Can my sprinkler system damage my fence?

Answer: Your sprinkler system could damage the powder coat finish with hard water, or if you have any chemicals in your sprinkler system. We recommend that you redirect your sprinklers away from the fence entirely. Failure to do so could void our warranty.

Why do slats on some fence panels have slight differences in color tone?

Answer: There’s nothing wrong with the coating itself. The way it looks might be a bit different from one slat to another because of how the powder is put on during manufacturing. But don’t worry; we check each batch of the coating to make sure it’s the right thickness, sticks well, and dries properly. So, it meets our quality standards. Those small differences in how it looks on each slat make the whole fence look more natural.

What is the sound rating for a SLEEKFENCE™ aluminum privacy fence?

Answer:

Our SLEEKFENCE™ privacy fence design has a STC rating of 25. It acts as a reflective barrier, which means sound will bounce off the fence rather than go through it.

BAP Acoustics Ltd. | www.bapacoustics.com modelled its performance using specialized sound insulation prediction software, INSUL v9.0.

Assuming a surface mass density of approx. 7kg/m2 (1.4psf) – the estimated sound insulation performance of our SLEEKFENCE™ privacy panel is STC 25.

Compare this to Wood fencing at STC 23, or Vinyl fencing at STC 21.

Why is the new post base made of steel instead of aluminum?

Answer:

We can achieve significantly higher wind ratings with a steel post base, allowing our fence to be used in hurricane zones.
