Dog Proof Wall Covering

Installation

When installing with a chain link or wire fence:

• Start by cutting the liner to fit your area
• Choose and end to start with and drill 2 holes in the liner greater than the width of the wire you are attaching it to and at least one inch from the edge. (This can be reinforced with grommets if needed)
• Insert a zip tie from the backside of the wire and loop it through the hole and then back through and secure it on the backside every 12"
• Then repeat the same on the bottom and around the entire wall every 12”
• Once completed use flush cuts to cut off the excess zip ties and remove any sharp edges

When installing on a solid wall:

• Start by cutting the liner to fit your area
• Choose one side to start on and screw to the wall using a roofing screw so it has the waterproofing shank attached to it
• Screws should be installed top screw, and then bottom screw all the way around the wall every 6" to 12" to help minimize any bubbling
• In corners where there is a seam (if applicable) it is best to use a waterproofing tape or mastic underneath the barrier and on top of it as well to prevent any water or urine intrusion

Cleaning as needed using warm water and a drop of dish soap if needed. A cotton or microfiber towels works best.

Connecting HDPE Pieces

There are two ways to connect multiple pieces of HDPE together. One method is to overlap the HDPE and use our double sided seam tape to connect the two pieces. The other method is to butt the ends together and use our 17 mil single sided seam tape to create a solid connection.

Overlap Method
(for underground installations)

The overlap method is best used when connecting two pieces of HDPE in a buried application. Due to the overlap, a ridge is exposed which is not ideal when installed in exposed vertical or flat installations in high traffic areas as there is a possibility of an object catching on the ridge and pulling the two pieces apart.

In a below ground installation, the large overlap area provides a more water resistant connection as well as enhanced protection against tree and plant root intrusion.

End to End Method
(for exposed installations)

When installing HDPE on a wall, floor or anywhere that is exposed, the end to end method provides a secure connection and does not leave any ridges exposed to potential catching by a person or object.

Shipping

• Ships Free (standard ground, see map)
• Expedited shipping only available on orders over $2,000

Shipping estimates shown on the map pertain to this specific product only. HDPE orders typically ship same day if the order is placed before 12:00 noon CST. Transit times displayed in the map are listed in business days, and are approximate. Transit times are subject to stock levels at regional warehouses. The day that the order is shipped is not counted as a transit day.

Thickness comparison

The below is a thickness comparison of the material. HDPE plastic thickness is measured in "mils" which is "thousands of an inch".

High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE): About the Material

High-density polyethylene, otherwise known as HDPE, is a natural gas thermoplastic that's very popular due to its resistance to corrosion and impact as well as its incredible tensile strength. HDPE's characteristics are perfect for piping applications including pressure and non-pressure pipes, conduits, and excellent drainage abilities.

Its Flexibility

HDPE will remain solid and rigid until it reaches its melting point then it can be molded into any shape. Due to its flexibility, HDPE can be molded into anything from storage containers to playground equipment.

HDPE Is Recyclable

HDPE is one of the easiest products to recycle making it perfect for companies to save on costs while protecting the environment.

Recycling makes it less expensive to produce plastic, minimizes the production of plastic, and allows companies to market their products as sustainable which is good for many consumers. HDPE can withstand weather conditions such as rain and environmental conditions including chemicals, solvents, and acids.

Irrigation And Agriculture Piping

Powerful acids and bases can happen naturally in soil making HDPE pipes an important option for underground piping. HDPE material is excellent for pipes in a large range of settings.

HDPE piping offers irrigation for gardens, farms, and other applications. Other applications include intake and delivery pipes for flood irrigation and sprinklers for crops, lawns, gardens, and golf courses. For nurseries and orchards that need drip irrigation, HDPE piping is not only lightweight but very strong.

Telecommunication And Electrical Cables

HDPE piping offers secure protection for telecommunication and electrical cables because HDPE is resistant to water and other environmental issues. This outstanding material will prevent cables from malfunctioning caused by damage.

For Drainage Pipes

HDPE piping will drain surface water, subsoil water, and rainwater because it's strong and can resist corrosion. HDPE works perfectly for both drainage and water waste mains.

Distribution And Gas Mains

Polyethylene pipes are the chosen remedy for the transportation and distribution of natural gas to customers. Some of the leading reasons include its leak-free joining system, flexibility, strength, and inexpensive price tag.
