Hedge Trimmers – neatest hedge

If you want your hedge or ornamental tree to look good year after year, it’s time to invest in a hedge trimmer. But before you buy, there are a few things you should consider in order to find the right hedge trimmer for you and your hedge.

Three things to consider when buying a hedge trimmer

Size of the hedge and branch thickness

What does your hedge look like? One way to make sure a particular hedge trimmer is right for you is to check your hedge to determine the thickness of the branches and the size of the area.

Hedge height and width

How tall and wide is your hedge? The taller and wider your hedge, the longer the blade length required. This way you can quickly and practically trim your hedge.

Different types of hedge trimmers

Battery-powered hedge trimmer

A battery-powered hedge trimmer is perfect for those who want a lot of freedom of movement or have a hedge growing far from the nearest electrical socket. The disadvantage of a battery-powered hedge trimmers is that they have a more limited operating time than, for example, an electric hedge trimmer. But for typical homeowners, this usually isn’t a problem. Biltema’s battery-powered hedge trimmers are part of a machine series, which means you can use the same battery for several of our garden products.

Electric hedge trimmer

An electric hedge trimmer is suitable for those who do not want to limit their usage time and have a hedge growing close to the house. Unlike battery-powered hedge trimmers, electric hedge trimmers weigh less and are more powerful. This means that electric hedge trimmers can be used for longer periods of time.

Petrol-powered hedge trimmers

A petrol-powered hedge trimmer is suitable for those who need to cut thick branches. Unlike the hedge trimmers mentioned above, a petrol-powered hedge trimmer has both a long operating time and a lot of power. This type of hedge trimmer is perfect for medium and large hedges that grow some distance from the house.

Traditional hedge shears

Hedge shears are suitable for cutting smaller hedges or bushes. Traditional hedges shears demand both time and manual energy. This means they are not suitable for anything other than cutting a few branches or making fine adjustments to the appearance of the hedge.
