Hi Laura! We put up a free standing vinyl fence for less than $200 for all the supplies on our side yard patio. It made a huge difference and added some privacy where we have our outdoor dining table. We bought 3 panels, (4) 4” posts, 4 vinyl post covers, post caps, the connectors, and quick setting cement.
