Hi David
Horizontal bars cut from sheet????
( window blind type of thing )
You'd need to know someone with a folder, a guillotine and a spot welder

Don't use too fine a mesh as it'll restrict your airflow.
I'm using 7 or 8 horizontal tube (1/2" dia) finished in black p/coat. Should be enough to keep pets out!

David just been to do a job at a builders merchant and seen the ideal thing its an expanded ali mesh plasterers use, big sheet 6 ft by 3 ft about
£4.
Cheers,

That wouldn't be stainless, though - would it?

You can buy black plastic mesh simlar (if not the same as) the stuff Ripspeed sell for as grill material for £££ at bigger garden centre type places.
Used to stop beasties nibbling at your saplings apparently. Buy it by the metre.

I've used 8mm stainless high pressure water pipe - borrowed from work, but I've been advised that the gaps are too big so I'm
putting black painted mesh behind that, should look ok

I ended up buying some expanded ali mesh from the local boy racer emporium - it looks ideal, as it has decent sized holes and won't restrict the
airflow much at all.

No help to the UK guys, but if any US builders are interested mesh/grille materials you could try...
www.mcnichols.com
or the ubiquitous

If you prefer the woven stainless wire that you see on Jaguar R-model grilles, do a Google for Wire Cloth instead of wire mesh. There are
several US and UK companies that can supply you with that type of stuff.
Here in the US, Pegasus Racing has this:
