No dog fence wobbling?
Anonymous user 05/08/2026 - 7.58 AM
Hi everyone, I've installed a metal 'no dig' fence in my garden. Followed all instructions but it's really unsteady. It didn't come with any post spikes , just rods that you hammer into the ground. Does anyone have any ideas how to make it more secure - the only options come up with so far is buying some landscaping pegs and hooking then along the base of the fence and driving them into the ground, or using gravel glue to secure the gravel to give extra support. Any advice or ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks.

‘No dig’ fencing works best where the ground is firm and compact. If the ground is soft or loose, the support rods alone often won’t provide enough stability.
Landscaping pegs may help a little, but gravel glue won’t add any structural strength. If the fence is intended as a permanent installation, the best solution is to fit proper post spikes or concrete the posts into the ground where possible. It will provide a much more secure and long-lasting result.
