Product Information

Full details

The True Products Stabilising Edge Finishing Strips are an essential upgrade for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to professionalize their PVC bamboo privacy screening. These strips provide a clean, structured border that significantly improves the structural integrity of your fence, preventing sagging and wear over time. While they are highly durable and weather-resistant, it is important to note that they require manual cutting and attachment to match your specific screen dimensions, meaning a bit of labor is required for the perfect finish.

FAQs

Are these strips compatible with natural bamboo fencing?

These strips are specifically designed for PVC bamboo privacy screening and may not fit securely on natural wood bamboo poles due to diameter variations.

Can these be painted?

They come in a professional black finish, but if you choose to paint them, use a plastic-adhesion primer first to ensure the paint bonds correctly.

Do these strips come with mounting hardware?

No, mounting hardware is not included as the required attachment method depends on your specific fence post material.

How many strips are in a pack?

Each pack contains 4 strips, providing a total of 4 meters of edging.

Can I use these on curved balcony railings?

These strips are rigid and intended for straight-line installation; they are not designed to bend around curved surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Strip appears too long for the screen

Use a hacksaw or heavy-duty shears to trim the strip to the exact required dimension before attachment.

Strip is bowing after installation

Ensure that fasteners are spaced evenly along the length of the strip to distribute tension uniformly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces screen sagging over time
  • Provides a clean, finished appearance to raw edges
  • High-grade material handles all-season weather conditions
  • Easily trimmed to custom lengths for unique projects
  • Simple installation process for average DIYers

Cons

  • Requires manual cutting and alignment
  • Not suitable for non-PVC screening materials
  • Additional fasteners may be required depending on your specific fence post setup

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward but requires basic tools: a fine-tooth hacksaw for sizing, a measuring tape, and suitable fasteners or adhesive compatible with your existing fence frame. To ensure a long life, measure the height or width of your screening panel twice before cutting to ensure the 1000mm length is used efficiently. Once cut, align the strip with the edge of the screen and secure it firmly. For care, these strips are virtually maintenance-free; a simple wipe-down with a damp cloth during your seasonal garden cleanup is sufficient to remove dust or debris buildup.
