Installation Guides by Product Type
Different environments and storage applications come with different installation requirements. The following guides outline what to expect for each major Mesh Storage product category.
Garage Storage Cage Installation
The garage is one of the most popular environments for storage cage installation in Australia. Mesh Storage garage storage cages are designed to bolt directly to concrete slab floors and timber or masonry walls. They are compatible with the vast majority of residential and light commercial garages.
A standard garage cage installation takes between 2 and 3 hours for a single person. The process involves marking out your floor plan, assembling the cage frame, attaching mesh panels, fitting the gate, and anchoring the base to the slab.
Mesh Storage garage storage solutions are available in multiple configurations, including lockable enclosures and open-frame shelving, to suit your garage layout.
Browse Garage Storage →Apartment and Car Park Storage Cage Installation
Apartment storage cage installation involves specific considerations, as most installations happen in basement car parks that typically feature concrete slab floors, structural columns, and shared strata spaces.
Before starting any drilling or anchoring, confirm the installation is approved under your building's strata by-laws or body corporate rules.
Mesh Storage apartment storage cages are compact, modular, and designed for standard car park bay dimensions. A single cage installation in a car park is typically completed within 2–4 hours.
For Airtasker storage installation in a strata car park, ensure your Tasker is informed of any building access requirements or time restrictions before booking.
Browse Storage Cages →Wire Mesh Partition Installation
Wire mesh partitions are commonly installed in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, workshops, and commercial storage rooms. They are used to define secure zones, create equipment enclosures, and separate inventory areas within open-plan spaces.
Wire mesh panel installation follows a similar process to cage installation, but typically involves longer panel runs across larger floor areas.
For multi-panel commercial installations, two people are recommended to ensure accurate alignment across the partition length.
Mesh Storage wire mesh panels and wire mesh gates are engineered as a system: panels and gates from the same range connect directly without modification.
Browse Wire Mesh Panels → Browse Wire Mesh Gates →Mesh Fence Installation
Mesh fence installation using Mesh Storage panels is suitable for property boundaries, equipment yard perimeters, and light industrial site security.
Our mesh fencing panels are free-standing or post-mounted and do not require concrete footings in most light-duty applications.
- For post-mounted wire mesh fencing installation, posts should be set at intervals matching the panel width and secured to the substrate using the included base plates and anchor hardware.
- For outdoor applications, confirm that your selected panels are rated for external exposure prior to installation.
Over Bonnet Storage Installation
Over bonnet storage systems are wall-mounted, overhead units designed to maximise vertical space in compact garages.
Installation requires fixing the wall-mount brackets to a structurally sound wall surface. Over bonnet storage installation is generally completed within 1–2 hours. Mesh Storage over bonnet units include all mounting hardware, and load ratings are specified in the product documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does mesh storage installation take?
Most standard Mesh Storage installations are completed within 2–4 hours by a single person. Larger installations involving multiple wire mesh panels or long partition runs may take 4–6 hours and benefit from a second person.
Do I need a professional to install a storage cage?
No, all Mesh Storage products are designed for DIY self-installation without a trades licence or specialist tools. A basic power drill, spanner, and spirit level are sufficient for most installations. If you prefer professional assistance, Airtasker offers storage installation services nationally.
Can I install a wire mesh cage in an apartment car park?
Yes, in most cases. Mesh Storage apartment storage cages are designed for standard car park bay dimensions and can be anchored to concrete slab floors. Before drilling, check with your building's strata manager or body corporate to confirm installation is permitted under your strata by-laws.
How much does Airtasker storage installation cost?
Airtasker installation prices start from approximately AUD $80, depending on your location, product size, installation complexity, site access, surface type, drilling requirements, and Tasker availability. Please post your task on Airtasker and obtain quotes directly from local Taskers, as the final installation price will be based on the quote provided by your selected Tasker.
What tools do I need to install wire mesh fencing panels?
For most Mesh Storage mesh fencing installations, you will need safety gloves, a tape measure, a pencil or chalk line, a spirit level, a spanner or adjustable wrench, and a power drill or hammer drill with a drill bit suited to your floor or wall surface. Standard connectors and applicable fixings are supplied with your order.
Is Mesh Storage compatible with concrete floors?
Yes. All Mesh Storage products that require floor anchoring are designed for concrete slab installation. Masonry anchor bolts are included with your purchase. For timber or steel floors, compatible fixings are available separately.
Can I install mesh storage in a warehouse or commercial space?
Yes. Mesh Storage wire mesh panels, storage cages, and mesh gates are rated for commercial and industrial environments. They are used in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, offices, and retail fit-outs across Australia. For large commercial installations, an Airtasker installation or a coordinated site installation approach is recommended.
How is Mesh Storage different from having a cage custom-built and installed by a fencing contractor?
Traditional fencing contractors typically supply and install custom-built cages with lead times of several weeks and fixed installation costs. Mesh Storage products ship within days to anywhere in Australia, require no contractor, and can be self-installed or assembled via Airtasker at a fraction of the cost without sacrificing commercial-grade quality.
Do Mesh Storage products come with installation instructions?
Our products do not come with printed assembly guides. Installation support is available on our website through step-by-step videos, images, and written instructions. You can find these on the installation guide and the plan and install guide. If you encounter any issues during installation, our support team is available to assist.
