I. Advantages of Using Corten Steel For Screens



√ Self-Protecting Durability


When Corten steel is exposed to the weather, it forms a stable oxidised layer which acts as a strong shield against further corrosion. Its durability is beyond imagination. It is estimated that Corten steel has a service life of more than 40 years per millimetre of thickness, far exceeding that of ordinary mild steel. Unlike traditional fencing that requires regular repainting, Corten steel requires minimal maintenance to maintain its integrity. By choosing a metal privacy screen fence, you are choosing long-lasting quality that will save you the hassle of frequent maintenance.

II. Outdoor Privacy Screens: 4 Helpful Uses

 

Define an Area


Privacy screens are a popular choice for giving your outdoor space a more fluid feel. Unlike indoors, outdoor living areas don't have natural walls to divide different spaces, and screens can solve this problem at a low cost by clearly separating different functional areas such as dining and lounging areas. You can choose from a wide range of materials including wood, metal and even tall and fast-growing shrubs and plants.

Plants like Indian hawthorn, bamboo and cactus are perfect for creating natural barriers between different areas, and each material has its own unique aesthetic that can fulfil a variety of design aesthetics to match your unique outdoor environment. Want to make the layout of your outdoor space more logical and aesthetically pleasing? Request a quote today for the screen solution that's right for you!


Enhancing privacy


One of the most classic uses of privacy screens is to keep others from peering into your outdoor space. To effectively create a barrier between your yard and your neighbor's space, corten steel laser cut panels need to be at least six feet tall. Wooden fences and flagstone are the most common materials used for this purpose, but decorative metal and bushes can achieve a similar effect in a unique style.

Be aware, though, that if you're adding a new fence to your yard, you may need a permit from your city. Check with your local building department for zoning regulations to determine how and if you can build the outdoor privacy screen you want. If you belong to a homeowner's association, you'll also need to speak with them, as they may require you to use only certain materials or colours to keep the community together.

Creating Separation


If you've invested a lot of time and money into creating a beautiful outdoor kitchen, highlight the area by putting up a subtle privacy barrier to show off the results of your efforts. Just like with interior planning, using faux walls can make this space look like a traditional dining area. You can also create the illusion of a larger space by dividing the space, hanging your favourite artwork alongside the screen or hanging charming lights for a cosy atmosphere at night. Once you add more dimension to your outdoor living space, the possibilities for further beautifying it are endless. Want to make your outdoor kitchen the most unique corner of your home?
