Information

Where can I install my wire trellis kit:

The system can be mounted either vertically, horizontally or diagonally onto masonry and timber surfaces.

Vertical gardens offer the advantages of increased growing area and increased accessibility.

No matter which direction you decide to go, we recommend spacing your wires equally to provide an even coverage.

Tensioned wire trellis is perfect for climbers, creepers and rambling plants such as Ivy, Roses, Clematis, Nasturtiums Honeysuckles, Wisteria and vertical vegetable gardens.

Over time with care and attention plants will grow to provide a wonderful and unique feature to any garden setting.

Mounting

Important: For a perfect fit you will need to leave no more than 30mm of thread protruding from your mounting surface.

Cross clamps are available for the addition of vertical wires (please see below).

DIY Installation

Wood and masonry mounting

Mounting Trellis Hubs

The tensioned cable trellis system is suitable for flat mounting onto either wooden posts or masonry wall surfaces using the mounting screws supplied.

Note : when mounting onto solid masonry surfaces (not mortar) please drill a 12mm hole and insert a grey 10mm x 50mm plastic wall plug before fastening. If a wall is particularly brittle or old - a chemical resin may be applied to further strengthen the hold.

An overview of DIY installation tips and advice.

1. Getting Started

It is a good idea to layout your design onto the relevant surface with a pen or chalk prior to drilling any holes, taking factors such as brick spacing into consideration.

Layout your project

2. Drill Pilot Holes

The dual thread pin allows direct installation into hardwood timber (such as oak) or if combined with the correct rawl plug it is attachable to almost any masonry surface. We recommend a 6mm or 7mm drill piece for wood installation or a 12mm if using a grey 10mm x 50mm plug on solid brick (not mortar) to reduce the chance of cracking).

Drill pilot holes

3. Insert Screw Fixing

Screw the dual thread screws in to place using a hex head key.

Ensure you leave no more than 30mm of thread protruding.

Use a hex head key to attach the dual thread screws

4. Attach Hubs

Screw the surface mounting hubs onto the dual thread screws. Perfect alignment of the cross hole can be achieved by simply turning the adjustable base plate of your hub in or out, to ensure a secure and rigid fixing.

Screw hubs on to dual thread screws

5. Attach Fixed Cable End

Thread your wire through the first hub, so that the fixed wire end can be secured - using a stainless steel nut (supplied). Remember to leave only a small amount of thread, so that as you tension the wire, more thread will be revealed to provide thread for the dome end nut.

Attach the fixed cable end through first hub

6. Measure Your Wire

Place the DIY stud end in place through the other hub. Now simply tension the cable by pulling and align to the spanner flat of the DIY compression fitting. Mark your wire ready for cutting with either a pen or chalk.

Measure and mark your wire ready for cutting

Adding Vertical Wire To Your Trellis System

It is possible to add vertical wires to horizontal tensioned wire trellis (see pic above) by using wire cross clamps to hold the vertical wire in place.

Quick and easy to add to any new or existing wire trellis system, simply choose the clamp size to suit your wire diameter. View our full range of Cross Clamps.

We recommend using 4mm Wire Rope Cross Clamp for 90 degree cross over of wires.
