Let’s get to it and cover commonly asked questions surrounding artificial grass widths.
Does Artificial Grass Come in Standard Widths?
Good question! Artificial grass widths do come in standard widths. These are:
- 2m
- 4m
- 5m
When purchasing artificial grass, it is possible that you will require joins if your garden is on the larger side. If joins are necessary in the installation of your grass, it is important that your artificial grass pieces are purchased from the same roll to avoid colour differentiation, similarly to when buying wallpaper.
No one likes that trip back to the shop to get the correct roll after putting up the same wallpaper but in different shades.
Getting your Measurements
Gardens come in all shapes and sizes. This is often an aspect of our homes we take pride in, especially when those summer months come. Making your garden look the part helps in basking in the ambience of that summer sun.
Thankfully, with the variations of widths and the ability to add joins, artificial grass caters for all shapes and sizes of landscapes. Whether you have a yarden or open-planned garden, your design is catered for.
The process of joining consists of joining together your rolls of artificial grass with joining tape and adhesive, and can be done DIY yourself with the help of our step by step guide, if you’re confident in your DIY skills.
Please note: Fitting artificial grass can include a lot of heavy lifting. Some may find difficulty with this process, so hiring a professional could be an option should you need help with the job.

Benefits of 5m Wide Artificial Grass
You may be wondering what the benefit of having larger artificial grass widths is when there is the ability to join rolls?
The benefits of 5m wide fake grass are significant, particularly if you have a larger space.
Quick and Easy Installation
Using 5m wide artificial grass, means that more space is covered, reducing the need for as many joins. In minimising the amount of joins needed, the installation process becomes quicker and easier, which can result in both time saving and possibly installation cost if you have chosen to hire a professional to carry out the job.
Economical Benefits of 5m Wide Artificial Grass
With more of the ground covered by using 5m wide fake grass, this usually means that less joins are required.
For example; Marks’ garden is 9m x 4m in size. He is wanting to purchase artificial grass, and is wanting the best size, to achieve the best finish in the best way.
We recommend that Mark buys 2 x (5m x 4m) wide lengths of artificial grass to cover his garden, as this will not only require less joins, but less wastage too. If Mark was to buy 5 x (2m x 4m), this would mean 4 joins were needed. If he bought 3 x (4m x 4m) he would have 2m x 4m of excess wastage.
Whilst less wastage means you haven’t paid for part of the product you won’t be using, it also gives an environmental benefit of 5m wide artificial grass. This help reduce the amount that will be discarded. It’s a win, win situation!
Does Size Matter?
All in all, the width of your artificial grass is dependent on your garden's shape and size, and standard widths are there to cater for all of these.
With larger gardens, it’s important to remember that for an easier installation and less wastage, the 5m artificial grass would be most suitable. Smaller gardens may benefit from 2m or 4m widths with joins.
