Slatted courtyard screens
Use vertical or horizontal metal slats to define an outdoor room. Slat spacing and the depth of the screen are arranged around the views, planting and seating nearby.

Privacy screens
Create a more private courtyard, screen a neighbouring view or divide an outdoor dining area with custom metal screens. We plan the panel position and infill around real sightlines, daylight, airflow and the structure it will attach to.

04 / The practical details
Questions about custom metal privacy screens.
Can a screen give privacy without making the area feel closed in?
Yes. Angled fins, spaced slats and selective panel placement can screen the important views while leaving other directions open. Send photos from the seating area and from the direction you want to screen.
Can it attach to an existing deck or wall?
Yes. The panel and its brackets can be made around an existing structure. Show the structure behind the finish as well as the visible surface so the fixing arrangement and any strengthening can be agreed.
Will a screen suit an exposed or coastal position?
Yes. Matt can select the metal, finish and support arrangement for the location. Wind exposure matters particularly for solid panels; include the site conditions and any design requirements with the brief.
Can you include an opening for equipment access?
Yes. A removable panel or coordinated access gate can keep equipment reachable. Provide the equipment manufacturer’s ventilation and service-clearance requirements so screening does not get in the way of operation or maintenance.
