Ultra Realistic Artificial Plants
Designer Plants Five Key Technologies
The hardware in this range is chosen for the loads and surfaces a panel wall actually puts on it: stainless steel hooks that will not bleed rust down a rendered face, UV-stabilised cable ties for mesh and balustrade, galvanised pegs for ground work, and nylon plugs sized to the 5mm masonry bit supplied beside them.
Fixings, Hooks and Care Products for a Green Wall Installation
A panel wall is only as sound as whatever holds it to the surface, and the right fixing depends entirely on what sits behind the render. This range carries the screws, plugs, cable ties, hooks, tapes and drill bits sized for green wall panels, along with the sprays and cleaners that keep a wall looking right afterwards. Pack sizes run from a 20 piece plug pack for a single panel to 100 piece kits for a full elevation. The installation guide matches each surface to the correct fixing.
Matching the fixing to the surface
Timber, plaster and drywall take a screw and washer, available in 25, 50 and 100 piece kits. Masonry and rendered brick need a 5mm by 25mm nylon plug, supplied in 20 and 100 piece packs alongside the matching 5mm masonry drill bit. Cement sheet and blueboard have a dedicated 20 piece screw pack, and wire, mesh or any surface with holes takes 25cm UV cable ties in a 100 pack.
Hanging, mounting and shaping
Stainless steel hanging hooks at 9cm by 7cm come in 10 and 50 piece packs for discs, baskets and lighter panels, with 12cm by 6cm S hooks in packs of 25 for rail and pergola positions. The 5 metre double-sided tape covers positions where drilling is not an option. Dry floral foam bricks at 23cm by 11cm by 8cm, supplied formaldehyde free in packs of 20, build arrangements up inside a planter.
Keeping an installed wall looking right
The Home Safe UV protection spray comes in 250ml and 1 litre and is applied to artificial plants and outdoor furniture as a maintenance coat. The Eco-Home Safe cleaner, in the same two sizes, lifts dust and grime off a panel face. Galvanised grass pegs and the 125cm anti-climb fence spikes complete the boundary hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fixings are needed for a timber or plaster wall?
A screw and washer through the panel backing is all that is required. The screw and washer kit comes as a 25 pack for a small area, with 50 and 100 piece screw, washer and plug kits covering timber, drywall and plaster for a larger run. The washer is the part that matters, since it spreads the load across the panel grid instead of pulling the screw head through it.
What is needed to fix green wall panels to masonry or render?
A 5mm by 25mm nylon plug and the matching 5mm masonry drill bit. Plugs are supplied in 20 piece packs for a single panel or a patch, and 100 piece packs for a full elevation. Cement sheet and blueboard are a separate case again and have their own 20 piece screw pack, because a standard masonry plug will not hold reliably in either.
How are panels attached to mesh, wire or a balustrade?
With 25cm UV cable ties, supplied in packs of 100. They thread through the panel backing grid and around the mesh or rail, so nothing is drilled and nothing is permanent. The UV grade matters outdoors, because a standard nursery tie becomes brittle and snaps after a season or two in the sun, usually at the top of the wall where it is least convenient.
Are fake plant wall installation kits and green wall installation parts the same thing?
Yes, the terms describe the same hardware. Fake plant wall kit, green wall installation parts and vertical garden fixings all refer to the screws, plugs, ties, hooks and tapes that hold panels to a surface. The one distinction worth making is between general hardware and parts sized for panels, such as the washer diameter matched to the panel backing grid and the 5mm plug matched to the drill bit supplied with it.
What does the UV protection spray do?
The Home Safe UV protection spray, in 250ml and 1 litre, is a maintenance coating applied to artificial plants and outdoor furniture after installation and periodically afterwards. It is a top-up product rather than a substitute for a UV-certified panel, since the inhibitors in a certified outdoor panel are bonded within the leaf during manufacture and cannot be sprayed on later.
How is an installed green wall cleaned?
A rinse with a hose handles most outdoor dust and pollen. Where a wall has picked up grime, cooking film or hard water marks, the Eco-Home Safe artificial plant cleaner is stocked in 250ml and 1 litre. Indoor walls in kitchens and hospitality settings generally need it more often than an outdoor fence line does.
What else is in this range beyond wall fixings?
Stainless steel hanging hooks at 9cm by 7cm in 10 and 50 piece packs, 12cm by 6cm S hooks in packs of 25, 5 metre double-sided tape for no-drill positions, dry floral foam bricks at 23cm by 11cm by 8cm supplied formaldehyde free, galvanised artificial grass pegs in 10 and 100 piece packs, and 125cm anti-climb fence spikes for boundary work.
Which parts are needed for a vertical garden compared with a hedge panel?
The fixings are the same, because both are supplied at a 1 metre by 1 metre face and both fix through a backing grid. What changes is quantity and position: a full-height vertical garden usually wants a fixing near each corner of every panel across the whole elevation, while a hedge run along an existing fence often ties into the fence rails instead, which shifts the order from screws and plugs towards cable ties.

Commercial Grade. Made for Lasting Impact.
Installers and fitout teams order fixings by the substrate rather than by the panel, and a single elevation carrying render, cement sheet and Colorbond needs three different answers on the same day.
Packs sized to the job. Screw, washer and plug kits in 25, 50 and 100 piece formats, nylon plugs in 20 and 100, and cable ties in 100 keep a site order from turning into a shelf of part-used boxes.
Substrate coverage. Timber, plaster, drywall, masonry, render, cement sheet, blueboard and mesh each have a matched fixing, with a 5mm masonry bit supplied to suit the nylon plugs rather than left to guesswork.
Handover and upkeep. UV protection spray and the plant cleaner in 250ml and 1 litre give a facilities team something concrete to inherit with the wall. A substrate question can go to 1800 617 341 before the order is placed.
