H&P Building Privacy Screen

The panels typically arrive in their raw steel state. The signature rust patina develops naturally over time when exposed to the elements, usually taking a few weeks to several months depending on your local climate and humidity levels.

Yes, during the initial weathering process, runoff can stain porous surfaces like concrete or light-colored stone. We recommend placing the screen on gravel, grass, or a protective mat until the patina has fully stabilized.

The panel is designed to be versatile, but it does not come with a base for freestanding use by default. You will need to purchase or fabricate a mounting stand separately if you intend to use it without securing it to a wall or existing structure.

The laser-cut design balances privacy with airflow and light. While it creates a distinct visual barrier that obscures direct lines of sight, it is not a solid wall, so it is best suited for defining spaces rather than creating total seclusion.

No maintenance is required. Corten steel is specifically engineered to form a protective layer of rust that prevents further corrosion, making it an ideal, set-it-and-forget-it material for outdoor environments.
