Gråtonat (rökfärgat) glas är ett bra alternativ om man vill ha viss avskärmning men ändå kunna se ut. Det fungerar som solglasögon för din altan; det dämpar ljuset och gör det svårare att se in utifrån, men du kan fortfarande se konturer och landskap genom glaset.

In townhouse neighborhoods, where homes are often built close together, opal glass (frosted) is the most popular choice. It provides complete privacy right at the property line but doesn’t feel as forbidding as a wooden fence. An opal glass railing creates a modern and stylish border that neighbors often find more acceptable than solid wooden fences.

If neighbors live higher up, a vertical screen may sometimes be insufficient. By combining a tall opal glass railing with a pergola or an awning, you can create complete privacy from all angles.
The posts have a clever design in which the holes are rotated by a quarter turn. This automatically positions the wood at an angle that obscures about 75% of the view from the outside, while still allowing daylight to pass through. The design also serves as effective wind protection because air can flow through it, which actually makes the fence more stable in high winds compared to a completely solid wall.
Absolutely, this is a very common solution. People often install a taller privacy screen facing the neighbor or the street, while keeping a lower clear-glass railing at the front to maximize the view. This creates a customized balance between privacy and openness.
Right now, we’re seeing high demand for minimalist solutions like post-free glass railings that offer maximum views. Black-lacquered aluminum railings are also extremely popular for their modern look and low-maintenance nature. Many people also choose to integrate lighting into their outdoor railings to create an atmospheric setting on the patio even after dark.
A well-planned privacy screen is the key to being able to relax completely on your balcony, deck, or patio. By screening out neighbors, passersby, or views from the street and property lines, you create an extra outdoor room where privacy is the focus—without compromising on light, design, or security.
At Balustrade Store , we manufacture every privacy screen for patios, balconies, and outdoor areas based on your unique needs at our own factory in Ängelholm. We don’t believe in standard systems that leave gaps—we deliver a fully custom-made kit with millimeter precision that is technically engineered to remain secure for many years.
Balcony privacy screens are our most in-demand application—especially in apartment buildings and condominiums, where visibility from neighboring balconies, the street, and passersby is a common problem. Our balcony railing privacy screens solve this problem without blocking light or the view from the balcony:
Keep in mind that replacing privacy screens on a balcony in a condominium almost always requires the board’s approval, since the balcony is considered part of the building’s facade. Check with your homeowners’ association before placing an order.
For the balcony, patio, or deck in your garden, privacy screens are often the deciding factor in whether the space is actually used. If you’re sitting there eating dinner knowing that your neighbor can see everything, there won’t be many pleasant moments. Privacy screens for balconies from Balustrade Store solve this problem with the same quality and custom sizing as the balcony version:
Glass railing with frosted opal glass —the most popular choice because it blocks the view in without blocking out the light.
Aluminum railing with closely spaced rails – The Retro system offers a classic wrought-iron look, but in maintenance-free powder-coated aluminum.
Colored privacy screens —with the Color system, the RAL color of the slats is customized so that the privacy screen blends in with the facade or window frames.
If you're looking for a portable privacy screen for your patio, a solution for your property line, or specific design options, contact our customer service for advice tailored to your outdoor space.
Our best-selling privacy screen is a glass railing made of frosted opal glass. Here are the three systems to choose from:
Frosted opal glass is just as easy to clean as clear glass because the frosted finish is inside the laminate—between the glass panes—and not on the surface. This is the same quality found throughout our entire line of privacy screens for balconies and patios.
For those who prefer a more traditional look, our Retro system is a tried-and-true choice. Retro is inspired by classic wrought-iron railings but is made of powder-coated aluminum—which means it offers the same aesthetic as a wrought-iron railing but without the need for regular repainting or rust prevention.
By choosing a denser arrangement of the slats, you can create a sturdy and stylish screen for your balcony, patio, yard, or to block the view from neighboring properties. This privacy screen combines functionality with a design element that complements the facade—a popular choice for turn-of-the-century homes, cottage-style houses, and homes with traditional architecture.
With the innovative Flex system, you can take control of your privacy. When you want an unobstructed view, lower the glass; when you want more privacy or wind protection, simply raise the sections. It’s a movable privacy screen with a sturdy construction—ideal for balconies and patios where the sun or view changes throughout the day, or where privacy is only an issue from certain angles.
Flex is our most technologically advanced privacy solution and is ideal for those who want maximum flexibility without compromising on stability or security.
When you choose to build outdoor privacy screens, the choice of materials is crucial to ensuring that the structure can withstand wind loads and temperature fluctuations year after year. We use exclusively powder-coated aluminum and acid-resistant stainless steel (AISI 316) in our components. This ensures a surface that won’t rust or fade from the sun’s UV rays, making your privacy screen virtually maintenance-free.
We use laminated safety glass in all of our glass solutions. In the unlikely event that the glass breaks, the shards remain attached to the inner plastic film—which prevents both falls and cuts. This is particularly important when installing on balconies or patios with differences in level, where the privacy screen also serves as an approved fall protection system in accordance with current building codes.
Our railings are manufactured at our factory in Ängelholm, where the manufacturing process is certified by RISE in accordance with EN 1090-1. This ensures traceable materials, documented quality control, and the correct technical specifications for the selected product. For more detailed information on regulations, fall heights, and service classes, please read our patio guide, balcony guide, or safety guide.
If you’re planning to install a privacy screen along the property line separating your lot from a neighbor’s, it’s important to check your municipality’s regulations before placing an order. Generally speaking, tall structures located closer than 4.5 meters to the property line require the neighbor’s consent or a building permit, depending on the height and design. Different rules apply to privacy screens on the patio or balcony itself, as these are considered part of the building.
With a combined solution—a fence along the property line plus privacy screening integrated into the patio railing—you can create complete privacy on multiple levels. Contact our customer service before placing your order if you’re unsure about the regulations that apply to your specific lot and property.
