Purchased this fence for my mother who lives in a senior apartment building - she is on the first floor and has a small patio which she enjoys, however it is right by the front door of the building and while she has some bushes they don't provide much privacy from all the foot traffic near the entrance. This fence is working great by giving her a little more privacy as she sits on the patio. Since the fence is only 4 feet high it doesn't completely block her view of the front year but is just right to minimize people looking over while she, or we, have dinner on her patio in the summer. The panels are 23" each - and of course there is a small gap between them. It would be great if you could order panes individually to get the length you need but that is not an option.
I was very pleased with the quality of the product - very attractive and good build quality. The product was very easy to assemble. We did not mount this permanently to any flooring or other items - it is essentially free standing and we bought some four foot steel stakes which we pounded about a food into the ground and simply used some of those plastic ties to secure the fence to the steel rods - which worked out great and is secure. Since this is an apartment we can't install it permanently. While they do provide the hardware to mount it to a wooden deck - I really don't know how secure it would be.
To assemble you simply put screw the round hooks into the pre-drilled holes and attach the fasteners - it was very easy.
