How to add Colorbond fence extensions?

Hi, I have a pretty long length of colorbond fence. I need to put some privacy screens as the fence height doesnt look high enough.

Is there any economic solution to that?

Re: How to add Colorbond fence extensions?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @momoro. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about extending Colorbond fencing.

Depending on your budget, the first option to consider is prefabricated Colorbond extensions, which are designed for this purpose. Here's a helpful step-by-step guide: How to add an extension to a Colorbond fence.

 

The next slightly more budget-friendly option would be to look at Matrix fence extensions, which can be attached to your Colorbond fence. This would be a relatively simple D.I.Y. project. Here's a previous discussion on the topic: How to attach Matrix fence extensions to a Colorbond fence.

 

The third option I can think of and likely the most budget-friendly would be to attach a natural screening or lattice. These might be a little more difficult to affix to the fence as they are not specifically designed for that purpose. There are some lattice fence extensions that you could use with a little modification.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
