Homeowners are choosing aluminum slat fencing more often, making it a popular choice. People look for stylish, low-maintenance ways to screen their yards and homes from the prying eyes of passers-by and neighbors. Aluminum slat fencing adds security and curbs appeal to a property. Consider a few important things when choosing aluminum slat fencing to ensure it stays strong and looks great for many years.
Quality of the Aluminium Slat Screens
Unfortunately, some flimsy aluminum slat systems on the market will sag over time. It is important to see and feel the aluminum slat before ordering to verify its quality. When you choose us to build your fence, we provide a range of size options, ensuring you will be satisfied with the quality while remaining budget-friendly.
Workmanship of Installation
A quality aluminum slatted fence is only as good as its installer. Ensure the installer is experienced with a good reputation by asking around locally and checking online reviews. A few things to ask your installer to ensure a quality installation are:
The span of the screen before a post or mid-rail is required
What latch and locks are available for the gates?
The spacing between the slats?
The depth the fence posts cemented in
Who will dispose of the old fence?
Customization of Aluminium Slat Fence
Your home is unique to you, so an off-the-shelf slat product just won't cut it. Look for a reputable supplier to build aluminum slat fencing to fit perfectly against your existing walls or fences. It is best to ensure you can choose the height, length, or slat spacing you like. Choose an aluminum slat company that will allow you to customize your aluminum slat gates. Aluminium Slat Fencing is best built and installed to your needs and detailed specifications.
The Spacing Between the Aluminium Slats
Latitude Fencing & Gates provide aluminum slats that are customizable, so you can choose the spacing between them to ensure it meets your and your local council's requirements. Your Local council will have unique, different rules governing fence height and the spacing gap allowed between the slats. It's essential to be aware of these regulations before you choose the height and gap between slats.
The Aluminium Slat Colour Range
Choosing a Colour
It is important to be able to choose the color aluminum slat that suits your style. Many people choose to match the color of their aluminum slats to their colorbond roof or the color of their window and door frames. Be aware that many aluminum slatted screen suppliers have a minimal range of colors, so be sure to shop around to find a supplier that can supply a screen in the exact color you desire.
Quality of the Powder Coating
Your outdoor aluminum slat fencing will be exposed to all types of weather over its lifetime, and you want to look good for a long time. It's essential to check that your supplier uses a quality powder coat. Latitude Fencing custom powder-coats aluminum slats to most colors (including all popular colorbond colors) using a gold-accredited Interpon powder coating that delivers a smooth, long-lasting finish. We even have Wood options available. It is important to note that even the best powder-coat finish will gradually fade over time.
