Privacy Beams for Screens & Enclosures

Privacy beams are available in 1×5 or 1×3 size at 24ft length with thickenings in the side wall to hold mechanical fasteners and come in a wide variety of wood grain, solid colour, and specialty finish options. They are designed to accept matching Longboard end caps where needed to create a finished look.

When used as a floating system, single posts are designed to be installed behind the beams anchoring the system to the structure providing a continuous look. The end frame system is designed as a dual-sided application utilizing double posts as intermediate supports with single posts at corners and termination points.
