Cordless hedge shears for shrubs and detail work

Not every hedge needs a full-size trimmer. For box balls, low borders, topiary and small shrubs, cordless hedge shears give you more control with less weight. Batavia's 12V Cordless 2-in-1 Grass Shear & Shrubber is a compact shrub shear with a 180 mm blade that switches to an 80 mm grass blade in seconds.

Applications

  • Shaping box balls, cones and other topiary
  • Trimming low hedges and border edging
  • Keeping small shrubs, lavender and evergreens tidy
  • Detail work and touch-ups after a larger hedge trimmer
  • With the grass blade: lawn edges and corners a mower cannot reach

Features

  • 180 mm shrubber blade for precise shaping of small hedges and shrubs
  • 80 mm grass blade included for neat lawn edges
  • Tool-free blade change – from shrub shear to grass shear in seconds
  • Lightweight one-hand design – comfortable, even during longer sessions
  • 12V Fixxpack platform – one battery and charger for multiple 12V tools

Benefits of battery-powered hedge shears

  • Less strain than manual shears – the motor does the work, so your hands and wrists stay fresh.
  • Precise control – the short blade and light weight make it easy to follow curves and shapes.
  • No cable – no socket needed, no cord in the way and no trip hazard.
  • Quiet – suitable for small jobs in the garden, on the balcony or around the patio.
  • Low maintenance – keep the blades clean and oiled.

Hedge shears or hedge trimmer?

These shrub shears are ideal for small-scale, detailed work. For long or tall hedges, a hedge trimmer with a longer blade works faster: see the cordless hedge trimmers. For woody branches, pick a pruner or saw from our pruning tools.

Tips for shaping shrubs and topiary

  • Work from the bottom up and from the outside in, taking a little off at a time.
  • Keep hedges slightly narrower at the top than at the base, so light reaches the lower branches.
  • For box balls, turn around the plant and cut in short, curved strokes; step back regularly to check the shape.
  • Trim on a dry, overcast day to prevent leaves from scorching on fresh cuts.
  • Clean the blade after use: sap from box and conifers quickly makes blades sticky.

With light, regular trims you keep shrubs compact and dense, and each session stays short.

Frequently asked questions about cordless hedge shears

What are cordless hedge shears used for?

They are made for small hedges, shrubs and topiary: shaping box balls, trimming low borders and doing detail work that a large hedge trimmer is too heavy or too long for.

What is the cutting length of the 12V Grass Shear & Shrubber?

The shrub blade has a cutting length of 180 mm. The included grass blade has a cutting width of 80 mm.

Can I use the hedge shears for the lawn as well?

Yes. It is a 2-in-1 tool: swap the shrub blade for the grass blade without tools and trim lawn edges and corners.

Which battery do the cordless hedge shears use?

They use the 12V Fixxpack battery, which also fits other Batavia 12V Fixxpack tools. 18V Maxxpack batteries do not fit.

Are hedge shears suitable for large hedges?

They can handle small hedges, but for long or tall hedges an 18V hedge trimmer with a 560 mm blade is quicker and less tiring.
