With a chain-link fence, some homeowners may want to add some additional privacy measures in place to enhance the overall privacy of the fence itself. In fact, there are some specific additions you can make to allow your chain-link fence to have more privacy. The reality is, slats and screens are two of the most common ways homeowners can really amplify the privacy component of any chain-link fence. Ultimately, homeowners who are eager to add privacy to their fence can really maximize their efforts with the addition of some effective and efficient slats. Here are some excellent benefits of adding slats to your chain-link fence to boost privacy overall.
A Winged Slat Can Make All The Difference
There are winged slats available that can really come in handy when looking for a way to add privacy to your chain-link fence. In fact, winged slats are quite similar to “tube” slats which means their bodies are designed to be dual-sided. The reality is, that ability to be dual-sided ends up also adding the addition of “wings” to the sides which can really amplify the privacy of your chain-link fence. Ultimately, you can magnify the coverage of your fence by up to 90% with the use of winged slats — particularly when installed properly.
Hedgelink Slats For Added Privacy
Another great way to boost the privacy of your chain-link fence includes hedgelink slats. In fact, these slats are designed to create a seamless and organic “hedge-like” aesthetic. The reality is, the core of the slat itself tends to be made of braided wire which ends up being incredibly useful when looking for a boost in privacy for your fence. Ultimately, there are also some PVC needles incorporated into the design of hedgelink slats making it a highly desirable slat when it comes to adding privacy to your chain-link fence.
Bottom Line
At the end of the day, there is nothing more important than ensuring your fence does what you need it to do — whether that’s adding privacy to your property or securing it and protecting it — or both — there will always be different types of fences that can really help you make the most out of your fencing needs. In fact, chain-link fences are so versatile because you can easily add some additional features to create a more private fence.
