Material & Specification Overview
The table below summarizes the profile characteristics most relevant to fence and privacy screen applications. Exact dimensions and slat spacing depend on the specific product selected - please confirm against the datasheet for your chosen profile.
| Item | Detail |
| Recommended Structure | Standard PE composite or bamboo fiber composite slats, panel-frame or post-and-rail system |
| Standard Slat Width | 90mm - 145mm |
| Standard Panel Height | 1200mm - 1800mm, depending on privacy versus boundary-marking intent |
| Slat Spacing Options | Closed (maximum privacy) or spaced (increased airflow and a more open look) |
| Post & Fixing System | Composite or aluminum posts available, with standard bracket fixing hardware |
| Surface Finish Options | Wood-grain embossed, brushed, co-extruded capped for added weather protection |
Product Photography
We provide installed fence and privacy screen project photos showing full panel runs in a real garden setting, alongside standard slat close-ups, post and bracket detail photos, and export packaging photos, since seeing the finished screening effect and overall proportions is usually more useful for this application than a single slat sample alone.
A note on post spacing: recommended post spacing depends on panel height, slat spacing pattern, and local wind exposure, and we can provide a general post spacing guideline alongside your order, though we recommend confirming the final spacing with a local installer familiar with your specific site conditions and soil type.
We can also indicate how much expansion allowance to leave at the ends of each slat, since composite slats expand and contract slightly with temperature and a fence panel with no allowance can bow or buckle in hot weather.
Minimum Order Quantity & Pricing Structure
Fence and privacy screen orders range from a single residential backyard project to a fencing installation company or garden center ordering at distribution scale, so pricing follows our standard volume tiers with flexibility for smaller trial orders. MOQ for a first trial order is typically 1 x 20ft container, and fencing installers or garden centers can discuss smaller repeat-order arrangements once an initial trial has confirmed product fit for their market.
| Order Volume | Pricing Tier |
| Sample pieces | Sample fee + courier, often credited toward first order |
| 1 x 20ft container | Standard FOB pricing |
| 1 x 40ft HQ container | Discounted per-sqm pricing |
| Fencing installer / garden center distributor volumes | Negotiated pricing with repeat-order scheduling |
Quotations are typically given as FOB Ningbo or Shanghai, with CIF and DDP available once destination and Incoterm are confirmed. Standard payment terms are 30% deposit by T/T with balance against the B/L copy; distributors reselling this product can also discuss retail-ready packaging suited to a garden center or home improvement retail channel.
Because fence orders often combine several components - slats, posts, brackets, and gate hardware - we recommend requesting a single combined quotation covering the full system rather than pricing panels alone, since your total per-meter installed cost depends on all of these components together rather than the fence slats in isolation.
For installers who buy posts and slats in different proportions depending on the job, we can quote each component separately as well, so you can build your own job estimate from unit prices rather than a fixed bundle.
OEM & Customization Options
Fence and privacy screen buyers range from individual homeowners choosing a color to match their home to fencing companies developing a standardized product line, so customization requests vary accordingly.
- Color & finish - standard color card, or custom color matching for larger fencing company or distributor orders
- Slat spacing & pattern - closed, spaced, or a mixed horizontal-and-vertical slat pattern can be developed for a distinctive design
- Panel height & post system - specific panel heights and matching post styles can be developed for a fencing company's standardized product range
- Gate integration - matching gate panels and hardware-compatible frame sections can be supplied alongside standard fence panels
- Branding - private label packaging for fencing installers or garden center distributors
For fencing companies developing their own branded product line, we can also discuss developing an exclusive slat profile or post design, subject to a reasonable minimum order commitment for the new tooling investment.
We can also supply a small demonstration panel showing both closed and spaced slat patterns side by side, which fencing salespeople often find useful for showing homeowners the visual and privacy difference directly during an in-home sales consultation rather than relying on a photo or description alone.
For homeowners who want the fence to blend with an existing wall or planting scheme, we can also send a color sample set by courier, since a color chosen from a screen often looks different once seen next to real brick, stone, or foliage, particularly under changing daylight.
Certification & Quality Control
Because fence and privacy screen panels need to withstand direct wind loading in a way that horizontal decking generally does not, buyers on this line often ask specifically about wind resistance in addition to our standard environmental compliance documentation.
| Certification / Test | Availability |
| REACH / RoHS compliance | Standard formulation compliant |
| FSC Chain of Custody (fiber source) | Available on request |
| Third-party lab reports | Wind load resistance and UV/weathering test reports available on request (SGS/BV) |
| Factory quality system | ISO 9001 factory management system |
Our QC process for fence and screen products includes standard raw material inspection, dimensional monitoring, and pre-shipment sampling, with particular attention to slat straightness and post-bracket fit consistency, since a warped slat or a loose bracket connection is more visually and functionally noticeable on a vertical fence than on a horizontal deck board. We are glad to share wind-load test data for your specific slat spacing and panel height if your project is in a region with notable wind exposure.
We also recommend a slightly closer post spacing than the general default guideline for a taller, fully closed slat panel used as a solid privacy screen, since more of the panel surface catches wind load compared with a shorter or more open spaced pattern, and getting post spacing right is generally more important to long-term panel stability than the slat material choice itself.
We also recommend that installers set posts to a depth suited to the local soil and frost conditions, since a fence that leans after a wet winter is usually a footing problem rather than a panel defect, and we can share general guidance to help your crew avoid it.
Production Capacity & Lead Time
Fence and privacy screen products generally follow the production schedule of our standard composite line, with lead time depending on whether a standard slat pattern is selected or a custom spacing or post system is required.
| Item | Detail |
| Monthly capacity | Comparable to our standard composite decking line output |
| Sample lead time | 3-7 working days for existing slat and post configurations |
| Standard order lead time | 15-25 days after deposit and specification confirmation |
| Custom slat pattern or post tooling lead time | Additional 20-30 days for new tooling |
| Seasonal note | Spring and early summer landscaping season tends to drive higher demand for this line in many export markets - we recommend confirming orders a few weeks earlier than usual ahead of that peak period |
We provide production progress updates and can share photos of panel and post packaging ahead of shipment so installers and distributors can plan job scheduling or warehouse receiving in advance.
For fencing companies with a busy spring installation season, we recommend placing your seasonal stock order early enough to allow for both production lead time and standard ocean freight transit, so panels and posts are in your warehouse well before your installation crews are fully booked with scheduled residential jobs.
If you are testing this product in a new market for the first time, a smaller trial shipment ahead of the main season lets you confirm customer response and installation feedback before committing to a larger seasonal stock quantity, which reduces the risk of carrying unsold inventory into the off-season.
Logistics & After-Sales Support
Fence and privacy screen shipments follow our standard export process, with attention to protecting the longer slat and post components that are more prone to bending or scuffing during transit than shorter deck boards.
- Shipping ports - orders typically go out via Ningbo or Shanghai port; FOB, CIF, or DDP quoting available
- Transit packaging - reinforced bundle packaging for slats and posts, with corner protectors and secure strapping to prevent bending during loading and long-distance sea freight
- Documentation - commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin provided as standard; fumigation and inspection certificates available on request
- Damage/shortage claims - please document any container or bundle damage with photos at unloading; verified manufacturing defects are resolved through replacement stock or credit on the next order
- Installation guidance - installation manuals covering post spacing, bracket fixing, and panel expansion allowance are provided for your installation team
For fencing companies or garden centers with recurring seasonal demand, we can also plan a standing shipment schedule timed to arrive ahead of your local peak installation season each year.
We recommend inspecting slats and posts for any transit bending or surface damage before starting installation on a given job, since a bent slat installed into a fence panel is more difficult and costly to replace after the fact than catching it during initial unloading and sorting at your warehouse.
Bracket and screw sets are packed separately from the slats and posts and labeled by quantity, so your warehouse team can check the count on arrival and report any shortage while it is still straightforward for us to send a replacement set.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much privacy does a spaced slat pattern actually provide compared to a closed pattern?
A: A closed slat pattern blocks nearly all direct sightlines through the fence, while a spaced pattern allows partial visibility and more airflow - we can share sample photos of both patterns at typical viewing angles to help you decide which suits your privacy needs.
Q: Is this fencing suitable for a windy coastal or exposed rural property?
A: We can provide wind load resistance data for the specific slat spacing and panel height you are considering, and can recommend a closer post spacing or a more wind-resistant panel design for particularly exposed locations.
Q: Can a matching gate be supplied with the fence panels?
A: Yes, matching gate panels and hardware-compatible frame sections can be supplied alongside standard fence panels for a consistent look across the full boundary.
Q: Can I match my fence color to my composite decking from a previous order?
A: In most cases yes - let us know the decking product and color you are using, and we can confirm whether a matching fence color is already available or would need a color-matching sample.
Q: Do you offer retail packaging for garden center resale?
A: Yes, we can prepare retail-ready bundle packaging suited to garden center or home improvement retail display, in addition to our standard bulk contractor packaging.
Q: How tall can a privacy fence panel be built with this material?
A: Standard panel heights generally range up to around 1.8 meters for typical residential privacy applications; taller custom heights can be discussed, though wind load and post spacing become more important considerations as panel height increases.
