In the Ukrainian market there are many manufacturers of metal mesh for the fence. One of the most popular products of entrepreneurs in this field - chain link fence, screed and to reinforce concrete. Pricing is different: you can find hardware that differs in pricing, but cheap does not mean quality. Therefore, before buying it is mandatory to conduct a strength test, which will guarantee quality.
Let's talk about the price. The less metal is used in the manufacture - the cheaper the cost will be and, accordingly, such a characteristic as the strength of the wire will decrease with decreasing diameter of the metal. Therefore, if you expect strength from the fence - do not spare money on a grid with a thicker diameter. Experts do not recommend using a wire less than 1.6 mm, because they can not guarantee that it will withstand mechanical stress, shock, damage.
By what other criteria to correctly determine the quality of the grid?
Features:
- each spiral consists of a solid wire in the form of an elongated rhombus;
- adjacent spirals are woven without cell gaps;
- the ends of the grid are equally curved to their spiral;
- the covering is integral, without damages;
- the roll is sold in one piece in 10 meters;
- the product has a manufacturer's label with the name, characteristics, batch number, date and QR-code for feedback from the quality department;
- has documentation on guarantees in accordance with GOST;
- the roll is tightly tied with a wire with a diameter of 1.2-2.5 mm in the middle and at the edges;
- the ends of the roll are wrapped in waterproof wrapping paper;
- the appearance of the canvas is symmetrical.
To avoid feeling cheated when buying, check for the above features. The stated diameter can be checked by measuring with a caliper, which accurately determines the thickness of the welded or braided mesh.
Another method of determining compliance is weight. An unscrupulous manufacturer who intends to deceive the buyer will not say the true weight and will not allow you to check the diameter of special equipment. If the weight of the roll corresponds to the declared - then the characteristics of the material correspond to the stated in the price list. In this case, the manufacturer did not reduce the thickness of the wire and did not increase the size of the mesh size, sold a roll of the specified width and height. Otherwise, the customer may cancel the purchase.
In addition to the calculation, the personal manager is obliged to provide information of interest to the customer, so that the consumer is convinced of the quality of the purchase of goods, did not buy a cat in a bag and wanted to cooperate with the entrepreneur in the future.
We also advise you to carefully choose the manufacturer: if different stores give different weights, then choose quality, not cheapness. The West network is a certified quality guarantor with the corresponding price. But in any case, the choice is up to the customer: does he want to buy a strong chain link or be deceived by an attractive low price.
