noisy aluminium fence

Page 1 of 1
We have a 9 metre stretch of aluminium fences and gates. It makes a loud rattling noise on windy days. There's no garden yet to stop the wind.
We got plugs for the verticals, but it's still noisy.
Any ideas? DH is going to put expanding foam in each one - would this work?
Help please.

Is it the panels flexing in the wind? (sound like Rolf Harris playing his wobble board..) Can you push the panels with your hands back and forwards ? If so you may have to do some bracing of the panels to stop the movment.
It's all just poles with horizontal rails to hold them and vertical poles in the ground about 1500mm apart. It is like a wobble board but a real rattle.
