Aluminium window privacy screens provide an elegant solution for enhancing privacy in your home or office. Crafted with high-quality aluminium materials, these screens are durable, lightweight and resistant to rust or corrosion. They offer a sleek and modern aesthetic while effectively preventing unwanted views from the outside.

Aluminium window screens not only protect your privacy but also add a touch of sophistication to your windows, creating a stylish and comfortable environment.

Outdoor Screen Panels

All of our recycled plastic privacy screens come totally modular and can be cut to size or shape. These outdoor screen panels have been installed for many different use cases, including replacing rotted-out plinth boards from recent consistent flooding events in South East Queensland. Genius!

Fence Extension

These same products have also been used to add some extra privacy from all types of different fences. The modular panels are perfect for any handyman or carpenter to quickly and easily install. Our 20mm fence extension is super popular, or if you want to allow some airflow and sunlight through, the same product as above is a good option.

Flexible Design

With various sizes and configurations available, privacy screens can be tailored to fit any outdoor area. Whether you have a sprawling garden or a cozy balcony, there's an option for you.

Defined Zones

Tips on How to Take Care of Your Outdoor Privacy Screens

Elevate your outdoor living experience with Outdoor Privacy Screens that offer both functional separation and aesthetic elegance.

Here are some care tips to ensure you maintain the beauty and functionality of your screens to continue having that secureness feeling in your outdoor haven

1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down your screens periodically to remove dust and dirt. For different materials, such as wood, metal, or PVC, use appropriate cleaning solutions to avoid damage.

2. Inspect for Damage: Routinely inspect your screens for signs of wear, tear, or rust, especially if they're exposed to the elements. Address any issues promptly to prevent further deterioration.

3. Protect from Moisture: If your screens are made of wood, apply a weather-resistant sealant to protect against moisture and extend their lifespan.

4. Avoid Harsh Cleaners: When cleaning, avoid using abrasive or harsh chemicals that can strip finishes or damage surfaces. Opt for gentle, non-abrasive cleaners.

5. Trim Surrounding Plants: If your screens are covered in vines or plants, ensure they're not growing too aggressively, which could potentially damage the screen's structure.

6. Seasonal Storage: If your area experiences harsh winters, consider storing your privacy screens indoors during the colder months to protect them from extreme weather conditions.

7. Repainting and Refinishing: For wooden screens, consider repainting or refinishing them periodically to maintain their appearance and protect against weathering.

8. Professional Maintenance: If you're unsure about cleaning or repairing your privacy screens, seek professional assistance. They can provide expert care to ensure your screens remain in optimal condition.

Answers to your most frequently asked questions

Outdoor Privacy Screens FAQs

What materials are used in your outdoor privacy screens?

Our screens are made from high quality materials, including 100% recycled plastic and 6063 T5 aluminium. The recycled plastic is UV-stabilised to prevent fading, while the aluminium is powder-coated in various COLORBOND® colours for durability and to match your home's colours.

Are the privacy screens suitable for DIY installation?

Yes, our privacy screens are designed for easy DIY installation. The modular recycled plastic panels can be assembled and cut to size with basic tools (power saw and drill), and the Clik'n'Fit® aluminium screens are engineered for easy assembly and mounting.

What maintenance is required for these screens?

Our screens are low-maintenance. The recycled plastic panels are UV-stabilised and do not require painting or sealing. The aluminium screens are powder-coated for weather resistance and may only need occasional cleaning to maintain their appearance. Wash them as you would your car every 6-12 months. More in coastal or dusty areas.

Can the screens support climbing plants for a green wall effect?

Yes the recycled plastic screens are perfect for making vertical gardens on. You can either buy pots with hooks for hanging on the screen or plant climbing plants direct to ground and they will trellis up.

What is the lead time for orders?

The Aluminium screens take the longest. About 10 days plus shipping as they are made to order. The recycled plastic screens are sent out fast ex stock to anywhere in Australia.

How do you anchor an outdoor privacy screen?

This depends on the type of privacy screen you are anchoring. A common method for outdoor privacy screens is supporting the screen by setting posts in the ground. A general rule of thumb is to 1/3 of the screen's height in the ground and concrete it in. (Do your own engineering on this as wind loads and structure spacing differs for every application.)

Can I put a privacy screen on my side of the fence?

Yes that is your land to use and you should just check with your local council if they have any height and set back restrictions.

What is the difference between a privacy fence and a privacy screen?

A privacy fence might have an elevated height above the ground and run the entire length of your boundary, where as an outdoor privacy screen might be set to cover a particular area inside your yard. Eg you might have an outdoor dining area that you want some privacy whilst sitting there. The outdoor privacy screens will cover the focus area and the privacy fence covers the length of the property boundary.
