Aluminium Privacy Screens in Cottesloe
Give your Cottesloe project the warmth of timber without the upkeep, with a screen suited to the Mediterranean climate.
Aluminium Privacy Screens in Cottesloe
Long, hot, dry summers with serious UV are what bleach and crack an oiled timber finish - it dries out, checks, and asks for another coat every year or two. That is the weather Cottesloe and the Greater Perth serve up most years, and it is why Woodonali supplies woodgrain aluminium privacy screens here in aluminium: the woodgrain is baked into a UV-stable powder coat, so it neither dries nor fades, and it never needs re-oiling.
Salt-laden air finds every weakness in an external finish, and around Cottesloe 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.
Cottesloe sits inside our metro delivery run, so getting product to site is straightforward and the freight line is itemised in the AUD quote - no surprises after you commit.
Why woodgrain aluminium suits Cottesloe
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.
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.
Built for the Mediterranean climate
In Cottesloe, you can expect hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters. Because our products are aluminium rather than wood, the finish shrugs off UV and never needs re-oiling between seasons.
The sublimated woodgrain finish is baked into an architectural powder coat and stays UV-stable through the strongest sun Western Australia can throw at it, so your Cottesloe screen keeps its timber look with no oiling, staining or repainting - just an occasional wash.

Privacy Screens in Cottesloe: common questions
- Can the finish take long, dry summer heat?
- Yes. The powder-coated woodgrain is engineered for UV stability, and the aluminium underneath cannot dry out, crack or check the way oiled timber does over a hot, dry summer.
- Does it need re-oiling between seasons?
- No. There is no oil in the system at all. The finish is baked on, so the after-summer maintenance that timber demands is simply not part of owning it.
- Will salt air corrode the boards?
- The substrate is marine-grade aluminium, specified for coastal exposure. It does not rust like steel, and a periodic fresh-water rinse keeps salt build-up from dulling the finish.
- 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.
