Your way: 10 fantastic applications for backyard privacy screens

  • Written by NewsServices.com

Aluminium decorative screens are a stylishly dynamic way to keep prying eyes out of your home whilst dividing the property. Specially cut designs are taking the home industry by storm with their ability to screen out the garden’s aspects without compromising on unparalleled elegance!

From the garden to the pool, the garage to the side gate, here are 10 incredibly luxurious and practical ways you can utilise aluminium decorative screens:

  1. Keep your entertainment area private

Because nobody wants their neighbours peeking in on their private parties, do they? There is something so absolutely uncomfortable about thinking your neighbours are spying on you whilst you have a few mates around for a barbie, and so these intuitive designs will keep their prying eyes well out of the equation.

  1. Add height to your fence

Looking to add an extra foot or two to your fence to really ensure its privacy? Then look no further than an aluminium decorative fence, designed to work as an extra privacy appendage for your home.

  1. Divide the yard for granny flats

If you’re looking to divide your home and build granny flats, these particular designs are perfect for creating a stylish fence. Not only will they maintain each occupant’s privacy, but they also look spectacular, thus adding to the rental/selling appeal.

  1. Complete the carport

The carport is known for putting a roof over your car, but what about the sides? If you’ve been looking to add a little more privacy to this otherwise-exposed space, the aluminium decorative screen is your perfect choice - it will add that extra level of privacy that you’ve been looking for without fail!

  1. Cover hot water systems

Hot water systems, as practical as they are, are not the prettiest installation you can have in the backyard. But with these smart designs, you can easily shield the system from view without inhibiting your accessibility to the system.

  1. Block out the air conditioner

There’s a bit of a theme going here, and that is screening out the more unsightly aspects you’d find in the garden/entertainment area. The outdoor air conditioning unit is another one of those more questionably aesthetic garden appendages, and so it makes sense that you might want to block it from view. Well, aluminium decorative screens will do just that for you!

  1. Give the gas metre a new door

The old gas metre door has never been a favourite wall hanging for people that want to enjoy their home, and so many people are now opting for elegant specially-cut doors to give that once-drab space a stunning new entrance.

  1. Cover the pool equipment

Because nobody wants to see all that unsightly pool gear lying around all over the place, so why not give it all a home in a neatly organised space with a beautiful barrier to finish the grand new space?

  1. Make a backyard divider

For a home with truly optimised elegance and luxury you simply cannot go past a backyard divider. The pinnacle of garden style, they not only look amazing, but also help improve garden foot traffic and create a more functional space.

  1. As a decorative piece

We’re not going to downplay it: these styles are simply beautiful. And so why wouldn’t you want to invigorate your backyard’s style and charisma than with one of these absolutely incredible, fine cut designs? Nothing says modern home elegance more, as these designs add a whole new luxurious element to the garden.
