Fence Dilemma - help DH and settle this!

[shanode]

Hi Sandy,

Yes: you have a regular 6' fence, but there's an 8' wide section that's now 11-1/2' tall (due to the added lattice).

Sort of: And you'd like to take another 9' section of fence (3 panels x 3' wide) and make it 8' tall with bamboo panels. Is that right?

Explanation: The 8' wide section is the only section I'm working with. I'd like to put the bamboo panels on that section, from a height of 3 1/2' to the top. I realize that I will have an 'extra' foot of width; I will deal with that separately.

Neighbors house is a BIG two story.
Their sliding glass door is about 15 feet from the fence.
They are almost always home during the day on the weekend.
No restrictions.
Also - I've spoken to them and they don't care.
Also - Their lots sits a little higher than ours.

Sandy, thanks for your reply!

A little different approach. I went to a marine canvas company and explained what I wanted (similiar to your problem). Run pipes up fence posts to desired height, about 20' apart. Attach steel cable at the top of pipe and at the top of the fence. The marine company had boat railing panel material. Mesh/small holes in canvas type material. They would put eyelets in top and bottom to run cable thru. I could take it down for winter.
