How tall can they be?

Final height depends on the site, the support strategy, and any jurisdiction or property constraints that apply to the project.

Do they look realistic?

We use premium polyethylene foliage with layered tone and texture. Final realism depends on product selection, density, framing, and how the system is detailed on site.

How are they attached?

Custom steel/aluminum frames mount to walls, fences, or freestanding bases. Hardware is concealed.

Are they fire resistant?

Certified to NFPA 701 Method 2.

Privacy Hedge

Artificial Privacy Hedge

Name: Privacy Hedge
Brand: Califauxscapes

Dense hedge textures for architectural privacy and screening

Artificial privacy hedge systems are often used when a project needs dense screening with a polished landscape finish. Califauxscapes tailors tone, panel composition, density, and framing to each site rather than using one fixed template.

Quick answer

What is a artificial privacy hedge and when does it make sense?

An artificial privacy hedge is a dense screening system used where a project needs a hedge look with immediate coverage and controlled maintenance.

Best fit: Property-line privacy and patio screening; Hospitality and event spaces that need a finished green edge; High-end residential scopes where hedge consistency matters
Less ideal when: It still needs the right base structure, planter, or mounting strategy to perform well. It is not a substitute for correcting site drainage, grade, or failing wall conditions.
Service area: Califauxscapes currently focuses on Southern California, the Bay Area, and the Inland Empire.

Scope considerations

Color and texture sampling is recommended before large-area commitments.

Panel transitions at corners and gate openings need early detailing.

Final density should balance privacy goals with airflow and daylight preferences.

Warranty is limited and subject to product scope, care, and installation terms.

When this system is usually not the first recommendation

It still needs the right base structure, planter, or mounting strategy to perform well.

It is not a substitute for correcting site drainage, grade, or failing wall conditions.
