The Espalar Wire Anchor system is a high quality method of installing wire systems for a range of multi-purpose applications including espaliered fruit trees, climbing plants and flowers. It is used by professional landscapers and is also used by gardeners and home handymen as a DIY solution. It is ideal to use as a support wire for espalier, with its innovative design simplifying the task of keeping wires taut and in place. The system is easy to setup and install yourself using our ‘Do It Yourself’ instruction guide.
The Espalar Wire Anchor System:
- Post to Post
- Wooden fence palings
- Concrete and brick
- High quality materials with 10 year warranty
- Attractive and versatile design
- Easy technique for re-tensioning wires

How To Espalier with Espalar Starter Kits
Our Starter Kits are designed to get you underway with your first espalier project. Starter kits are available for post mounting and surface mounting on timber, concrete, brick etc. The surface mounted kits vary to suit light-weight, heavy-duty and diamond espalier projects. To find out whether your project is light-weight or heavy-duty please see details of each in the table below. Each kit contains all the components you will need to set up an espalier framework. This is a cost-effective way to be introduced to the Espalar system.

DIAMOND PATTERN ESPALIER
This creates a stylish pattern when growing vines, such as star jasmine, clematis or bougainvillea. This system can be used for fixing onto timber fences, concrete block, or brick substrates, using screw plugs.
COASTAL ENVIRONMENTS
When using the Espalar system in coastal environments where corrosive elements such as salt air can affect the durable life of wire, we recommend 2.0mm stainless steel wire rope (this is not braided wire). Both the Anchor Platform and Radial Wire Guides should also be used for more durable fixing. MINIMUM RECOMMENDED
- 2.0mm stainless steel wire rope (this is not braided wire).
- Espalar system mounts (anchor platform and radial wire guides)
- Wire rope and all components available from our online store.
