The making of a privacy screen.

privacy screen

To make a privacy screen purchase two sets of bi-fold doors at your local home improvement store.  Remove one of the doors and attach it with it’s hinges to the other set of doors so that the door folds in the opposite direction.

(In this instance the homeowner had some old closet doors that were no longer in use)

Remove all of the slats, fill the holes, sand it and prime it.  Then paint it the color of your choice.  In this instance we painted it a soft white to go with the fabric the homeowner chose.

Using approximately 2.5 yards of fabric, flat panels were constructed with a rod pocket at the top and bottom of each one.

Tension rods were used to put each panel in place.  The finished product is light weight and allows light to pass through giving you a custom privacy screen to match your decor.
