Willow Wheelie Bin Screen (Double)

Product Information

Each triple screen measures 115cm (H) x 180cm (W) x 80cm (D) (3ft 7in x 5ft 9in x 2ft 6in) , so it’s large enough to hide your wheelie bins from view without any fuss This wheelie bin screen can help keep your driveway looking smart, keeping plastic bins covered up with an attractive willow panel. One of the sturdiest, strongest, and most secure free-standing (although can be fixed to the ground) wheelie bin storage units on the market today is the BillyOh Metal Wheelie Bin Store. The panels are hinged allowing you to easily access your bins if you need to relocate them or if you just want to put the rubbish out. Each comes with its own set of wall hooks. These are used if you wish to anchor the panels onto a wall or the side of your home. Probably the most common option is to use a bin screen. A screen will usually be wooden (or perhaps raffia-style), will be anchored into the ground in some way (meaning they can't be installed on concrete, unfortunately), and will hide your bins from sight. This is the more expensive of the two options and requires a bit more work on your part, but a good screen can really disguise those bins.

If a contemporary design is your kind of style, a red cedar bin store may be just the thing for you. Red cedar is an excellent choice for a bin store, as it’s durable in damp climates. You can trust that your cedar bin store won’t decay, shrink, warp, or swell, even in the most severe weather conditions. Making sure the hook sides of the panels are on the outside; they can be latched on and secured until the bins are required for usage. Complete with the bin screens are 2 x 60cm s 180cm expanding willow trellises which can be used to complete the screening of waste storage area A contemporary fence panel often used as screening; Venetian is made using horizontal pales with 15mm spaces between them. The view through the panel is not completely distorted but the panel will distract from what is behind.

It's not impossible to erect a screen on concrete but it's can be difficult without a wall to hold it against, so that might be something to think about. Want to conceal your unsightly wheelie bins but aren’t sure how? I hear you. Wheelie bin storage offers a range of benefits, keeping our wheelie bins out of view, ensuring they’re secure, and protecting them from wind damage and pests. Planning regulations force many homes to have a shorter fence at the front of their house, so even using a solid fence panel that allows no line of sight through the panel would probably not work for hiding standard height wheelie bins. If you have a wall at the front of your house and have permission to increase the height to provide more screening, slatted fence panels are a great option as they still allow light into the house. Our Jakpost® foot allows you to install fencing onto existing hard surfaces with ease. If you want to know how to increase the height of an existing boundary you can read our blog here. Hiding bins with a wheelie bin store This elegant looking ‘wood’ effect double wheelie bin storage unit from ‘Keter’ is capable of holding 2 x 240 L wheelie bins or 1 bin and other suitable garden equipment, like plastic chairs or garden B-B-Q for example. It’s a nice darkish colour and is made from natural woven material, but it has a steel frame which keeps it sturdy and supported. You can barely see the metal support too, so it just fits nicely in a garden by bringing a natural look to it. This will fit in most gardens in terms of how it looks, I would say unless you’ve got lots of stone features, then this is a screen which will fit in easily into your garden. It’s not too big either, and it even comes as separate panels that are hinged and connect at different angles, so you can modify it so that it fits your bins area nicely.

This should certainly be your first question. How much are you willing to spend? Be reasonable, be realistic, and don't spend more than you can afford. Since covers are usually cheaper than screens, your budget may determine which solution is right for you. What Kind of Commitment Do You Want? Pallet wood is an excellent material to use if you choose to create wheelie bin storage yourself, as it’s cheap, environmentally friendly, and waterproof – it won’t warp and bend so long as it’s been treated! You could fix pallet wood planks to a metal frame, like below, or secure pallets together as they are to create a rustic-looking bin storage solution. The trellis included is extendable, stretching to a maximum of three metres, so you'll have plenty of space. There are no side panels, so getting bins in and out is easy. You can easily secure the screen either to the ground (you'll need to buy anchor supports though), or to a wall or existing fence. And since this is all fake, there's zero maintenance required. Venetian is a great fence panel to combine with climbing plants, as the vines will intertwine around the pales creating a green screen, which will eventually conceal what is behind. It can get really annoying when you do up the garden or the house and no matter how nice you get it looking, your wheelie bins just end up ruining it. Everyone knows this struggle and it takes away all the effort you put in, so it’s always good to find some suitable cover or item that hides away your bins and even better, blends in with the garden.Best For: Those with a higher budget, those willing to do a little work to really hide their bins away Bin Covers / Vinyls In our final spot is another sturdy and reliable wheelie bin screen, but the reason it’s in last place is because it doesn’t really offer anything extra that isn’t already covered in the products above. It’s got similar attributes to a wheelie bin storage shed but it doesn’t do the name much justice, as its thin polyester material makes it more suited to act as a screen.

Yet, it can be challenging to know what options are out there and what style of wheelie bin storage you should choose to suit your garden. Due to its construction materials the cabinet requires no maintenance year on year. So once erected this wheelie bin storage unit can be left and admired, as it does not look out of place in any garden. The screens are made from 4 separate woven willow panels which are connected by ‘easy to attach hooks’ so they can be easily removed if necessary. Made from natural woven willow with a strong metal framework, this screen will give you years of service while hiding what’s behind it. Personally I’m a massive fan of the wood effect in my garden as it really does make things look more natural, but for how light weight it is and its material, it’s really strong and I don’t worry about it falling over or standing. It’s really versatile and is a pleasure to put up, and I’ve had no issues with it so far. The only thing that concerned me was maybe how it will last in harsh weather or when it gets dirty, but since its natural material unlike most other screens, it should be fine. After a closer look I also realised I could just apply a wood preserver, and because it’s wooden, a couple of screws into the wall were dead easy to secure it even more. This might not have been necessary at all and I’m sure it will last absolutely fine, but it just gave me that piece of mind.

Barriers

One small feature we did like was the fact that the wheelie bin store was ventilated, which provided good air circulation and avoids damp and or condensation forming. Stationary wheelie bin stores are great, but what if you want to move them? Adding wheels to your bin storage is the ideal solution for those tight on space or who like to change their mind often. This portable bin screen is just like any other, with the added benefit of flexibility.

You should now have a better idea of what exactly you should be shopping for. However, you still might find that there are lots of models to choose from. So we've got some top recommendations to get you started! Gr8 Garden Patio Willow Screen (Screen)
