Do the strips fit 3D fence panels?

Yes, our strips are designed specifically for 3D fence panels (with embossing). They are available in narrow (44-62 mm) for panels with smaller mesh and wide (62-80 mm) for panels with larger mesh. In most standard panels, the mesh opening is 44-62 mm, so the narrow version usually fits.

What is a panel mesh opening and how do I measure it?

A panel mesh opening is the gap between two vertical wires. Hold a ruler or tape measure horizontally between the wires and measure the distance between their inner edges. If the result is 44-62 mm, choose the narrow version. If it is 62-80 mm, choose the wide version.

How do I install the fence strips?

Installation is very simple and requires no special tools. Slide the vertical strips from the top into the panel mesh, then insert the aluminium pegs into the holes at the top of each strip and mount the horizontal blocking strips in the 3D embossments. One person can install a set on one panel in about 30 minutes.

Will the colour fade in the sun?

Our strips are made from polyethylene (PE) with UV stabilisers. The colour is infused throughout the material, making it durable and resistant to fading. The manufacturer provides a 2-year warranty, and actual durability spans many years without visible colour change.

How do I clean the fence strips?

The strips require no special maintenance. If dirty, simply wash them with a garden hose or use a pressure washer on low setting. No painting, varnishing, or impregnation needed.

Do you produce custom-size strips?

Yes, we will produce strips to any custom size. If you need a height other than the standard 123, 153, or 173 cm, get in touch with us - we will prepare an individual quote and confirm the lead time.

What if I have non-standard panels or mixed panel widths?

Add up the total width of all sections you want to fill. For every full 250 cm, choose 1 ready-made set in the correct height and strip width, because it includes the vertical strips and the full set of mounting accessories. Fill the remaining width with single strips in the same colour and height.

Do I need to remove the strips in winter?

No, the strips are resistant to frost, snow, and rain. They withstand temperatures from -40°C to +80°C. You can safely leave them on the fence all year round without any maintenance.

How do the strips perform in strong wind?

The strips are flexible and hold firmly in the fence thanks to the slide-in system and horizontal blocking strips. In strong wind they may flex slightly, but they will not fall out of the panel. This is an important advantage over PVC tapes, which can tear out.

How many sets do I need for my entire fence?

One set is enough for one 250 cm long fence panel. Count the number of panels in your fence and order the same number of sets.

How is the top covering strip packed? Can I get it in one 250 cm piece?

By default, the top covering strip is packed in 2 pieces of 125 cm - this keeps the parcel within standard courier limits and makes transport easier. Joining the two pieces on the panel is simple and the seam is almost invisible. If you prefer to receive the strip in one 250 cm piece, select the "250 cm long-length shipping" option in the cart (available for sets and covering strips, fixed cost). Please note that long-length shipping is not eligible for the free-shipping threshold.

Do black strips heat up more in the sun?

The strips are made of polyethylene (PE), which handles heat well. The black colour may heat up slightly more than lighter shades, but this does not affect the durability or shape of the strips. The material is resistant to temperatures up to +80°C.

I ordered an anthracite set for 153 cm panels. Installation took me literally 20 minutes per panel. The effect is amazing - neighbours keep asking where to buy!

I was looking for something that provides 100% privacy without building a new fence. These strips are a perfect solution. The light brown colour looks like real wood.

Tomasz R.Verified

May 2025

Solid construction, thick and rigid material. Only downside - I had to trim the strips as my panels are 150 cm instead of 153. But no problem, scissors work fine.

Katarzyna M.Verified

Second year on the fence and they look brand new. Zero fading, zero cracking. I recommend green - our fence blends right into the garden.

Piotr Z.Verified

Wide strips set for 173 cm panels. Everything included - vertical strips, horizontal strips, pegs, and covering strip. No tools needed, managed on my own.

We bought straw ones for the balcony facing the neighbour. They beautifully brighten the space and provide full privacy. Fast shipping and solid packaging.

12-panel fence - ordered 12 anthracite sets. All dimensions perfect, installation went smoothly. Looks great, you cannot tell it apart from expensive systems costing thousands.

Best garden investment this year. Dark brown strips on graphite panels look elegant. Great customer service - they advised me on the right size.
