Slat Made in America Privacy Inserts for Chain-Link Fence, Double-Wall Vertical Bottom-Locking Slats with Wings for 4' Fence Height (Black)

So I've never been a huge fan of these as I tend to think they look kinda cheesy and cheap...but so do chain link fences in my opinion. I decided to take a chance so I could gain a little privacy from our neighbors and keep our dog from barking at them...the chain link fence isn't going anywhere so might as well embrace it. I also have flower beds along this fence that tend to fade into the back ground of their yard so I'm excited to see all my plants pop against the more solid fence look.I almost cheaped out and went with ones that were half the price but I'm glad I didnt. These aren't cheap, but well worth it. They are wide enough to fill the whole space available for each slat. Obviously the joint where it's all connected leaves a little open strip but that's it. When looking straight on you can still see through but it gives decent privacy. The slats are well made and sturdy and easy to install, the don't bend easily and that helps you get them pushed all the way down. As others mentioned, I also didn't use the bottom channel, it's not really needed unless you want that extra inch of coverage at the bottom. The slats are tight when in place and won't move easy so the locking channel isn't needed in my fence to keep them in place so just opted to eliminate that step. I kept them just in case for some reason they get lose, easy to add on later if needed.I attached some photos of the end result looking straight on. But also just the first test panel I did. You can see that looking at them from the left you can see through pretty easy, maybe 65% coverage. Straight on privacy goes up to about 90%. But looking from the right it's 100%. It's kinda like a blind slat just depends on the angle how much you can see through. The slats sit at a slight angle when inserted but that's just the natural angle created by the chain link. Nothing you can do about it but overall I'm very happy with the result and the product. I'm glad I spent more to get a good quality product that offers as much coverage as possible. Time will tell if the fade in the sun, hopefully not. But I'm really happy with how this turned out and love the added privacy!Oh and I'd suggest to measure your panels. I ordered one pkg to test before spending a bunch to do the whole fence. I wanted to make sure I liked it first. Anyway the test section I did used one whole package. So I just counted the remaining panels (8) and ordered more... easy right!? Lol Well each section isn't exactly the same width. I currently have a whole package left...I still have more to do as I work my way up the driveway so they'll get used. But one package does about 10' maybe a few inches more. So I'll be measuring each remaining section so I don't buy more than I need.Overall great quality product, great privacy, highly recommend.

Attractive. Easy to install. Sturdy. Adds a lot of privacy.

Worked perfectly, replaced my broken wooden slats for privacy. This was easy to install

coverage is great, they cover more if you have a smaller gauge chain link fence. I see people complaining about the coverage, They probably have a larger gauge fence. These are really expensive I wish they were $40 less. The shipping is really what pushes the price over what is reasonable as others have stated. In the end I need these for privacy due to my dogs barking.

My neighbor installed a chain link fence with built-in while plastic slats after several of his trees were blown down against the fence in a big wind storm.I have a 10' chain link gate that connects to his fence. I really like the privacy his fence provided so I bought these slats to put in my gate.They were easy to install for the most part (my gate has been in place for about 30 years and the chain link is a little bent in places). Someone mentioned to cut off about a 1/4"-3/8" chamfer from the bottom corners to help in slide in place. It does help. My gate is 6' high and took about 2 hours to install, there are a lot of slats in 10' and a bit of a learning curve. On a newer fence/gate, installation should be a lot quickerI like them so well I bought more to install on the gate on the other side of my home.Privacy was much better than the product description said I could expect -- almost 100%, I have to stick my face up to the gate to see in. Cannot see into my back yard from a foot away. They look good too.

I put up a new gate and wanted a bit of privacy so the multitude of sins in my side yard wouldn't be visible to the whole street. It's only 80% coverage because the chain link is large, but I think it still looks nice and provides enough privacy at a casual glance to satisfy me.Installation went faster and easier than expected. The slats were a couple inches too long. If I had been smart, I would have cut the first slat to fit the gate and then cut the rest of the slats to that size prior to installing them. However, I paid more heed to my brawn than my brain that day, so I installed them all and then trimmed after the fact. Not as tidy as it could have been, but c'est la vie.

Installed on a six-foot chainlink fence, about 30 feet. The slats are sturdy but whether they will hold up is open to question. I can't say whether the material they are made of will not fade or break down from exposure to UV rays from the sun. They are double the price of similar slats and whether they will prove to be worth the extra money I can't say.

The product does not come in a box but in a bundle and the bundle is the size that they decide. I ended up with a lot of slats and not enough guides, which shouldn't be, because you buy according to the amount of feet you need to cover. I spent a lot of more that I should have. They dont put enough guides so you have to keep buying slats in order to get the guides. Don't buy here
