    What Is the Seaside Horizontal Louvered Semi-Private Vinyl Fence?

    The Catalyst Seaside Horizontal Louvered Semi-Private Vinyl Fence is a 6' tall x 6' wide fence panel that uses angled horizontal louvers to create privacy while still capturing every breeze. Each panel features thirteen 3/4" x 6" x 70" louvered boards set inside routed posts, reducing direct sightlines into your yard while allowing filtered light and airflow. Offered here in a smooth White finish, Seaside delivers a clean, coastal-inspired look that works beautifully around patios, pools, and open backyards.

    Benefits of the Seaside Fence

    • Semi-Private Louvered Design: The angled louvers block most direct views into your space, giving you privacy without closing off your yard. You get more screening than a traditional picket fence, but without the heavy, solid-wall feel of full privacy panels.
    • Built for Wind and Warm-Weather Environments: Seaside’s slatted design allows air to move through the fence, reducing wind pressure on the panels. This makes it an excellent choice for windy or warm climates, especially in coastal regions where strong breezes and sun exposure are common.
    • Clean, Coastal Aesthetic: The horizontal louvers create a modern, beach-inspired look that pairs well with contemporary homes, coastal cottages, and outdoor living spaces. The smooth White finish complements landscaping, decking, and pool surrounds without competing with your overall design.
    • Consistent, Engineered Panel Layout: Each 6' x 6' panel uses thirteen evenly spaced louvers, providing a uniform appearance across long runs. The design helps maintain a consistent level of privacy and airflow from section to section.
    • Durable, Low-Maintenance Vinyl: Seaside panels are made from high-performance vinyl that will not rot, peel, or splinter like wood. There is no need for painting or staining—an occasional rinse with a hose or a mild soap-and-water wash keeps the fence looking fresh.
    • Matched System Components: The Seaside line includes routed posts and matching walk and drive gates designed to work with the 6' x 6' louvered panels. This system approach helps ensure proper fit, consistent performance, and a finished, professional look.
    • Backed by a Transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty: As part of the Catalyst vinyl program, Seaside is covered by a transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty when installed to manufacturer guidelines, adding long-term value and peace of mind.

    Common Uses for the Seaside Fence

    Seaside is especially popular in backyards, pool and spa environments, and patio areas where airflow and comfort are just as important as privacy. Homeowners often use it along property lines in windy or coastal regions, around outdoor seating and dining spaces, and as a design-forward screen for HVAC units or service areas. Its louvered, semi-private design makes it a strong option anywhere you want filtered views, strong ventilation, and a modern coastal look.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: What size and color is the Seaside panel offered in here?

    A: On this site, Seaside is offered as a 6' Tall x 6' Wide semi-private horizontal louvered fence panel in White. Other colors listed in some literature are being discontinued by the manufacturer and are not part of our standard offering.

    Q: Is the Seaside fence fully private?

    A: No. Seaside is a semi-private fence. The angled louvers significantly reduce direct views into your yard, but small openings between boards still allow light and air to pass through. It’s ideal when you want privacy with strong ventilation.

    Q: Where is a louvered fence like Seaside commonly used?

    A: Louvered fences are commonly used around pools, patios, and outdoor living areas where airflow and comfort are important. Seaside also works well along side and rear property lines in warm or windy climates, and in coastal-style landscapes where a horizontal slatted look fits the architecture.

    Q: How many boards are in each Seaside panel?

    A: Each 6' x 6' Seaside panel uses thirteen horizontal louvered boards that are approximately 3/4" x 6" x 70". The boards are set at a consistent angle to balance privacy and airflow.

    Q: What posts and accessories should I use with Seaside?

    A: Seaside panels are designed to work with 5" x 5" routed vinyl posts matched to the louver layout, along with compatible walk and drive gates and your choice of post caps. Using system-specific posts and hardware helps maintain performance and a clean finished appearance.

    Q: How much maintenance does a Seaside vinyl fence require?

    A: Maintenance is minimal. The White vinyl surface does not need painting or staining; most homeowners simply rinse the fence with a garden hose or wash it occasionally with mild soap and water to remove surface dirt or salt residue.
