Use the EZ Louver Spacers for longer slats to achieve a flawless, professional-grade result that stands the test of time.
Select the optimal spacer set based on the thickness of your slat material.
CHECK YOUR SPECIFIC SLAT MATERIAL for the ACTUAL THICKNESS!
5/8" Picket: Standard wood pickets are 5/8" thick and will work best with the Picket Spacer Sets.
1"x6" Spacer Sets: Designed for a "nominal" 3/4" thickness. Some premium pickets are actually 3/4", so check the thickness of your slats.
5/4" Deck Boards: Referred to as 5/4" but the nominal thickness is 1". For 1" thickness, whether you're using wood or composite, the Deck Board Spacer Set is your option.
Engineered to add structural strength, the spacer locks in perfect slat spacing, preventing warping, sagging, and twisting of slats.
Eight-foot spans allow you to use standard uncut 8-foot slats, thereby reducing the number of posts required. This saves times, effort, and expense while reducing waste.
Key Benefits:
Reduce Project Costs: Drastically cut down the number of expensive posts needed for your project and the time and hard work of installing posts.
Eliminate Cutting & Waste: Build with 8' spans that allow you to use full-length 8' lumber, eliminating cutting time and preventing material waste.
Save Valuable Time: Eliminate guesswork, extra trips to the hardware store, and hours of labor cutting slats and setting posts.
Increase Project Stability: Beneficial for all slat lengths 5' and longer, the slat spacer provides critical reinforcement to prevent sagging, twisting, and warping.
Pro-Grade Materials & Finish: Spacers are made from structural 6061-T6 aluminum. The black spacers are protected by a rugged, powder-coated black matte finish.
Spacer Screws for Easily Installing Spacers
Tiny Head Ceramic Coated Corrosion-Resistant Exterior Wood Screws are a premium exterior screw designed for easily and quickly installing Slat Spacers. They feature a corrosion-resistant bronze ceramic coating to ensure they last, even in harsh weather (best-in-class corrosion resistance exceeds the 1,000-hour ASTM salt spray test).
Forget pre-drilling. The advanced self-starting tip and coarse threads mean no pilot hole is needed. The design minimizes wood splitting compared to standard screws. A tiny head provides a flush fit and minimum visibility.
The T-15 Star (Torx) drive and ceramic coating makes the screw stay on the head of your screwdriver and prevents stripping. A T-15 driver bit is included with your order of Spacer Sets.
Fencing Solution That is Tough, Sleek, and Built to Last
The EZ Louver brackets come in pairs. Designed to simplify installation, this bracket lets you mount slats with precision and ease.
The black powder-coated version not only offers a clean, contemporary look, but also provides added corrosion resistance for outdoor use in all climates.
Whether you’re building a backyard retreat or a custom architectural feature, the EZ Louver bracket gives you pro-level results without the complexity.

Do I need EZ Louver spacers, and how do they work?
If your sections are longer than 5-feet, or if your material needs additional support, consider using the spacers. They are installed between slats to provide additional structural support and prevent warping or twisting. Each set comes with spacers and the screws that are needed for installation. A short spacer installation video is available.
What is the maximum length of a louvered fence panel that can be created using EZ Louver brackets?
We recommend constructing louvered sections that are five feet or less in length using EZ Louver brackets.
For longer sections, we have designed spacers to provide additional structural strength and stability. Our spacer sets provide both the spacers and the screws needed to install them.
Can I use composite or other non-wood slats?
Yes, you can use composite, aluminum, or any other non-wood material for your louvered fence. The brackets are designed to accommodate various materials and sizes from ½” to 5/4” thick.
How easy is the installation process?
It’s incredibly straightforward and requires no advanced carpentry skills. Typical tools like a level, measuring tape, saw, and drill are required. The general process is:
Fasten the brackets securely to your level posts.
Attach a front fascia or cover board.
Slide your chosen slats directly into place.
Attach slats to the brackets.
Watch the 90-second installation video to see for yourself!
How long does it typically take to install a louvered fence?
About the same amount of time as any other fence. The installation time depends on factors like the size of your property, ground conditions, weather, availability of materials, accuracy, and planning.
For louvered fences, having the distance between posts be the same as the slat material you purchase saves time. So does having the posts be level.
If you hire a contractor, their specific fence company's schedule. Your installer can give you an accurate timeline based on your property's requirements.
