Infill
Definition
In fencing, infill refers to any material used to fill the open space within a fence frame. Types include: (1) powder-coated steel infill panels added between ornamental steel rails to increase privacy; (2) plastic privacy slats woven through chain link diamond mesh (80–95% visibility reduction); (3) AZEK cellular PVC trim used to close ground-level and side gaps where fence panels terminate. Infill is a key service opportunity — it gives customers a way to upgrade privacy on an existing fence without full replacement.
