5m Wide Artificial Grass for UK Gardens and Commercial Projects

For big lawns and wide outdoor spaces, nothing delivers a cleaner, more professional finish than a 5m roll. Fewer seams, a seamless appearance and faster installation across larger areas.

At The Outdoor Look, the 5m artificial grass collection is the widest standard roll size we stock. It's the go-to choice for UK homeowners with generous gardens, landscapers tackling bigger projects and commercial buyers covering larger sites.

If your lawn is wider than 4m, a 5m roll usually saves material, reduces joins and improves the overall finish.

When to Choose 5m Wide Over Narrower Rolls

The biggest reason UK buyers choose 5m is seam reduction. The wider a single roll, the fewer joins run across your finished lawn.

In wider gardens, a 4m roll still leaves a band of exposed lawn needing a second piece. A 5m roll often covers the entire width in one go, giving a totally seam-free finish.

The result is a more natural-looking lawn without the subtle visual breaks that seams can leave over time.

Typical use cases for 5m rolls:

  • Larger UK back gardens in detached homes

  • Front lawns and driveways with lawn edging

  • Commercial landscaping across office grounds and courtyards

  • School playgrounds, sports zones and outdoor teaching areas

  • Holiday parks, caravan sites and large rental properties

  • Event flooring for large marquees, weddings and exhibitions

  • Sports clubs, padel courts and football training zones

How 5m Compares to Our Other Roll Widths

Width is a practical decision driven by the size and shape of your space. Each roll width solves a different installation challenge.

For narrow UK spaces, balconies and side passages, start with our 2m artificial grass collection.

For typical UK back gardens under 4m wide, the 4m artificial grass collection is often the best fit.

Pile Heights in the 5m Range

Wider rolls don't restrict your pile-height options. Our 5m range includes short, mid and luxurious piles to match every project type.

For hard-wearing, tidy piles ideal for busy commercial sites, see our 21mm to 30mm collection.

For balanced, everyday softness, explore the 30mm to 35mm collection.

For the richest, most realistic premium finish, browse our 35mm to 45mm collection.

If you want a safe, well-rounded choice across pile specifications, start with our all rounder collection.

Commercial and Sports Applications for 5m Rolls

Wider rolls are particularly useful on commercial and sports projects, where covering larger areas quickly and cleanly is a priority.

Football clubs, training grounds and astroturf pitches often specify wider rolls. Explore our artificial grass for football pitches collection.

Padel and tennis courts need durable, accurately installed surfaces. See our artificial grass for padel courts collection.

Nursery and school play zones use wider rolls to reduce seams and keep edges safer. Browse our artificial grass for play areas collection.

Measuring Up for a 5m Artificial Grass Installation

Bigger projects demand accurate measurements. Start with the length and width of your lawn area at the widest points, then multiply the two for total square metre coverage.

Always add a 10 to 15 percent allowance for cuts, seams and shaped edges. On larger commercial or sports projects, bump that allowance to 15 or 20 percent to cover corners, obstacles and wastage.

For very large areas, plan the layout before ordering. Placing seams in low-traffic zones, running fibres in the same direction and minimising offcuts all make a difference to the finished look and total cost.

Installing a 5m Wide Artificial Grass Roll

A 5m roll is heavy. We strongly recommend multiple people or professional installation for safe handling and a clean finish.

The installation process:

  1. Strip existing turf, weeds and surface debris from the area

  2. Excavate to allow for the sub-base layers

  3. Lay and compact a crushed stone aggregate base

  4. Top with sharp sand and level thoroughly with a screed

  5. Install a weed membrane across the prepared area

  6. Unroll the 5m grass carefully and let the pile relax

  7. Cut to shape precisely with a sharp utility knife

  8. Seam any joins using high-quality tape and adhesive

  9. Pin the perimeter firmly at regular intervals

  10. Brush the pile upright with a stiff broom to finish

Stock up on tape, adhesive and pins from our artificial grass accessories collection.

Delivery and Handling Considerations for 5m Rolls

Wider rolls are bigger and heavier to transport. Planning access, storage and installation logistics in advance makes 5m projects run smoothly.

Consider access to the site. Very long rolls can't always be carried through narrow gates, side passages or tight corridors. Measure your access route before ordering, especially for rear gardens with limited side entry.

Have a clear area ready to receive the roll. Unrolling a 5m grass cleanly needs enough space to lay it flat without obstructions. Move garden furniture, planters and tools out of the way before delivery.

Allow the roll to relax before cutting. After transit, the pile can be compressed at the edges and ends. Let it sit in its final position for at least an hour before committing to cuts.

Maintaining a Larger UK Lawn

Larger lawns benefit from a slightly more regular brushing routine, since bigger surfaces accumulate more seasonal debris.

  • Brush the full pile upright every two weeks in heavy-use periods

  • Rinse the surface with clean water to clear dust, pollen and leaves

  • Tackle spills and stains promptly with warm water and mild soap

  • Remove pet waste quickly and rinse the area thoroughly

  • Keep BBQs, fire pits and cigarettes clear of the surface

  • Move heavy garden furniture occasionally to prevent compression

Bigger lawns usually sit within bigger garden projects. Coordinating your grass with other Outdoor Look ranges delivers a unified finish across the whole space.

5m Artificial Grass FAQs

When should I choose a 5m roll over a 4m roll?

If your lawn is wider than 4m, a 5m roll usually covers it in one piece with no central seams. That gives a cleaner, more natural finish and reduces installation time.

Is 5m artificial grass suitable for commercial installations?

Yes. The 5m width is popular for commercial landscaping, schools, holiday parks, sports facilities and event flooring. Our commercial warranty covers 2 years of normal commercial use.

Can one person install a 5m roll?

We don't recommend it. The weight and width of a 5m roll make professional or multi-person installation safer and more accurate. Most UK landscapers work in pairs or larger teams on 5m jobs.

What pile heights are available in 5m widths?

Our 5m range spans short, mid and luxurious pile heights. You can choose the roll width to suit your space and still pick the pile specification that matches your look and feel priorities.

Are seams visible once a 5m lawn is installed?

Professionally installed seams are barely noticeable, but over years of use they can become slightly more visible. Choosing a 5m roll for wider lawns reduces the number of seams in the finished installation.

What warranty applies to 5m artificial grass?

Every 5m roll is backed by our 5-year residential warranty against manufacturing defects and excessive UV fading. Commercial installations are covered by a 2-year warranty due to heavier footfall.
