Question mesh cover ideas wanted

I saw Clare's post about using sections of fireguards and that sounds great for what I'd call smaller areas.

The problem I've got is that my pen is too big for that.

I've made some covers with wooden frames and covered them with chicken type wire mesh. That has worked alright though they are a bit heavy to move about. And my carpentry is a bit rubbish.

I need to replace them as the wood is rotting.

Been looking at things like aviary cages, fruit and vegetable cages etc. Haven't found the right thing for me yet.

Over a wider span, a lot of materials will sag so I don't think I can use plastic mesh.

Looking for ideas............
