Setup and takedown are the strengths of this screen. A card-slot structure joins the panels, which makes both assembling it in spring and breaking it down for winter storage a breeze rather than a job involving loose hardware. Three sharp, long ground stakes anchor the result: each runs 20 inches and inserts directly into the ground without any digging at installation.The panels are crafted of premium PVC, built to last and to withstand various weather conditions without the fading or splitting that untreated materials show after a season. Reinforced supporting posts run through the structure to make it more stable and sturdy, and top protective caps finish the panel edges to prevent accidental scratching and hurting. Maintaining the panels is a breeze since they are easy to clean, and the surface can be spray-painted or decorated to fit surrounding garden decor.Two privacy fences connect in two ways, an L shape or a straight line, and more panels can be added to create a larger privacy fence as the need changes. Each panel measures 48 by 37.5 inches, and with the ground stakes included the assembly stands 48 by 48 by 55 inches at 32 pounds.In use, the screen sits on either side of a trash can, an AC unit shell, pool bumps, and more, providing enough privacy for pets, gardens, yards, or unsightly outdoor items. It also keeps kids or pets from getting close to dangerous outdoor constructions. Assembly is required.
