How much privacy do slats actually give?

It depends on the gap and the viewing angle. A screen with narrow gaps blocks the view straight on and from most practical angles while still letting light and air through. We work out the spacing from where the person looking in actually stands.

Can screening be added to a fence I already have?

Usually, yes. A top-up extension above an existing fence is the common request and is far cheaper than replacing the fence. The limit is whether the existing posts can carry the extra height and wind load, which we check first.

Is there a height limit on a screen?

Local councils set limits on boundary fence and screen heights, and they vary. It is worth checking before you settle on a height — we will raise it at the quote if your job is close to the line.

Privacy Screening

Privacy screening solves the problem a fence cannot: an overlooked patio, a pool that is visible from a neighbouring upper storey, an air-conditioning unit you would rather not look at. Screens are designed to block a specific sight line, which is why the spacing and the height are worked out on site rather than ordered from a catalogue.
