If you’re looking for a way to enhance your outdoor space, you might want to consider installing decorative screens. Stratco offers a range of outdoor screening solutions that are versatile and stylish, providing any area privacy, in style. Decorative screening comes in a variety of materials, designs, and colours to suit your taste and budget. We’ll explore some of the different screening types, and how you can use it to generate your own garden screening ideas and create your own outdoor masterpiece.
Metal Screens
One of the most popular types of outdoor screening is metal screens. Metal screens are made from high-quality steel that is either painted or rusted giving you the option for a natural or more rustic look. Metal screens are durable, weather-resistant, and easy to maintain. They also work well as a privacy screen for outdoors as they are hard to see and cut through.
Steel and rust decorative screens come in a variety of designs, ranging from geometric patterns to intricate floral motifs, that effortlessly infuse your outdoor area with character and charm. These versatile screens come in various sizes and shapes, allowing you to customise them to your preferences. Whether utilized as standalone panels, gates, fences, or even as captivating facades for your house or shed, metal screens serve as both functional and aesthetically pleasing elements for your outdoor space.

Timber Screens
Another type of decorative screening is timber screens. This screening solution is made from natural wood that is treated for outdoor use. Timber screens are warm, inviting, and eco-friendly. They also offer a high level of privacy and noise reduction, as they absorb sound and block views.
Timber screens offer a wide range of wood options, including pine, merbau, and cedar, each possessing distinct colours and textures. The many options of timber screening mean you have the flexibility to select from various styles of timber screens. Whether you need them for fences, gates, patios, or decks, timber decorative screens seamlessly integrate into your outdoor space, providing both functionality and visual appeal.

Bamboo Screening
People love the look of bamboo when it comes to garden screening and for good reason! These screens embody qualities of sustainability and eco-friendliness. Bamboo is known for its fast growth, renewability, and biodegradability, making it an excellent choice for environmentally conscious individuals. In addition to being environmentally friendly, bamboo screens are lightweight, sturdy, and flexible, ensuring a long-lasting and versatile screening solution. Their dense and lush composition also provides an excellent level of privacy and shade, creating a serene and secluded outdoor environment. Additionally, a low cut-through makes it an ideal privacy screen for gardens.
