HEP lattice top semi privacy fence

Deqing Huazhijie Railing & Fencing Co.,Ltd. builds the HEP lattice top semi privacy fence at our facility in Huzhou, near Shanghai, where we have produced PVC fence profiles and PVC flooring since 2003. The HEP is a routed, modular vinyl fence section: a solid lower field of vertical pickets carries the screening, and a decorative lattice band opens the top of the run so it reads lighter against the skyline. We supply the complete section — rails, pickets, lattice, U-channel, posts and caps — plus a matching gate, so a project arrives as one coordinated kit rather than a collection of loose parts.

HEP Lattice Top Semi Privacy Fence: What We Supply

As a HEP Lattice Top Semi Privacy Fence manufacturer, we match product configuration to the application, operating limits, interfaces and acceptance criteria defined for each project.

We are one of the custom HEP lattice top semi privacy fence suppliers working with distributors, contractors and project teams worldwide, and the HEP sits in our semi-private range alongside the alternative and louvered profiles. Standard sections are 72" high and 96" wide, with other heights and widths available when a site calls for them.

Each section carries 13 pickets at 7/8" x 6" x 45" on standard spacing, a 2" x 6" pre-notched bottom rail, 2" x 3-1/2" middle and top rails, and an 11.8" x 90.8" lattice panel. Two 1" x 1" U-channels close the picket field at the edges, and a section occupies 0.166 CBM — the figure we use when planning container loading for bulk orders.

Section Anatomy and What Each Specification Controls

Configuration Options Across the HEP Range

• Height: 72" standard, with other heights to suit screening depth and local fence height limits.
• Width: 96" standard, with narrower or wider bays for irregular runs and slope transitions.
• Post size: 4" x 4" for standard residential runs, 5" x 5" where a heavier line or longer span is wanted.
• Post routing: Line, End, Corner, 3-way or blank, matched to the actual layout rather than a stock pattern.
• Post caps: New England, Flat or Gothic.
• Picket spacing: standard spacing for a denser field, wider spacing where airflow matters more than screening.
• Gates: matching gate fabricated in the same profile, colour and post system.

Application Fit: Where Semi-Privacy Works

The HEP profile suits boundaries where full privacy would feel closed and an open picket fence would leave too much on view. Typical placements are rear and side property lines, garden and courtyard division, estate and community perimeters, and landscaped edges around light commercial sites.

Because the lattice band sits above most seated sightlines, the lower field does the screening work while the top band keeps air moving and reduces the visual mass of a long run. Where a design calls for a different top treatment, the HFA alternative semi privacy fence and the HEC pvc picket top panel fence use the same post and rail logic, so a mixed boundary can be built from one component family.

Material Formulation, Weathering and Structural Reinforcement

HEP components are extruded from 100% virgin PVC with no recycled content and no lead. The formulation uses DuPont TiO2 at 10 parts per 100 to resist chalking, with US or German pigments for colour stability, and the raw materials remain traceable back through the extrusion line.

The bottom rail carries an aluminum insert for commercial-grade strength, and the U-channel closes the picket field — together these details stiffen the section where wind load and picket pull-out are concentrated. Our vinyl fence systems are rated for service from -40°C to 70°C.

Maintenance and Long-Term Serviceability

• Routine cleaning is a garden hose rinse; stubborn marks respond to a mild abrasive cleaner of the type used on fibreglass tubs.
• Paint and graffiti generally lift with ordinary detergent and water, a pressure washer, or paint thinner on tougher marks.
• Individual pickets, rails, lattice panels, U-channels and caps can be replaced without dismantling the full run.
• Finished sections carry a 30-year limited warranty.

Installation, Post Setting and Gate Integration

HEP ships with posts routed and components cut to length, so installation follows the same sequence as a wood fence: set the posts, insert rails into the routed post holes, drop pickets into the rails, then fit the caps. Notched rails seat into the post routing and resist pull-out better than a plain butt joint.

We recommend setting vinyl posts the way wood posts are set locally — where cementing is standard practice in the area, cement the vinyl posts to the same depth. Matching gates are fabricated in the same profile, colour and post system, and we provide installation video guidance for crews working with the system for the first time.

Quality Control, Testing and Compliance Evidence

Production runs through extrusion, cutting, drilling, notching, packing and storage under one roof. An independent quality-control group inspects each extruder's output every hour and pulls additional random checks, which is how wall thickness and colour drift are caught before a batch is packed.

Our certificates include CE, ROHS and UL94, alongside SGS, ASTM, ISO 9001 and TUV Global Manufacturer certification. Documentation for a shipment follows the order through component lists, packing detail and the compliance certificates that apply.

Customization, Documentation and Delivery Scope

We take OEM and ODM work, and our profile library covers more than 500 PVC fence profiles. Custom heights, widths, colours, picket spacing and post routing are developed against the customer's drawing or site plan, and we can quote a single replacement section or a full container programme.

Delivery scope for a standard HEP order covers posts, rails, pickets, lattice, U-channels, post caps and gates, packed for container shipment with section volume used to plan loading. Where a project needs a fully closed field instead of an open top band, our HEB pvc lattice top privacy fence shares the same post and rail platform.

Information We Use to Configure Your Solution

To turn a HEP requirement into a firm configuration and quotation, we work from the following project inputs:

• Total run length and section count, including slope or step changes
• Required height and width, or the local fence height limit that applies
• Post size and routing mix: line, end, corner, 3-way and blank counts
• Gate positions, leaf widths and hinge side
• Colour reference, including any HOA or architectural specification
• Post setting method and local frost depth
• Wind exposure and any structural requirement beyond standard
• Target port, order quantity and required delivery window

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard size of the HEP lattice top semi privacy fence?

Standard sections are 72" high by 96" wide, with 13 pickets at 7/8" x 6" x 45" and an 11.8" x 90.8" lattice top. Other heights and widths are available for projects that need them.

Does the HEP section need painting or sealing?

No. The profile is extruded from 100% virgin PVC with TiO2 for chalking resistance, so colour runs through the material rather than sitting on the surface. Normal cleaning is a garden hose rinse.

Can the HEP fence be supplied with a matching gate?

Yes. Gates are fabricated in the same profile, colour and post system, so the gate line matches the fence line on the same boundary.

How is the bottom rail reinforced?

The 2" x 6" pre-notched bottom rail takes an aluminum insert, and two 1" x 1" U-channels close the picket field at the edges. Both details add stiffness where the section meets wind load.

What colours and certificates are available?

White, Tan, Grey and Cream are standard, with custom colour matching for OEM and ODM orders. Certificates include CE, ROHS and UL94, plus SGS, ASTM, ISO 9001 and TUV Global Manufacturer certification.

Can HEP sections be ordered in mixed heights for one site?

Yes. We route and cut each section to the drawing, so a single order can combine different heights, widths and post configurations for steps, corners and gate returns.
