Let’s be honest—bins aren’t the most attractive feature in your garden. But with a little creativity and the right garden screens, you don’t have to compromise on style or functionality. At Black Bear Essex, our aluminium and composite screens provide the perfect solution for concealing bins while enhancing the look of your outdoor space.

Why Hide Your Bins?

Bins are a necessary part of everyday life, but they can be unsightly and detract from an otherwise beautiful garden. Hiding them:

Keeps your garden looking tidy and organised
Prevents odours and pests from spoiling the space
Adds privacy for less appealing areas near patios or driveways

Choosing the Right Screens

When selecting a screen to hide bins, consider:

Material: Aluminium and composite screens are durable, weather-resistant, and low-maintenance, making them perfect for outdoor use.
Design: A decorative trellis or slatted design can blend with your garden style while concealing unsightly bins.
Height & Width: Make sure the screen is tall and wide enough to fully hide your bins without looking awkward.

Installation Tips

Position strategically: Place screens along the side of your house or at the end of a pathway.
Easy access: Ensure you can still reach your bins for collection. Our modular fencing systems allow panels to be moved or swapped so functionality isn’t compromised.
Customisable: With over 2,500 colour options and interchangeable panels, your bin screen can match your existing fencing or garden décor perfectly.

Additional Benefits

Using a garden screen to hide bins doesn’t just improve aesthetics. It also:

Adds a decorative element to your outdoor space
Improves property value by creating a neat, well-designed garden
Creates privacy for other less attractive areas of the garden

Conclusion

With a well-designed screen, you can keep your bins out of sight without sacrificing style. At Black Bear Essex, our modular composite and aluminium fencing systems are perfect for hiding bins, enhancing privacy, and adding a touch of elegance to your garden.
