If you have a deck or are planning on constructing a deck, then consider installing wood lattice or plastic 
lattice as an accent or barrier.
Installing lattice on your deck is a great way to accent your outdoor living area and add privacy. Commonly used as skirting, lattice is a perfect solution for keeping pets and other animals from digging or nesting under the deck. Adding lattice to your composite lumber deck or pressure treated decking frame also allows you to create a hidden storage area and helps conceal the otherwise exposed wood deck support posts.
Lattice can be used in a variety of ways—from decorative to practical. Other common uses include:
Plastic lattice and pressure treated wood lattice are typically sold in 4x8 sheets in both large and small diamond or square patterns. Plastic lattice comes in many different colors to complement your deck or home. Most big box retailers carry lattice in a variety of colors and styles.
Add a custom color to wood lattice by applying exterior paint or stain to the surface. If you have a treated lumber deck that has been stained, be sure to apply a matching or complementary stain on newly installed lattice.
Installing lattice is a simple DIY project that is very affordable and won’t take all day to install.
