    摘要: A trimmer line shield for preventing the line of a grass trimmer from striking and becoming entangled in the bottom portion of a chain link fence is formed of an elongated stiff plastic extrusion having a longitudinally extending vertical main body of generally T-shaped transverse cross section, a tapered bottom end, a pair of longitudinally extending stop flanges disposed a distance above the tapered bottom end extending laterally outward beyond each side of the main body, and a longitudinally extending flat top portion that extends a distance laterally outward beyond each side of the main body for engaging the bottom of the fence. The shield is driven into the ground to extend between vertical fence posts and the fence is installed between the posts with its bottom end engaging the flat top portion a distance above the ground surface which also inhibits growth of vegetation into the open spaces between the wire members.

    摘要: An edging and vegetation guard assembly includes at least one pair of elongate first and second base members each having a vertical front wall with a generally rectangular upper portion that are installed on opposed sides of the bottom of a chain link or wire mesh fence in parallel opposed relation and form a generally rectangular enclosure along the bottom of the fence which is filled with foam insulation material for preventing a mower or line of an edger from striking the fence when mowing or edging adjacent to it, and inhibit the undesirable growth of vegetation below the bottom of the fence and between the open spaces adjacent to the bottom of the fence.
