found everywhere. They were called manure beds and cucumbers were grown there.
A high, or raised, bed is a box-shaped structure with a height of 0.15–0.2 m to 0.5–0.6 m and a width of 0.5–1.2 m. Its length is limited only by the dimensions of the site. But these sizes can vary in any direction depending on the desires and needs of the owner. A nutrient substrate is placed inside the box and plants are planted.
Do-it-yourself raised beds can become the highlight of garden design
It is best to prepare the bed in advance in the fall so that the soil has time to settle and compact. In addition, in the spring there is no need to waste precious time on this, and with the arrival of warmth, the soil will warm up very quickly and sowing can be done 2-3 weeks earlier.
The sides holding the ground are made from the most different materials and improvised means:
A bed of horizontal logs can be made very quickly A bed of vertical logs will require the application of great forces Such beds can also be made from wood High beds are most often made from boards Gravel in a mesh frame looks very unusual Often high beds are made from cinder blocks The fencing can be straw The mesh frame can be filled with any decorative material Even mesh ones are used plastic containers A garden bed can be made from flat slate(OSB)
In some cases, high ridges may not have a side fence at all and are simply earthen hills.
Raised beds are also available without fencing
For the manufacture of frame structure You will need support bars and boards for the walls from wood.
Wooden boxes for high beds can be tinted in any color and coated with paint
The work is carried out as follows:
Stone structures are built to last for centuries, they look monumental, but it is extremely difficult to move them to another place.
A high bed made of stone or brick will fit well into a classic design
The work technology consists of the following stages:
Complex masonry work is best left to professionals
A brick bed is built by analogy with a stone one.
To build a frame structure, any pieces of old slate or metal removed from the roof will be used.
A bed whose walls are made of sheet metal can have very different shapes
The sequence of actions is as follows:
Slate sheets are cut to the required size
First, dig a trench
Slate sheets are connected using ordinary wire
To give greater rigidity, stakes are driven into the corners, to which a wooden frame made of bars is attached.
One of my good friends makes the sides of her beds from 1.5 liter plastic bottles. She digs them in around the perimeter with their necks down, trying to press them closer together. Frames intended for different crops are painted from spray cans in various colors. It turns out very lively and unusual.
A raised bed can be built from empty plastic bottles
The branch structure is constructed as follows:
Plastic containers can be placed inside the wicker box
You can simply stick several rows of branches into the ground and secure them with wire.
Branches in the wall of the bed can be placed vertically
After installing the frame, the bed needs to be filled correctly:
Cardboard will prevent weeds from growing
Then thick branches, logs, branches, etc. are laid
Fences for raised beds can be found commercially. They are prefabricated modular structures, most often made of plastic. But it’s not difficult to build such a box with your own hands.
Do you know what innovation is, how raised beds came to our country from Canada. The land there has been cultivated in this way for many years. These planting options can be used not only for growing vegetable crops, but also to create original ones. Let's find out how to make beautiful and practical raised garden beds with your own hands. Photo, description technological processes and the diagrams will help you with this.
The rate of gas exchange, soil moisture and the presence of beneficial microorganisms depend on the size and shape of the beds. All these parameters affect the quality of the soil.
Raised beds can be used to grow big harvest berries, vegetables and fruits. At the same time, you can get good results even from a piece of land that is not fertile. The peculiarity of high beds is that they warm up faster than low structures.
There are several types of vertical beds. They differ not only in material, but also in functionality. Some options are made from building materials, while others are made from simple ones.
Here are the types of beds that exist:
When creating isolated beds, you can take into account factors such as lighting, soil composition, and its structure. At what height such beds will be placed depends on the volume of the root system, soil characteristics and your own preferences. Minimum height– 15 cm, but to provide better insulation, you can raise them by 30-40 cm. Warm raised plantings can be higher than 50 cm, since a layer is still laid on the bottom. Narrow beds can be up to half your height.
The length can be very varied. Most often it depends on the length of the garden. If the bed is too long, then its sides need to be further strengthened. When arranging any garden bed, remember your own comfort and convenience. Best width when you can reach the middle of the structure. The optimal value is 90-120 cm.
You can grow different crops in raised beds. It is not recommended to use plants with tall stems, as they will be inconvenient to collect fruits from. Root crops, strawberries, peppers, herbs and cucumbers are often planted on bulk structures.
For your information! Raised bed filler is particularly useful. It is made from organic ingredients. Wherein root system located in the fertile layer, which promotes the development and growth of plants.

Let's find out how to make original beds and what materials they can be built from. Interesting ideas Our review will help you create a variety of designs.
The main advantage of raised beds is that you can accommodate a variety of vegetables and plants in a small area. Raised beds are especially popular for strawberries, aromatic herbs and cucumbers. Such designs also have other advantages:
Such designs also have certain disadvantages, but there are not many of them. First of all, you will need fertilizing mineral fertilizers. It is also important to monitor the mole cricket invasion.
For your information! Before you start work, treat the wood parts with an antiseptic and special impregnations. This will prevent rotting processes and protect materials from destruction.
You can also create warm raised beds or vertical structures. They are popular because of their appearance and cost savings. usable area. In addition, this is an excellent solution for protecting crops from various pests. Vertical structures are great for growing flowers, strawberries and herbs. You can not only make such structures from available materials, but even purchase ready-made options. You can see how to make warm structures in the video:
You can see different variants design of vertical beds, but their most important advantage is their miniature dimensions. Such structures can be built from any materials, even from plastic bottles.
Vertical products do not require special care. They are on optimal height, in order to process them conveniently.
You can see how to make a raised structure for strawberries in the video: To increase the rigidity of the pyramidal bed, you need to install an additional post as a supporting element. In this case, the boards are mounted on a horizontal surface and attached to each other. A rail is installed in the base. The resulting side is fixed vertically, and then the second and third sides are attached to it. After installation frame system The length of the slats is measured. They are placed at intervals of 25-30 cm. To make the shelf raised, its ends should be cut at an angle of 30 degrees. After assembly, the structure is filled with soil, which is compacted.
To grow strawberries, you can build a vertical bed from. In this case, you need to prepare plastic pipes, steel rope and a special knife for cutting. The volumetric section allows you to place the required amount of soil inside. The cut should be made along the structure. To fix the bed in a horizontal position, you need to make a hole in each half. Then a fishing line or cable is pulled through them. The parts are then placed one on top of the other. In this case, you can make different levels of beds from pvc pipes with your own hands.
For your information! If you plan to place the structures in a suspended state, then you need to take into account that they can sway. Therefore, it is better to install them in places that are well protected from the wind.
A compact structure can be built for crops such as strawberries, greens, flowers or potatoes. A good solution would be a vertical bed. To do this you need to prepare metal mesh, straw, special soil and necessary tool for processing the material.
To create a bed you need to bend the mesh into a pipe. In this case, the cross-section should be 0.9 meters. The edges are secured with wire. Straw is laid on the sides, and the free space is filled.
To plant potatoes, such beds should be placed at a height of 50 cm from the surface level. Gaps of 10 cm are left between plants. Then the first layer should be shed, then the soil should be laid and the seedlings should be planted.
To grow strawberries, you can also use ordinary ones. Such designs allow you to create an attractive external design. You can use both plastic and clay pots. In this way, you can create a multi-level composition.
Pots need to be selected so that their diameters become smaller towards the top of the structure. In this case, the difference between pairs of pots should differ little.
The largest pot is placed in the chosen location and filled with soil. After this, a smaller pot is placed in it, etc. When the structure is ready, plants are planted in the soil and watered. The largest pot is installed at the base of the structure. A rod of a smaller size than the diameter of the container is placed inside. The pot is filled with soil, and the remaining products are strung on rods one by one. After filling with soil, plants are planted. The pots are mounted on a pole or high stump.
Exist different ways growing cucumbers in open ground. In this case it is possible to build vertical beds. This option is also suitable for planting strawberries.
The tire structure is mounted according to the same principle as pot structures. Tires are suitable for this different sections.But keep in mind that old products are not particularly environmentally friendly material.
Before mounting, tires should be cleaned, dried and, if necessary, painted. The largest tire is placed down, and a part is cut off from the side. The hole is filled with soil and planted with plants. In this way, other elements are also laid out. Tires can be beautifully decorated with patterns or even unusual cuts.

Traditional cultivation of the land requires a lot of time and physical strength, and the harvest does not always correspond to what was expected. That is why more and more gardeners are setting up high beds on their plots, allowing them to special effort receive annually excellent harvest vegetables Anyone can make raised beds with their own hands, because this does not require special skills or special equipment.
Compared to conventional beds, bulk beds have many more advantages:
In addition, a vegetable garden made from raised beds can be very decorative, so you can plant it next to your house.
A high bed is a frame of certain dimensions, inner space which is filled with soil, compost and fertilizers. Most often the frame is made rectangular shape, and it is assembled from boards, slate, branches, plastic and other materials.
Wood is the most affordable, easy to install and environmentally friendly material. To assemble the beds, boards, timber, small logs. Disadvantages: wood requires wood, quickly darkens and loses its attractiveness, and is short-lived.
Vine and twigs - inexpensive and original solution. Wicker walls look very attractive; you can give the bed any shape. Disadvantages: weaving vines requires skills; the service life of such a frame is very short.
Stone and brick are an option for areas with classical architecture. Very reliable and durable material, gives the beds decorative look. Flaws: high price, creating a bed will take more time and is difficult to dismantle.
Plastic – great alternative tree. Sheet plastic easy to install and disassemble, it is quite durable, has an attractive appearance, very durable and relatively inexpensive. Disadvantages: certain types of plastic contain harmful substances, so they are not suitable for the garden. Ecologically safe material has a corresponding certificate, which must be presented upon purchase.
Metal is a convenient and durable material, ideal for shaped beds. If necessary, moving the metal frame will not be difficult, as will dismantling it. The appearance of the metal walls is neat; they can be painted in any color or decorated with ornaments. Disadvantages: welding skills are required to assemble a metal curb, the price of sheet metal is quite high, and high-quality surface treatment is required to protect against corrosion.
– an excellent solution for multi-tiered beds or arranging a vegetable garden on a slope. The walls can be made monolithic or assembled from separate ones. concrete surface easy to decorate, it is extremely strong, durable, and has a neat appearance. Disadvantages: lengthy installation process, high cost of materials, Additional requirements to the installation of a drainage system.
Decorating beds with slate is a completely budget-friendly and simple option. The walls can be installed very quickly, this material lasts a long time, and for decorative purposes the slate can be painted in any color. The main disadvantage is the fragility of the material, so it should be handled with care during installation.
Each gardener selects the size and shape of the bulk bed at his own discretion. And yet, there are optimal parameters, at which the bed will be most effective:
If the bed will be poured onto fertile soil, it is made 15-20 cm high. This is quite enough for good harvest. If the soil on the site is not suitable for farming, the bed is raised to 30 cm. Compost beds are made even higher - up to 0.5 m. Sometimes the walls are raised very high, which allows you not to bend over while cultivating the soil and planting plants, but this increases material consumption and requires more time to arrange a garden. In addition, with a large frame width, it is inconvenient to cultivate the soil at such a height.
The width of the bed should be sufficient for two rows of plants. With this planting, all plants will receive the same volume of air and sunlight, which has a very positive effect on productivity. Large quantity rows leads to the fact that the average plants receive less air, are shaded, stretched upward, and the yield decreases. Cultivate the bed standard width is also much easier than being too wide.
The length of the bulk bed does not play a special role, therefore it is limited only by the size of the plot. The most common option is beds with a length of 1.5 to 3 m; They are compact and look neat in the garden.
For example, a bed with a fence made of boards is taken; This option is the most convenient and inexpensive.
During the work you will need:
The boards are cut to the size of the frame, after which they are coated on all sides with antiseptic impregnation. You can use used oil for these purposes, and to prevent harmful substances from penetrating into the soil, after treatment it is recommended to cover the tree with film on one side. The lower edges of the boards, which will be in contact with the ground, are treated especially carefully. The timber is sawn into pieces 50 cm long and also impregnated protective agent. After that construction material laid out to dry.
The area for the garden bed should be illuminated by the sun for at least 5 hours a day. Mark the boundaries of the bed, remove stones and branches, dig perennials. If desired, you can dig up the soil together with fine grass - this will increase the permeability of the soil. If the soil is very dense and trampled, it is enough to remove the layer of turf around the perimeter of the marking to a small depth to make it easier to position the frame.
The dried boards are knocked down in pairs into panels and connected to each other using bars. The height of the shields is equal to the height of the bed, the long sides of the frame are additionally reinforced with transverse bars in the center. Since the length of the bars is greater than the height of the walls, they should protrude 10 cm above the frame. These will be the legs of the frame. To improve the appearance of the structure, boards laid flat, the edges of which are cut at an angle of 45 degrees, are placed around the perimeter of the frame. Finally, the frame can be painted with outside.
The finished frame is transferred to the installation site; align the structure according to the markings, make recesses for the legs, check the location of the bed building level. If necessary, place pegs or, conversely, remove excess soil. The structure should be as level as possible, with all corners at the same level. Finally, add soil around the perimeter of the walls and compact it so that there are no gaps left.
First the bottom is closed construction mesh and nail it along the edges to the walls of the frame. The mesh will protect the structure from the penetration of moles and mice. Then geotextiles are laid, which will not allow weeds to grow. Next, the beds are filled in layers:
The thickness of each layer is 10 cm. There is no need to mix the layers, but it is necessary to level and compact well. If the soil on the site is not of very good quality, it is better to use purchased soil. After filling, the bed is well watered and left for a couple of days. During this time, the layers will settle a little and become denser. It is recommended to cover the frame with black agrofibre, which provides better soil heating and prevents weeds from germinating.
It is recommended to make high beds in the fall or at the end of summer, so that the layers are well rotted and the roots of the plants get the maximum useful substances. If the beds are installed in the spring, it is necessary to fill them at least a month before planting and pour plenty of water several times to compact them. It is easy to turn such a structure into a greenhouse: to do this, plastic or metal arcs are installed above the frame, the ends of which are secured to the walls with bolts. A polyethylene film or special agrofibre is attached to the arches on top.
Construction boards
To create bulk beds, you can use both flat and wavy slate. The technology for installing beds using this method is very simple and anyone can do it.
Table. Wave slate
To work you will need:
In the selected area, the boundaries of the beds are marked and beacons are installed. Narrow grooves are dug along the perimeter to the depth of a bayonet. If the soil is good, then remove all fertile layer inside the markings, pouring it close to the future beds.
Slate sheets are laid on flat surface, measure the required length and draw a chalk line across the waves. After this, the slate is cut along the lines using a grinder. The pegs are soaked bitumen mastic or waste oil, and if scraps of metal rods are used as racks, they are treated with anti-corrosion compounds.
The first sheet of slate is installed vertically in the groove from the corner of the marking. Next, place the next sheet with an overlap in one wave, level it, and beat it on top with a rubber hammer so that both sheets are at the same height. Check the location of the upper edge of the slate with a building level; if necessary, add or remove soil from below. The walls are reinforced with metal rods or pegs, which are driven in on both sides to a depth of 0.5 m. So, all the sheets of the frame are placed one by one, the trench is filled up and the horizontal level is checked again. After this, the soil near the walls is compacted and the excess is removed.
At the very bottom you can put old newspapers, cardboard, pieces of wallpaper, the next layer is chopped brushwood, tree bark, sawdust. After this, small shavings are poured in, plant waste, peat or compost are laid. And all this is sprinkled on top with the soil that was taken out at the very beginning. Apply plenty of water to the bed to wet all layers and leave for several days. When the bed is compacted, you can begin planting.
When the plants sprout, the plantings should be well watered and mulched. Weeds that break through the mulch layer are immediately removed. After harvesting, the surface is loosened and sown with green manure. Before the onset of cold weather, all vegetation is mowed down, leveled on the bed, covered with a layer of earth on top and covered with black film for the winter. Periodically it is necessary to inspect the walls of the frame, replace or repair individual sections.
The soil between the beds is most often filled with fine crushed stone, gravel, straw, sometimes sowed lawn grass. In such conditions, the garden always remains well-groomed, weeds do not grow, and dirt does not stick to shoes. If desired, you can use tiles and bricks, or pour concrete.

Dividing the plantation into plots and their subsequent fencing will help make the garden more well-groomed and attractive. For this, special blanks and various available materials are used - old slate, plastic bottles, bricks, natural stones.
Dividing the plantation into mini-plots is not only practical, but also aesthetically pleasing. Fences for garden beds have the following advantages:
To fence plots, do not choose materials that are very hot in the sun, otherwise the earth will dry out. Decide what you will grow in the garden beds. For flowers, choose more attractive, original fences, for vegetables - focusing on the characteristics of their cultivation (some need high fences, others need low ones). In addition, garden fences should be:
The dimensions of the beds must meet the following requirements:
If you don’t have the material at hand, purchase blanks or kits for arranging beds. Durable fences are made from galvanized metal, CSP (cement particle boards). Less rigid and stable fences made of flexible plastic tapes.
Fence your garden with galvanized sheets. Their height and length depend on the parameters of the future bed. You can create rectangular, square, corner plots. The price for a sheet with parameters 0.45x1250x2500 is about 1000 rubles. The characteristics of the material are as follows:
During installation, a box is created from 4 metal strips, which are fastened with special clamps. Fence a rectangular or square bed like this:
For work, use DSP panels - cement bonded particle boards. The fence will look solid. The strength of the slabs is superior to slate. The material is sold in different parameters. Price per DSP board 20x247x1250 mm – about 90 rub. Durability and strength are the main qualities of a fence.
Its other features:
The fence for the beds is created as follows:
You can fence off the beds with flexible plastic border tape. It is sold in rolls and varies in thickness, length, width, and color. The width of the material is 10–50 cm, length up to 50 m (packages of 10 m are often found). The kits are sold with pegs to strengthen the fence. There are corrugated, flat border tapes. The price for material with parameters 10x900 cm is about 400 rubles.
Flexible plastic is used:
