When
shopping for
fish pond bridges, one of the most important pieces of
information you need to keep in mind is the width of your pond. The
bridge that you choose will obviously need to be a bit wider than
the full width of your pond, but it does not need to be and should
not be much wider.
Before you start shopping, measure a few different spots
on your pond where fish pond bridges could potentially go. This way,
if you find the perfect bridge, but it is too short for you first
choice spot, you may find that it is perfect for your second choice
spot, and you may decide to get it anyhow.
To measure your pond, enlist the help of a friend. Grap
a tape measurer and give your friend one end of it. Each of you start
on opposite sides of the pond and walk to a point where you may want
a bridge. measure the pond from water's edge to water's edge. It helps
to have a friend, because sometimes a pond is just too wide to measure
it yourself!
