Tennis and Pickleball Court Fencing - Fence Screens

Description

Windscreens are a great addition to complete any tennis or pickleball court because they offer many benefits including privacy, a solid background, wind reduction and just an overall more enhanced appearance. Let’s face it, bare chain link fences are boring and unappealing and adding fence screen to a tennis or pickleball court is a budget friendly way to make a big impact of the overall aesthetic appearance of your facility without the high costs.

Court Privacy

Adding windscreen to your tennis or pickleball court is a professional touch that creates seclusion and eliminates off court distractions, sunlight, or glare. Fence screens also improves ball visibility during game play by providing a contrasting solid background. Eliminating off-court disruptions offers a better game experience and can help increase reaction and improve player focus.

Court Wind Block

As the name implies, windscreen can create a protective barrier from the wind. Adding Fence screens promotes an even air flow and lessens the effects of crosswinds in open tennis court areas and greatly impacts the quality of a tennis game.

Ordering for a Tennis or Pickleball Court

Unlike other sports facility fences, Tennis court chain link fences are typically 10 ft in height. The most common windscreen height that is ordered for a tennis court is 9 ft high and the screen is installed at the top of the fence leaving a foot at the bottom of the fence. This allows for routine mowing and weed eating without worrying about damaging the fence screens.

Alternatively, some facilities prefer to order 6 ft high windscreens and center the panels on the 10 ft high fence. There is no right or wrong height, Sport Screens are custom made to your specifications. View our page on how to measure and install windscreens for more details.

Keep in mind that if you are ordering fence screens that are over 6 foot in height your screen will have a center reinforcement tab down the center of the panel. Center reinforcement allows the screen to be secured to the middle of the fence to prevent billowing. If your courts are in a high wind area you may also want to consider adding air vents to your panels to take wind stress off your screens and fences.
