Product Information

Darlac's innovative design means these shears are perfect for precision cutting of grass, shaping topiary or hedge trimming. So, I have put together a list of my best garden shears for hedge trimming , shortening and cutting back branches, shrubs and hedges.

However, bear in mind that the longer you extend your trimmer pole, the more difficult it will be to control. When it comes to using hand hedging shears, which-ever model you choose, always ensure the blades are sharp. The safest thing to do is to keep both of your feet firmly planted on the ground and use an extendable hedge trimmer to get the job done in those hard to reach places. This GARCARE hedge trimmer is a very effective model for those looking to tackle overgrown hedges and shrubbery. The shears have a heavy-duty bolt that holds the blades together with stainless steel rings, providing stable construction.The Bosch 06008B3070 is a good choice for professionals seeking a heavy-duty trimmer that can put up with regular use. Long reach hedge trimmers are designed to help cut hedges high up safely and easily, without the use of a ladder, taking the strain out of the job and allowing the user to work safely due to the long handle. Long reach hedge trimmers are fairly similar to stand trimmer models, although they include a telescopic handle that allows you to reach the very top of hedges, with you remaining firmly on the ground. This cordless hedge trimmer from NETTA is a good upgrade of the previous trimmer in this list if you want more flexibility to complete gardening tasks.

However, if you need to cut through thicker branches, only a longer blade will be able to deliver the level of cutting capacity required. It is as comfortable as it is easy to operate, and thanks to it having 40% less vibration than its competition, your hands won’t go numb a few minutes into your job. Therefore making it easier to trim the top of taller hedges, especially when you can only get to one side of the hedge. The cutting head itself can be tilted into seven different positions, while the handle can also be adjusted, with four unique settings selectable.

The adjustable head also means you can ensure perfect results when pruning, even when working with different types of hedge species and shrubbery. The rear handle also rotates for ease of use, allowing you to undertake a wide variety of cutting applications with this premium trimmer.

While you can use a pole saw to trim your hedges, it may be difficult to create the sharp edges and straight lines you might be looking for. The 40-volt battery also makes this electric pole hedge trimmer easy to start, with none of the waiting around of a stroke engine.It can extend up to 13 feet or detach from its telescoping pole, quickly turning into a hand-held trimmer. A lightweight model will generally prove easier to work with, while ergonomic grip handles will also allow you to keep maximum control as you cut. This extendable telescopic trimmer can be effectively used to trim tall hedges and hard to reach shrubbery, with the pole extending to a maximum length of 2.
