If you’ve chosen an artificial hedge to enhance privacy, add decorative appeal, or block unwanted views, you’re making a practical decision. Artificial privacy screening is easy to maintain and straightforward to install. You’ll find two main types of synthetic foliage: strand-style privacy screens and roll-style privacy screens.
Both options are designed so each side looks the same, making installation easier and ensuring a consistent appearance. For a successful setup, consider the type of surface you’ll attach the screen to, as well as the right tools and accessories.
Can you install an artificial hedge on any surface?
Strand-style privacy screens work well on balconies. When attached to a wire mesh fence, they provide excellent coverage, especially if the strands are closely spaced. This ensures the fence is fully concealed. Roll-style synthetic screens are easy to cut and fit onto walls, pool fences, facades, or railings. For a secure fit, make sure to use the appropriate installation accessories.
Zip ties: A simple solution for securing synthetic privacy screens
Zip ties offer a practical and cost-effective way to attach an artificial hedge, green wall, or synthetic foliage to a wire mesh fence. If you want to save time and finish your installation quickly, opt for self-locking zip ties. These typically come in packs of 50 black plastic ties. Their discreet color blends in with most artificial hedges. Each tie measures 5.5 inches in length and provides strong, lasting support once fastened.

Automatic twister tool: An essential fastening accessory
The twister tool is a popular choice for securing artificial hedges. It’s also suitable for PVC screens, synthetic panels, walls, slats, and natural fences. This tool uses a metal tie with a loop for twisting. Due to its efficiency and time-saving design, it’s typically priced higher than other installation accessories.
The twister tool is valued for its ability to speed up installation. While artificial hedges are most often used outdoors to protect privacy or define property lines, they can also serve as indoor decor.
