I share a weird entrance with my neighbour where they can see right into my house. I want to put up a privacy screen of some form - maybe like merbau screen slats or whatever really. But because it's technically body-corp area I can't bolt anything to the floor or wall in the way of a usual fence line - I'm limited to temporary/removable solutions.
I was thinking of that temporary 'construction zone' fencing with the concrete feet and aluminium wire - but they're way taller than I need and they look mighty ugly.
I also thought of using outdoor umbrella footings with a pole and attaching merbau screening to those, but I fear it'll still blow over in the wind.
I even thought of the office cubicle divider feet - like those carpeted panels for office cubicles with the T-shaped recepitcle feet - but I can't seem to find any for outdoor use that would withstand wind blowing on the panel.
I'm out of ideas - anyone have any thoughts?

Theyre individual panels so shouldnt be too hard to install/remove again if you need. Might need to have posts dug into the ground to anchor them, but if so thats a job you could do with a posthole digger as they're only light panels instead of being full-blown fencing. Outside of fencing panels (instead of a regular colorbond fence or good neighbour fence) I can't think of too many other options off the top of my head. Source: we had some dark coloured fencing panels put up on our property by the guys at Fences Adelaide. They were pretty easy to set up and cheaper than a full blown fence - if you're in Adelaide maybe drop them a line at Fences Adelaide Hope that helps! Good luck OP Thanks mate! Yeah nah I can't put anything down onto the concrete like posts or even bolts. It has to be a movable structure. I was thinking of one of those vertical awnings that pull outwards, kind of like an airport queue barricade strap lol. But they also need a post bolted to the ground to receive the other end. Not sure what else I can use other than a ton of plants which I don't really wanna take care of! 2 1165 We had to pay for our tiles but broom finished concrete was standard. As above though, each builder is different. 4 1299 Because often a quick question to a forum like this can save a user hundreds of dollars? If I called a technician every time I had an error code on an appliance, I'd be poor 2 4323 |
