What Are Artificial Hedges and Why They’re Useful

Artificial hedges are made from high-quality synthetic materials, and carefully designed to mirror the details of real plants, from leaf textures to branch structures,, offering a practical way to incorporate greenery into a setting without the complexities of upkeep.

Why consider them?

Artificial hedges provide a consistent, vibrant look throughout the year, without the need for watering, trimming, or handling seasonal changes. They maintain their lush appearance effortlessly.

Beyond aesthetics, installing faux hedges on your fence can enhance privacy and improve outdoor settings. With various shapes and sizes available, customization is easy to fit specific needs. Unlike live hedges that may grow out of control, artificial hedges retain their form for years, making them a convenient, long-lasting solution.

Make Preparations before Installing Artificial Hedges

Before ordering your artificial hedge panels, there are a few steps to take.

First, measure the surface you plan to cover. Calculate the number of panels needed for full coverage. Artificial hedges come in various sizes and can be trimmed or connected as required. If the surface is smaller than the panel, simply trim the excess for a precise fit.

Next, order the required number of panels and prepare your tools, such as measuring tapes, zip ties, scissors, hammers, drills, and screws. The specific tools will depend on the type of surface being covered.

Ensure the panels have an easy snap-lock system for interlocking without additional tools. As shown in the image, all EdenVert artificial hedge panels can be easily separated and reattached to form almost any size you want.

Once everything is prepared, refer to the installation guide for detailed steps on setting up your artificial hedge wall.

How to Install Artificial Hedges on a Metal / Color Bond Fence?

If it is a metal fence, you need to do some extra work first, but the work is not complicated. In order to safely install an artificial fence on a metal fence, you need to install a wooden beam every 40 cm.

Most metal fences are corrugated, so make sure your artificial fence board is not flush with the fence, because it will make your fence wavy and lose a lot of realism. Therefore, in the planning stage, you must consider installing wooden beam.

The tools required have also changed. In this case, wooden beam, drill bits and screws and washers are required. Connect the wooden beam to the metal fence. This can be achieved by tightening or connecting them at the top and bottom of each beam.

Remember, you want your wooden beams to be placed at a distance of about 40 cm to ensure that your artificial hedge panel is appropriate. The beam can be fixed vertically to the top and bottom metal fence with screws, and then the wooden beam can be placed horizontally between the vertical beams and connected to the metal fence.

Once you connect your wooden beams to your metal fence, it’s time to get your artificial fence ready for installation. Separate the panels or cut them using a pair of sharp scissors. Our secure connection system allows you to securely and easily clip the entire panel together in a few minutes. Now it’s time to hang your artificial fence on your metal fence.

Trimming is the last step. Simply use scissors to trim the excess lengths of the plastic ties until they fit perfectly.

How to Install Artificial Hedges on a Wire Fence?

Connecting artificial hedges to a barbed wire or mesh fence may seem a difficult task, but in fact this is one of the easiest ways to install artificial hedge panels. As with other installations, you must first accurately measure how many hedges are needed.

In some cases, you may need to trim or reshape the panels to fit the shape or size of the fence. To do this, you only need to use a pair of sharp scissors to cut the artificial fence to the exact size you need.

How to Install Artificial Hedges on Brick, Concrete, or Stone Walls

Installing synthetic boxwood hedges on brick, concrete, or stone walls can be challenging but achievable. Begin by measuring the area you want to cover. Ensure accurate measurements of the wall or space, and if you’re incorporating a design, sketch it out beforehand to assist with precise measuring.

Once you’ve measured and received your hedge panels, you can customize them to fit your space. The panels can be trimmed and reassembled to match the shape and size you need. Each panel comes with interlocking snaps for secure attachment. If trimming was necessary, use zip ties to reassemble the panels to the desired size.

With the measuring and customization complete, it’s time to start the installation. Attach a wire grid to your wall using screws and anchors or nails. First, mark where the grid will be placed and drill holes for the screws. While concrete nails can be used, screws with anchors offer better long-term stability.
