Privacy Beams: Stylish Screening with Endless Possibilities

Longboard® Privacy Beams bring both function and elegance to interior spaces, serving as stand-alone screening members or as part of the Longboard® Privacy Screen System. Available in floating or end-frame configurations, these versatile beams are offered in 1″×5″ or 1″×3″ profiles, with reinforced side walls for secure mechanical fastening. Choose from a wide range of premium wood grain, solid color, and specialty finishes to suit any design vision.

For a refined, finished appearance, matching Longboard® end caps are available. When used in a floating configuration, the Privacy Screen System can double as an open-joint cladding rainscreen, delivering both style and function. Single posts anchor the system discreetly behind the beams, creating a continuous, seamless look, while mounting brackets and spacer bars ensure consistent, precise spacing.
