Proudly Made in The USA! - SoliTube Slat Privacy Inserts for Chain-Link Fence, Double-Wall Vertical Bottom-Locking Slats with Wings (4ft, Black)

So I've never been a huge fan of these as I tend to think they look kinda cheesy and cheap...but so do chain link fences in my opinion. I decided to take a chance so I could gain a little privacy from our neighbors and keep our dog from barking at them...the chain link fence isn't going anywhere so might as well embrace it. I also have flower beds along this fence that tend to fade into the back ground of their yard so I'm excited to see all my plants pop against the more solid fence look. I almost cheaped out and went with ones that were half the price but I'm glad I didnt. These aren't cheap, but well worth it. They are wide enough to fill the whole space available for each slat. Obviously the joint where it's all connected leaves a little open strip but that's it. When looking straight on you can still see through but it gives decent privacy. The slats are well made and sturdy and easy to install, the don't bend easily and that helps you get them pushed all the way down. As others mentioned, I also didn't use the bottom channel, it's not really needed unless you want that extra inch of coverage at the bottom. The slats are tight when in place and won't move easy so the locking channel isn't needed in my fence to keep them in place so just opted to eliminate that step. I kept them just in case for some reason they get lose, easy to add on later if needed. I attached some photos of the end result looking straight on. But also just the first test panel I did. You can see that looking at them from the left you can see through pretty easy, maybe 65% coverage. Straight on privacy goes up to about 90%. But looking from the right it's 100%. It's kinda like a blind slat just depends on the angle how much you can see through. The slats sit at a slight angle when inserted but that's just the natural angle created by the chain link. Nothing you can do about it but overall I'm very happy with the result and the product. I'm glad I spent more to get a good quality product that offers as much coverage as possible. Time will tell if the fade in the sun, hopefully not. But I'm really happy with how this turned out and love the added privacy! Oh and I'd suggest to measure your panels. I ordered one pkg to test before spending a bunch to do the whole fence. I wanted to make sure I liked it first. Anyway the test section I did used one whole package. So I just counted the remaining panels (8) and ordered more... easy right!? Lol Well each section isn't exactly the same width. I currently have a whole package left...I still have more to do as I work my way up the driveway so they'll get used. But one package does about 10' maybe a few inches more. So I'll be measuring each remaining section so I don't buy more than I need. Overall great quality product, great privacy, highly recommend.

Easy to install and looks great! Very sturdy and offers much privacy.

Tubing is easy to slide into chain link fence. Can be manipulated for privacy from all sides depending on how you slide the tubes in. I love the privacy these SoliTube slats provide especially with the "wings". Thank you!!

I use these for privacy from my nosey neighbors. I glue and screw them to my wood fence. I love it. Very nice good quality.

My neighbor installed a chain link fence with built-in while plastic slats after several of his trees were blown down against the fence in a big wind storm. I have a 10' chain link gate that connects to his fence. I really like the privacy his fence provided so I bought these slats to put in my gate. They were easy to install for the most part (my gate has been in place for about 30 years and the chain link is a little bent in places). Someone mentioned to cut off about a 1/4"-3/8" chamfer from the bottom corners to help in slide in place. It does help. My gate is 6' high and took about 2 hours to install, there are a lot of slats in 10' and a bit of a learning curve. On a newer fence/gate, installation should be a lot quicker I like them so well I bought more to install on the gate on the other side of my home. Privacy was much better than the product description said I could expect -- almost 100%, I have to stick my face up to the gate to see in. Cannot see into my back yard from a foot away. They look good too.

Easy to install, loved the color, bought several packages to cover the neighbors gate, works well for privacy.

I like these inserts. BUT I do not like the shipping they charge on each bundle. Even if you have 4 bundles delivered at the same time. They still charge shipping per bundle. Even when you have Amazon Prime.

Great product for blocking views. A little bit more $ than other designs but it’s the best I’ve seen for the intended purpose. This one is a winner.

Works great. Nowhere near enough base starter strips!
