How does Jaybro design my fence wrap?

You are free to send through any images you like as finished artwork. If you have access to a graphic designer you can find out more about print specifications for banner mesh here.

However if you’d like us to design your mesh for you, our friendly branding team can help!

Our designers are experts at putting together an eye-catching design for you so that you can get maximum return on investment. We’ll lay up your design and send you a proof, including the repetition of your design, so you can get an idea of how it will look on long stretches of mesh.

Is fence wrap the same as printed shadecloth?

Our fence wrap is a finer weave than printed shadecloth, although the term printed shadecloth is used interchangeably. Printed shadecloth is a more coarse woven material, whilst the polyester mesh used to create fence wrap is smoother with a more refined finish.

Does Jaybro print my fence wrap overseas?

No – everything is printed and finished in Sydney using our own printing presses and eyelet machines. Jaybro is your local printed fence wrap supplier with a fully kitted out production facility in Arndell Park. Our centrally located warehouses in Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide and Canberra mean that you can buy fence mesh from Jaybro and have it shipped to you quickly and without hassles.

How to install fence wrap

Once your mesh arrives at your site it’s easy to unroll and install on your site fencing or along your hoarding.

Installing your fence wrap on temporary fencing is straightforward, provided you keep in mind that tension in the fabric is what will make the mesh look its best. If your banner is allowed to sag when you are fixing it to the fence, you will lose the tension that makes it look neat and tidy.

 Here are our suggestions for getting the maximum impact from your new fence wrap.

• Ensure you have the right height mesh for your fence, with a little extra breathing space. Depending on your site, it can be good to allow for some space at the bottom so that the mesh doesn't crumple and pleat on the ground, or get caught on grass or weeds.
• Plan your installation in good weather, and when you have another person to help you.
• Unpackage the roll of mesh next to where you want to start placing it on your fence. Have your colleague support the mesh while you stretch it out across the fence bit by bit, fixing it as you go.
• Begin to tie the top edge of the mesh to the fence with cable ties. Lace the cable ties through the eyelets and through your fencing. Jaybro’s fence mesh is supplied with eyelets every metre on the top and bottom edges. This enables you to fix the mesh at regular intervals and have it hang nice and flat.
• Finish by fixing the bottom cable ties to the fence in the same manner.
• Remember your mesh could be in place for well over a year, so the fabric will naturally gain some stretch and movement after being pulled taut. Repeated strong wind exposure may also make your fabric sag, so every now and then you may like to maintain your fence mesh by adding additional cable ties or repositioning the mesh so that it looks fresh and flat.
