Before you book privacy screen & lattice installation
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Stand where you want privacy
Sit or stand in your usual spot and note which windows, decks and walkways look into it. Take photos from there.
Decide how solid it should be
Solid panels block the most but catch wind and light. Slatted and lattice designs let air and light through.
Check height and distance rules
Find any limits on height or distance from the property line or street. Ask your association before ordering.
Tell the pro what it will stand on
Soil, concrete, a deck and pavers each need a different mounting. Mention the surface and any known buried lines or sprinkler pipes.
Plan service access
If the screen hides an AC unit, pump or meter, leave a gap or a hinged panel for service. Check the equipment manual for required clearance.
Choose the finish early
Wood needs sealing or paint, and metal needs a coating that suits your climate. Decide on color and finish now so the order matches the plan.
