Why do I need screening for my Pergola?

There are basically two types of screens for a pergola or patio.

The first is decorative screens.  Decorative screening is usually made from aluminium.  It is great option to obscure unsightly views or separate certain areas.  These screens offer privacy without completely blocking the view and let the breeze through for ventilation.  There are a vast array of designs available, and they look great and add that wow factor to the pergola.  They also come in many colours and size options.

The other type is fly screen or security screens.  These screens have a more practical purpose – home security and to keep those pesky flies, moths and mozzies away.  Having practical screens like these installed will make summer evenings entertaining on the pergola or deck much more enjoyable without those uninvited, annoying guests.  The added bonuses – there are no leaves to clean up in the outdoor area and it provides a safe outdoor area for pets.

Some great examples of Screened Pergolas ….

Great use of decorative screening on the road-side of the pergola to give this area some privacy.  Obscuring the view from the street and neighbours across the road.

What an amazing roof on this pergola, created by using decorative screening panels attached to the beams.  Apart from the roof looking amazing, the shadows created look pretty awesome as well.

This outdoor entertaining area is now protected from pesky insects and leaves and also offers a safe outdoor enclosed area for pets too.  This balcony entertaining area can now be used all year round.
