🔧INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 🔧
1. PREPARING YOUR SPACE 💭
The first step in installing your artificial conifer is to assess your installation area.
➡️ Choose your surface: fencing panels, balcony rails, brick walls, timber posts or trellis.
➡️ Make sure the area is clean and free from loose debris.
➡️ Measure the length and height to confirm which hedge size you need.
💚 We have the Artificial Conifer available in widths of 1m, 1.5m & 1.8m.
2. UNROLL THE CONIFER HEDGE
The hedge arrives tightly rolled for easy transport.
➡️ Place the roll on a flat surface.
➡️ Gently unroll it and allow the foliage to relax.
➡️ If installing in cold weather, let it sit for 10–15 minutes so the material softens.
💚 You’ll notice how dense the foliage is. This is what gives the hedge its realistic, full look.
3. POSITION THE HEDGE 📏
Align the hedge to ensure a straight, professional finish.
➡️ Hold the hedge against your chosen surface.
➡️ Check the top line is level before securing.
➡️ Trim any excess using scissors or garden shears.
💚 Even at this stage, you’ll see how much greener and cleaner your space looks.
4. SECURE WITH FIXINGS🧰
Cable ties or similar fixings keep the hedge firmly in place.
➡️ Use cable ties, garden wire or small screws with washers depending on your surface.
➡️ Fix every 20–30cm for best stability.
➡️ Ensure the hedge is pulled tight but not overstretched.
💚 This step determines stability, especially outdoor. Once secured, the hedge sits flush against your fence, instantly transforming the whole area.
5. SHAPE AND FINISH 💚
A few final touches make the hedge look even more natural.
➡️ Fluff and separate the foliage for a fuller appearance.
➡️ Check for any gaps and adjust fixings if needed.
➡️ Step back and ensure the hedge looks even and aligned.
💚 This final step is where the hedge really comes to life, it looks like a perfectly maintained evergreen hedge, without any of the work.
👏🏻 MAINTENANCE MADE SIMPLE👏🏻
Here's the best part, maintenance is virtually non-existent. Unlike real hedges, your artificial conifers won't need watering, pruning, or fertilizing. An occasional light dusting will keep them looking fresh and vibrant.
💚 It stays green and tidy all year, even if you forget about it! 🙂
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS⭐⬇️
➡️ For windy areas, secure the hedge more frequently along the top and bottom.
➡️ When installing on balconies, attach to both the railing and any vertical supports for extra stability.
➡️ For long runs, overlap rolls slightly to create a seamless, continuous hedge.
➡️ If using indoors (events, retail displays, studios), add a few shaping touches to enhance realism.
💚 For the most seamless finish, many customers choose two rolls and overlap them slightly.
