Function Description:

The Zippity Premium Vinyl Privacy Screen is designed to provide privacy in outdoor spaces. It is a standalone screen that can be installed in the ground or mounted to a pre-existing concrete or wood surface. The screen consists of multiple horizontal board walls supported by vertical posts, creating a solid barrier.

Important Technical Specifications:

Dimensions: The assembled screen measures 48 inches in width and 48 inches in height. The individual board walls are 7/8 inches thick, 11 inches wide, and 44 inches long. The posts (Left, Center, Right) are 3 inches by 3 inches by 47½ inches.
Ground Clearance: When installed in the ground, the screen has a ground clearance of 12 inches, with 2 inches of the bottom board wall extending below the ground level.
Materials: The screen components are made of vinyl, and the assembly uses 2½-inch self-drilling stainless steel screws. Ground stakes are 7/8 inches by 1½ inches by 18 inches.
Components:
- Post Cap (3)
- Left Post (1)
- Center Post (1)
- Right Post (1)
- Board Wall (8)
- Ground Stake (2)
- 2½" Self-Drilling Stainless Steel Screw (10)

Usage Features:

Assembly Time: The approximate assembly time for the screen is 60 minutes.
Installation Options:
- In-Ground Installation: The screen can be installed directly into the ground using provided ground stakes. This involves loosening the soil with a claw hammer and water, inserting the ground stakes into the post grooves, and then pushing/tapping the stakes 12 inches into the ground. The stakes are then fastened to the posts with screws.
- Surface Mounting (Alternative): For pre-existing concrete or wood surfaces, the screen can be mounted using galvanized steel L-brackets and appropriate concrete or wood screws (NOT INCLUDED). These additional hardware items must be purchased separately from a local hardware store.
Ease of Assembly: The instructions emphasize that excessive force should not be needed during assembly, suggesting a straightforward process. A video guide is also available by scanning a QR code for visual assistance.
Privacy: The design with multiple horizontal board walls provides a solid privacy barrier.

Maintenance Features:

Material Durability: The use of vinyl for the screen components and stainless steel for screws suggests good resistance to outdoor elements and potential low maintenance requirements.
