A natural lawn has a lot to handle. Reinforce the places that work hardest, with TR4 for dogs and backyards or GR11 for cars, parking and tougher traffic.
See the reinforcement at work in our own Turfmate reels, from the roller demonstration to grass growing into the mesh.
Watch the mesh and roller demonstration at Turfmate.

Watch our reelThe supplier catalogue gives GR11 an approximate load tolerance of 6 tonnes per axle. That is an axle load, rather than a total vehicle weight.
The same catalogue lists GR14 at approximately 8 tonnes per axle. Ground conditions, fixing, grass establishment and traffic frequency matter. Ask us to confirm the grade for heavier vehicles or frequent traffic.

A practical reinforcement layer for dog runs, well-used backyard areas and pedestrian routes. The open black mesh lets grass grow through while adding support where everyday traffic wears it down.
660 g/m² · 24mm aperture · Black · Recycled, UV-stabilised HDPE
Choose TR4 for everyday backyard wear. Ask us about persistent digging, waterlogging or poor grass growth so the underlying problem is addressed too.
A thicker green reinforcement mesh for grass parking, driveways, vehicle routes and areas that need more support against wear and rutting. Match the mesh, ground conditions and installation to the traffic.
11mm thick · 1,200 g/m² · Green · Polyethylene mesh
For cars, boats, caravans and vehicle use, tell us about the load, frequency and ground conditions before choosing your setup.

Our GR11 installation, photographed at Turfmate. Start with a mown, reasonably level, well-drained lawn. These four steps show the process; use the pinning guide for the fixing detail.
Lay the mesh over the prepared lawn and let the roll relax so it sits close to the grass. Plan the layout and use the guide for edges and joins.
Secure the mesh with U-shaped pins, following the pinning guide. Keep fixings flush with or below the mesh profile and check the edges and joins.
Use a light topdress to level shallow low spots and help the mesh sit close to the lawn. Prepare deeper depressions or drainage problems before installing.
Brush in the topdress and let the grass knit into the mesh before the planned vehicle use. Inspect fixings and keep exposed mesh and pins clear of mower blades.
Steel U-shaped pins are sold separately in packs of 50. The GR11 pinning guide suggests 50 pins for a 1m × 10m roll and at least 200 for a 2m × 20m roll. Confirm quantities for your layout and TR4 installation with us.
Roll coverage is nominal: allow for your layout, joins and trimming. For example, a 4m × 10m rectangle is 40 m² before those allowances.
Start with TR4 for dog runs, backyard routes and everyday foot traffic. Tell us about digging, shade, drainage and the condition of the grass so we can check that mesh is the right next step.
GR11 is the starting point for grass parking and vehicle traffic. Suitability depends on the ground, vehicle load, frequency of use and installation. Email us a few photos and the details before choosing a vehicle setup.
The open mesh allows natural grass to grow through and become part of the reinforced surface. Grass still needs enough light, water and routine care; mesh does not replace healthy soil or suitable drainage.
No. Pins are sold separately. Use the pinning guide and discuss your roll layout with us to work out the right fixing quantity.
Measure length × width for square metres, then sketch the roll layout. Allow for joins and trimming rather than choosing only by total area. Send the dimensions and photos if you would like a hand.
Email a few photos, your suburb, dimensions and how the area will be used. For vehicles, include the type, approximate weight and frequency of traffic.
