The vinyl is protected from degradation by UV rays. Extra tall 96" height makes it perfect for use as a deer barrier around your property. Enclose the entire property or fence off specific areas. The black color and mesh size make this fence unobtrusive and aesthetically pleasing. **Black vinyl coated welded wire, 14 gauge, 2" x 4" mesh, 96" x 100**'** - 120 lbs.** SKU: LYGHVBL9610-ECON    ### Black Vinyl Coated Deer Fence - 1" Hex Netting** ** ![deer fence black vinyl coated 1](https://www.louispage.com/Portals/10240/images//hexnet.jpg?width=134&height=250&name=hexnet.jpg) This black vinyl coated (VC) hexagonal poultry netting fence will last a long time. 1" mesh, 20 gauge core wire, galvanized before weaving (GBW) hex netting fence is dipped in a tough, flexible, thick coating of black PVC. The resulting vinyl coated hexagonal poultry netting fence is very corrosion resistant. Inhibitors in the vinyl protect it from UV degradation. The thick coating is tightly bonded to the wire and extremely resistant to cracking, chipping and weathering. Black color makes the mesh blend in with the landscape. The strong, long-lasting mesh works well as a deer barrier fence. When deer encounter a black fence, they know there is a barrier but cannot see it distinctly. When deer cannot clearly see the top of a fence to judge the distance, they are much less likely to jump. Extra tall 90" height eliminates piecing together narrower rolls. The 90" dimension is nominal. Due to the tension and heat of the coating process, actual height may be between 88" and 90". The inherent resiliency of this mesh allows the fence to give upon impact. **Black Vinyl Coated Hex, 20 gauge, 1" mesh** **        84" x 150' - 126 lbs.  - ** SKU: [HXVC184B-J ](https://shop.louispage.com/products/hex-netting-vc-20-ga-1x84x150-black-j)** ** **        ****90" x 100' - 85 lbs.   -  **SKU: HXVC190B-ECON  For other sizes of coated hex netting go to the **[hexagonal vinyl coated](https://www.louispage.com/wire-netting/hexagonal-vinyl-coated?hsLang=en)** **[![Download the Hex and Poly Deer Fence brochure!](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/10240/6dab6dad-0a84-49b9-8c8b-5ac4ba042723.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/10240/6dab6dad-0a84-49b9-8c8b-5ac4ba042723) **   ### Black Polypropylene Deer Fence** ** Heavy Duty Perimeter Fence - **C-Flex P** - from Tenax was specifically designed to be an![black polypropylene 90](https://www.louispage.com/Portals/10240/images//pefence.jpg?width=170&height=170&name=pefence.jpg) impenetrable, impact resistant fence system to protect any designated area from deer and wildlife predation. Black plastic (UV stabilized polypropylene) is extruded into a strong 1.77" x 1.97" mesh netting fence, stronger than what was originally available. Greater strength reduces the chance of breakage from deer and wildlife running into it, lowering the need for fence repairs. 7½ foot height eliminates the need for multiple overlaps, reducing labor and installation time. The black plastic fence is very unobtrusive, yet serves as an effective barrier.
