Privacy fence screens—because even porch margaritas deserve a little peace.
We love our neighbors in Central Texas, but sometimes you just need to enjoy your porch margarita without an audience. Whether you’re shielding your hot tub from nosy Nellies or building a breezy escape in your Round Rock backyard, privacy screens are the answer.
Here’s how to keep the good vibes in—and the weird stares out.

Top 4 Privacy Screen Ideas for Texas Yards
Horizontal Cedar Slats
- Best For: Clean, modern look in places like Leander or Pflugerville
- Pros: Stylish, durable, and matches well with most fence builds
- Cons: Gaps = light and breeze, but may not block everything
Decorative Metal Panels
- Best For: Garden zones and artistic backdrops
- Pros: Adds texture and visual flair (hello, Pinterest!)
- Cons: Less coverage than wood if you’re blocking sightlines
Lattice with Climbing Vines
- Best For: Boho vibes and natural privacy in shady corners
- Pros: Affordable and great for pollinators
- Cons: Takes time for full plant coverage
Board-on-Board Wood Screens
- Best For: Full-privacy barriers (aka no peeking)
- Pros: Overlapping boards offer complete coverage
- Cons: Less airflow, more material cost—but worth it
Where They Work Best (Central + South Austin Edition)
Whether you’ve got a funky bungalow in Zilker, a new build in Easton Park, or a family-friendly lot in Circle C Ranch, privacy screens are a stylish way to keep your outdoor space your space.
- Zilker + Travis Heights: Add architectural appeal and block out foot traffic near SoCo—because your hammock nap isn’t a community event.
- South Manchaca (SoMa): Great for smaller yards where fences can feel overbearing. Privacy screens give shade and solitude without closing things off.
- Buda + Kyle: Perfect for growing families who want a bit more separation between play zones and neighbor visibility.
- Easton Park: Modern metal screens or mixed-material styles match the neighborhood’s vibe and HOA expectations.
- Circle C Ranch: Screens around patios, pools, or gardens offer elegance and functionality—without disrupting your corner-lot curb appeal.
Pro Tip:
Add a shade structure, string lights, or tall planters and suddenly your screen feels like a resort feature. Fence screen, who?

Reb’s Roundup – Backyard Boundaries, the Classy Way

Hey y’all, it’s Reb—and I’ve got opinions on fences and feelings.
Too many folks think a privacy screen means throwing up a boring ol’ wall. But not in Texas. Here, we do it with style. Whether you’re hiding from a neighbor’s yappy dog or just want a shady little reading nook, we’ve got designs that do both.
Plus, y’know, a little mystery in the backyard never hurt anybody. Especially if you’re trying to hide that wonky trampoline from 2006.
Catch ya out back,
