Hedge trimmers are essentially tools for maintaining a well-manicured lawn and garden. When you’re shaping hedges, trimming shrubs or cutting back overgrown branches, the right hedge trimmer can make the job easier and more efficient. Keep your yard looking fresh all season long with versatile bush trimmers at Ace Hardware.
Cordless Battery Hedge Trimmers
With options from brands like EGO, our cordless hedge trimmers offer a lightweight and portable option that's great for trimming anywhere. The battery power allows you to enjoy a hassle-free and cordless experience that makes quick work of your task. They are perfect for medium to large gardens and offer the freedom to move without being tethered to a power source. Remember to check that your power tools are fully charged so that you can have uninterrupted performance for every job.
Electric Hedge Trimmers
Lightweight and efficient, electric hedge trimmers deliver much of the same power as gas designs without the fumes and refilling. Remember to check for access to an outdoor power outlet before you purchase an electric hedge trimmer, while an extension cord may also come in handy. Find models at Ace from brands like Toro and Craftsman with ergonomic handles, cord locks to prevent unplugging and anti-vibration features to reduce user fatigue.
Gas Hedge Trimmers
Ideal for larger gardens and heavy-duty tasks, gas hedge trimmers deliver the portability you need to trim your hedges wherever they are. Most gas hedge trimmers take the same gas as your lawn mower, making them convenient to refuel to reduce downtime. Shop Ace for gas hedge trimmers from brands like Stihl, with a front hand guard for safety, anti-vibration system and built-in rear hanger for compact storage when the job is done.
Hedge Trimmer Features
Look for the following special features in your new hedge trimmer for quick, comfortable and convenient job completion:
- Articulating heads for custom angle cuts
- Dual-action blades for minimal vibration
- Lightweight designs for easy maneuverability
- Standby locks for improved safety
- Soft grips for greater comfort
When shopping for the right hedge trimmers, check the size of your shrubbery to find the right blade. The deeper and higher the foliage, the longer the blade you’ll need.
How to Choose a Hedge Trimmer
When selecting a hedge trimmer, you’ll want to consider the size of your yard, weight and a few other important factors.
- Garden size: Choose a hedge trimmer that matches the size of your garden. Electric hedge trimmers are great for small to medium gardens, while gas hedge trimmers and cordless hedge trimmers are better for larger areas.
- Blade length: Longer blades can cover more area in a single pass, making them ideal for large hedges. Shorter blades offer more control for detailed trimming.
- Weight: Consider the weight of the hedge trimmer, especially if you have a lot of trimming to do. Lighter models are easier to handle and can reduce fatigue.
- Maintenance: Gas hedge trimmers require more maintenance than electric or cordless models. Choose one that fits your maintenance preferences.
Hedge Trimmer Attachments and Kits
Ace has a selection of hedge trimmer attachments to choose from, including telescoping trimmer extensions to access hard-to-reach places and reduce fatigue. What’s more, our bush trimmer kits typically feature what you need to get started, with the tool, battery, charger and blade cover bundled together.
