Screen FAQ
What is a HIDEAWAY Screen?
A HIDEAWAY Screen is an architecturally designed privacy panel. Laser cut and fabricated from .100” thick high grade powder-coated aluminum sheets. HIDEAWAY Screens were originally designed out of the need for privacy in our founder’s backyard, however, our screens have proven to be extremely functional as well as practical. Our screens can also act as a wind barrier or fence, guardrail, provide shade, enclose your barbeque or other pool or AC equipment, define a space, or act an interior/exterior design feature.
What are the dimensions of a standard stock HIDEAWAY Screen?
Our HIDEAWAY Screens are 36” Wide x 68” Tall, and weigh approximately 19 lbs. Our posts are 3" x 3" x 73" Tall Our mounting brackets are 1" x 1" L x 68" Long. When installed at our typical configuration, the screens will finish at 72” above ground surface. There is an allowance of a 4” gap at the bottom of the screens when installed to allow for sweeping or shoveling below the screen.
I have a special project. Do you provide custom widths, sizes or designs?
We sure do! Please feel free to contact us with some details about your project, and we will help create your bespoke Hideaway haven.
How many designs do you have?
We currently have ten standard designs: Branch, Breeze, Dash, Hexx, Horizon, Maui, Moderna, Rain, River Rock, and Solid. Each design is available in black or white. We are able to customize almost any screen design, size and color.
Do you have colors other than white or black?
Our standard colours are our textured black and textured white. We also regularly stock additional colors as we understand the need for additional creativity! These are Gold, Silver, Brown, Industrial Grey, Charcoal, Anodized Bronze, C34 Bronze and Corten Steel (not a powdercoat but rather the material itself) We are also able to color match almost anything on the RAL. Non-standard colors may be subject to additional charges.
I want to install my screen outside. Will my HIDEAWAY Screen rust or otherwise require any maintenance?
Great Question, No. Hence why we designed our products with powder-coated aluminum. It will not rust, making it the ideal material for outdoor use. (and also inherently for indoor use as well!) In addition, each screen is professionally powder coated with UV-resistant paint ensuring the products do not fade and are more resistant to chipping or scratching.
But I am not handy! Will you install my screens for me?
Unfortunately, we are only an online e-commerce retailer and do not offer installation services. However, we have a list of contractors familiar with our products and their assembly, allowing us to share their information with future HIDEAWAY customers.
Do you have a showroom?
Coming September 2024 in Edmonton, AB.
Will these screens replace my handrail or guardrail?
Absolutely! Our screens have been tested against the Handrail and Guardrail requirements as outlined in the National Building Code of Canada (NBC), the Ontario Building Code (OBC) and the International Building Code (IBC). More information on these topics are available below:
