Decking rope can be a simple yet effective&nbsp;way&nbsp;to make your space all the more homely. It&#8217;s a chance to add texture,&nbsp;section off areas in an attractive manner,&nbsp;or even make&nbsp;small spaces appear larger. But how do we find a balance between a rope that will look great, and one that is also suitable for the job?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\"><strong>WHICH ROPE IS BEST FOR DECKING?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color:#c0392b\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=61&amp;products_id=243\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>HARDY HEMP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=61&amp;products_id=243\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/hardy-hemp-spiral.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-784\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/hardy-hemp-spiral.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/hardy-hemp-spiral-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/hardy-hemp-spiral-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\">In most cases,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=21_71&amp;products_id=6\">hardy hemp<\/a>&nbsp;is your best bet. This natural-looking rope is in fact made of polypropylene, meaning it&#8217;s a sturdy, durable product that blends nicely into your garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\"><strong>Key features:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"color: #53565a\"><li>strong&nbsp;<\/li><li>resilient in harsh weather<\/li><li>UV resistant&nbsp;<\/li><li>won&#8217;t rot, shrink, or snap, unlike natural alternatives<\/li><li>looks and feels like a natural rope<\/li><li>floats<\/li><li>easy to splice<\/li><li>smooth and doesn&#8217;t splinter<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\">Our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=61&amp;products_id=243\" target=\"_blank\">decking rope<\/a> is available in sizes of 16mm to 36mm,&nbsp;so you can get the perfect size for your garden.&nbsp;Don&#8217;t know which one to go for? 24mm is one of our most popular sizes so we recommend using this as a guideline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\">It&#8217;s important to remember that our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=21_71&amp;products_id=6\">hardy hemp<\/a> is stored in tightly packed coils in our warehouse. When the coils are opened and we start using the rope, it relaxes. This means that a 24mm rope (for example) could expand by a millimetre or two by the time you get it. Bear this in mind if you want to feed your decking rope through any holes in your decking posts. We suggest a hole at least 5mm bigger than the rope&#8217;s diameter. From experience, a  28mm rope won&#8217;t go through a 32mm hole! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re buying cup ends, brackets or hooks for your rope, just order the size that matches your rope. The fittings are all slightly larger to allow for the rope to swell slightly. We do recommend that you fit the fittings as soon as you receive your rope, as rope that has been in storage for a while will continue to swell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re unsure though, we can always send you some samples. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=contact_us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Just get in touch<\/a> and we&#8217;ll get back to you as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color:#c0392b\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=21_71&amp;products_id=39\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MANILA<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=21_71&amp;products_id=39\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Manila-Rope.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Manila-Rope.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Manila-Rope-300x288.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Manila-Rope-313x300.jpg 313w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\">While most people go for hardy hemp, <a aria-label=\"manila (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=21_71&amp;products_id=39\" target=\"_blank\">manila<\/a> rope can also be used for decking.

It shares its name with the capital city of the Philippines because this is where the abac\u00e1\u00a0trees grow and the rope is made from their leaves. They give the rope its dark brown colouring and rough texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-dark-gray-color has-text-color\">But while <a aria-label=\"manila (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ropelocker.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=21_71&amp;products_id=39\" target=\"_blank\">manila<\/a> looks great, it will degrade over time (usually lasts around five years).
