Aluminium Privacy Screens in Frankston
For Frankston builders and owners who want the timber look without the timber maintenance cycle.
Aluminium Privacy Screens in Frankston
Woodonali supplies woodgrain aluminium privacy screens to Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. A temperate climate sounds gentle, but four real seasons mean constant movement in natural timber - swelling through the cool, wet winters, shrinking through warm summers, joints loosening a little more each year. Aluminium barely moves with temperature and absorbs no moisture, so the screen stays tight and straight without the seasonal upkeep.
Salt-laden air finds every weakness in an external finish, and around Frankston it never stops arriving. Marine-grade alloy answers that at the substrate level - corrosion resistance in the metal itself, not just the coating - which is why a woodgrain aluminium screen keeps its look in coastal conditions that strip timber and rust steel.
We deliver into Frankston on a scheduled run. The quote is in AUD, freight included, based on your drawings or measurements - so the figure you see is the figure you plan around.
Why woodgrain aluminium suits Frankston
Made to measure
Screens are fabricated to your openings, boundary heights and fixing conditions for a tailored finish.
Privacy plus ventilation
Tune batten gaps to block sightlines while keeping air moving through outdoor areas.
Coastal and UV ready
Marine-grade alloy and a baked finish handle salt air and strong sun without corroding or fading.
Non-combustible
An aluminium substrate suits bushfire-prone boundaries and compliant builds.
Lightweight and strong
Screens stay rigid over wide spans without the bulk of timber framing.
No upkeep
No staining or sealing - just an occasional wash.
Built for the temperate climate
In Frankston, you can expect four distinct seasons, with warm summers and cool, wet winters. Because our products are aluminium rather than wood, the boards stay dimensionally stable, so joints stay tight and lines stay straight year-round.
The sublimated woodgrain finish is baked into an architectural powder coat and stays UV-stable through the strongest sun Victoria can throw at it, so your Frankston screen keeps its timber look with no oiling, staining or repainting - just an occasional wash.

Privacy Screens in Frankston: common questions
- Does seasonal movement affect the boards?
- Barely. Aluminium's thermal movement is small and predictable, and it absorbs no moisture, so the swell-shrink cycle that loosens timber joints over the years simply does not happen.
- Will it fade over years of summer sun?
- The woodgrain is baked into a UV-stable coating engineered for exterior use. It holds its colour well beyond what oiled or stained timber manages in the same exposure.
- What maintenance does a coastal installation need?
- A fresh-water wash on a regular basis - more often the closer you are to the surf - to rinse salt off. There is no re-oiling, no rust treatment and no greying to sand back.
- Do they suit coastal properties?
- Marine-grade aluminium is ideal near the coast where salt air corrodes steel and weathers timber quickly.
- How private are they?
- That is set by batten width and spacing. Tighter spacing blocks more of the view; we can spec the right balance for your sightlines.
- How high can a privacy screen be?
- Screen heights are made to suit your needs, but local council and fencing rules may apply on boundaries. We can build to the height your project allows.
- Can screens double as a gate?
- Yes. Matching gates are a common addition so the whole boundary reads as one continuous timber-look line.
