Laser Screens for Garden Features

Outdoor screens have become popular additions to fences or rendered walls and can be used in lieu of them for privacy and security.

There is also a trend to start using laser cut screens indoors as room dividers, recessed into cut-outs, as in-fills for doors and balustrades or as a lovely focal point in place of a framed artwork.

They come in a variety of different materials from Corten steel, aluminium, Plexiglass, copper, brass to stainless steel. My favourite is the Corten steel and the rusted metal look lends itself to the natural element of landscaping. Corten is a structural material that creates a protective barrier so the main structure will not decay over time. But be careful Corten is real rust and can leach so be careful were placing it.
