privacy slats

You can use chain link fence slats to enhance privacy, keeping prying eyes out while keeping your pets safely inside the perimeter. Slats forms a visual barrier and protects the yard from intruders. Follow the simple steps below to effectively install your own slats.

Tools and Materials

* Locking slat
* Plastic fence slats

Step 1: Sliding The Slat Into The Column

My chain link fence is 3' tall and the diamonds are 2 3/8". My first choice is to use winged slats- but the website says it will not work - second choice is to use the hedge slats for more privacy- will these work??? do they come in a 3' size????

How to Install Slats

Approach the fence and simply feed each individual slat into the chain link mesh from the top taking care to move slowly enough that you don't rip much of the plastic fabric from the metal core of the slat. The plastic fabric will work to hold the slat in place.

Take a look at the image included. Two slats will be slid in the chain link fence per diamond as illustrated.

Today I received the 2 boxes of hedge slats. There were no instructions included with either box. Please e-mail the instructions as I am anxious to get started before the weather get colder.

I am interested in privacy slats for a 2" mesh chainlink fence. I prefer the alumimum ones, although I am a bit confused about how to install them. I like color #1, green.

My question is how much I should order. The fence is four feet high, and I have 2 sections (gate) that are high priority, each 5 ft wide, plus 2 additional sections that I MIGHT do, depending on cost, that are each 6 ft wide... in other words, I would like a quote for the costs for (a) 4 ft high by 10 ft wide and (b) 4 ft high by 24 ft wide.
