Privacy Screening

Broadfence Privacy Screening gives contractors and site managers a straightforward way to close off visual access to an active job site. The screen attaches directly to temporary fence panels along the perimeter, blocking direct sight lines to stored equipment, materials, and plant from street level.

Visibility is a documented driver of opportunistic site theft. Most losses on a construction site are not planned in advance, they happen because someone passing by could see what was worth taking. By hiding what sits inside the fence line, screening reduces the chance a site is targeted at all during nights and weekends when it stands unattended. The same screen also helps control dust and debris transfer to neighbouring properties, which supports better community relations on urban and residential-adjacent projects and reduces the complaints that can slow a job down.

Screening increases wind load on a fence line significantly, because a screened panel presents a solid face to the wind rather than an open mesh. Broadfence recommends adding bracing, stabilizers, or additional ballast wherever screening is installed, and crews should confirm stabilizer spacing against site wind exposure rather than assuming existing bracing carries over from an unscreened run.

Broadfence supplies screening direct, so buyers keep reusable screen stock on hand across multiple projects rather than sourcing it job by job. For sites that want the same privacy benefit with branding, sponsorship, or wayfinding artwork applied, see the Custom Covers product page.
