How can I attach chicken wire and a door to an old gazebo?
+1
I would like to "enclose" my raised garden beds to keep wildlife out. I found that a 10x12 gazebo fits very nicely over two of my raised beds. I would like to attach chicken wire and a door so that only I can get to the fruits of my labor.

I use a staple gun to attach chicken wire. I'm not sure if that's the best way or the only way, but that's what I do.
I can't use a staple gun as the gazebo is metal. Thanks for the advice though.
And if you are trying to keep rodents and rabbits out, you will need to bury the edge of the chicken wire down at least 6 inches to prevent them digging in. If you have alot of them, I would do the whole floor.
a heavy duty staple gun will anchor chicken wire; any screen door fitted with chicken wire will work; hang like any other door; staple chicken wire to the outside of the screen ( or if it's damaged, just pull it off and use the wire ). Will the roof on the gazebo give too much shade ? you could also remove the shingles and do the 'roof' in chicken wire as well
