How to create privacy on a raised deck. Mix colors and textures to brighten the deck and place the pots on raised casters so you can easily move your privacy screen around if necessary. I was going to use zip ties but the rope looks so much better. Even though this trellis doesnt completely block the view beyond it provides enough protection to make the deck more enjoyable.
For the horizontal posts we used 16 ft long pressure treated. Fortunately there are a number of stylish and practical ways to create deck privacy. We used pressure treated 44 lumber for the 4 upright posts.
The deck was not engineered to support the weight of a conventional masonry fireplace so you will need to engineer a footing and support column that rests on the ground. Assemble Lumber and Supplies. Traditional Lattice and Vines.
Or Add Privacy With a Palm. Combine a pergola and a trellis to section off your deck space. Dont neglect the need to also create some noise privacy.
Most of the time when we think of backyard privacy were talking about creating visual privacy. Full or partial privacy rails will effectively shield you from unsightly views or the overly-neighborly folks next door. That will be somewhat expensive and quite a project and you may need to modify the deck which also would need engineering assistance.
You dont have to cover the entire perimeter of your raised deck to create privacy. I simply attached the three trellises together with the hardware provided and to keep them upright and stabilized on the deck I just tied them to the deck rails in a few places. All you really need is either a raised garden bed or some over-sized planters and you will be able to plant your privacy wall.
