Privacy Screen Keeps Blowing Over in the Wind
-
Jeri Hagens-VandenOever on Jul 27, 2013I bought the same privacy screen about 3 years ago, & it still looks like new. I have mine on the deck, up against the railing & I just use bungie cords to hold it up against the railing. Works great. This screen also comes with holes at the bottom, so you can screw it to the deck.1 marked as helpful Reply

360 Sod (Donna Dixson) on Jul 27, 2013Are you placing it on ground or concrete or wood? To stabilize on the ground set some posts with concrete and attach it to the posts. If it is on concrete or wood use some brackets and bracingHelpful Reply

Tamara McMillan on Apr 27, 2014Maybe the Backing Material is not letting the airflow enough. Definitely need to weigh down the base with concrete or make extended spiked feet you can insert into the ground or weigh down with flower pots, etc. As for the backing if the original does not let airflow maybe it could be replaced with Burlap, or a simple lace. . even left open and allow a vine plant to grow up thru the design? I am sure there are many fixes you can do to save the screen and make it work for you.Helpful Reply
