King Street Vineyards Privacy Screen The KSV Privacy Screen system is a nice addition for a home owner who seeks more privacy on your patio or porch. This three or four panel screen is attractive from either the front or its back side and will be an attractive addition to an outdoor patio or porch, especially those that face a neighbor home or back yard. There are two fundamental features that make the KSV Privacy Screen so valued. The first is that it can sustain its look and quality of appearance through three seasons of outdoor use. It can easily take changes in temperature, humidity, and rainfall — from March through to November. Please note, it should always be taken off its stands when it becomes windy (greater than 10 mph). The frame is made from mahogany and is one of the best woods for sustaining long-term, outdoor usage. The other value is that the fabric is manufactured by the leader in outdoor and marine upholstery, called Sunbrella. The fabric is expensive but it’s the only material strong enough to endure New England weather and that’s why we only upholster the KSV Privacy Screens with this fabric. The KSV Privacy Screen is hand-made by craftsmen in New Hampshire, USA. The screens are upholstered double sided using your choice of an outdoor fabric from the leader in outdoor fabric; Sunbrella. Each KSV Privacy Screen is built and fabricated to meet your unique requirements. The price of the three or four panel screens is based on the specific fabric you select from the Sunbrella Showroom. Based on your selection, KSV will provide you a quote. Follow the link to the Sunbrella Showroom (http://snb.la/SR0212) to make your selection. Please write down the name and the associated product number (No.) of the fabric you would like your screen to be upholstered when sending in your request.
