Bastida Enclosure Panel - Privacy with Air and Water Flow

Bastida Enclosure Panel: the piece that fills the bay

Enclosing a plot usually forces a choice between seeing out and being seen, or building a blind wall that blocks the air and pools water at the base. The Bastida panel solves both: its geometry blocks the view from outside but lets air circulate and water drain away, with a coverage of 10.70 pieces per square metre of enclosure.

✅ Key advantages

  • Privacy with no blind wall: you can't see in from outside; from inside, light and air still get through.
  • Doesn't act as a sail: by letting the wind through, the enclosure takes far less strain than a solid fence of the same height.
  • No waterlogging: rainwater passes through the panel instead of pooling at the base.
  • Two finished faces: the panel is finished front and back, so there's no ugly side to hide from the neighbours.
  • Two combinable designs: the straight panel gives a clean line and the curved one creates a play of light and shadow that changes through the day. They can be alternated in the same run.
  • Guided dry assembly: the panels interlock vertically with each other and seat in the column's toothed profile, with no formwork or welding.

🏗️ Recommended applications

  • Enclosing plots, detached houses and single-family homes.
  • Dividing between neighbours and separating zones within the same property.
  • Building up on an existing block wall to gain height without infilling it.
  • Screening technical areas: pool filtration equipment, bins, washing lines, air-conditioning units.
  • Enclosing pools, sports courts and play areas.

📋 Technical data sheet

  • Material: precast concrete, finished on both faces.
  • Dimensions: 75 × 11 × 12.5 cm (length × width × course height).
  • Coverage: 10.70 pieces per m² of enclosure.
  • Straight panel: 9 kg per unit · 70 units per pallet · 916 kg per pallet.
  • Curved panel: 12 kg per unit · 63 units per pallet · 988 kg per pallet.
  • Colours: white, anthracite and sand.
  • Recommended maximum height: 1.88 m (15 stacked panels) with bays of up to 3.75 m between columns; 2.38 m (19 panels) reducing the bay to 3.00 m.
  • Use: outdoor.

🧩 This panel is one piece of a system

The panel doesn't stand on its own: it's part of a four-piece modular enclosure that's installed together. To build the fence you'll also need:

  • The Bastida multi-angle column (Ø 22 × 17.1 cm): the post. It's stacked piece on piece at a rate of 6 pieces per metre of height, and its toothed profile receives the panel ends. It's multi-angle, so it turns at 45º, 90º, 135º, 180º and 225º to handle corners, kinks and sloping ground.
  • The Bastida panel coping (50 × 20 × 4 cm): caps the last course of panels, reinforces it and diverts water with its drip edge.
  • The Bastida column cap (Ø 28 × 4 cm): caps the column from above so water can't get into the infill.

How many panels you need. Each panel covers 75 cm of bay and 12.5 cm of height per course. A 3.00 m bay between columns is closed with 4 panels per course, and a 3.75 m one with 5 panels per course. Stacking 15 courses reaches 1.88 m in height; with 19 courses you reach 2.38 m, but then the bay must not exceed 3.00 m.

🧰 Installation

  1. Foundation. Dig a trench 35 cm wide by 50 cm deep, place 4 reinforcement bars of 8 mm, and anchor to them the vertical 8 mm bars that will run up inside each column.
  2. Fill and wait. Fill with M-80 grey mortar (minimum 380 kg/m³, i.e. 1 part cement to 4 parts sand), screed level with a straightedge, water it, and let it dry for at least 48 hours.
  3. First course. Wet the pieces before installing them. Bed the first column piece perfectly level and plumb, and from there build up columns and panels at the same time, checking alignment with a straightedge.
  4. Interlocking and reinforcement. Position the panels so they interlock vertically with each other, fill the joint gap with mortar or tile adhesive, and run a 6 mm vertical reinforcing bar at every joint, anchored to the foundation.
  5. Filling the column. Every 6 column pieces, fill the interior with lean M-40 mortar spread evenly. On the last piece, screed it right to the top to avoid the mortar shrinking as it dries.
  6. Curing and capping. The next day, water the work for 2 days and let it dry for a further 48 hours. Then fit the panel copings, cap each column with its cap, and treat the surface with a water repellent for easier cleaning.

💡 Professional tip: the most costly mistake is getting the first column piece out of plumb. Each column is dry-stacked piece on the one below, so a millimetre of lean at the base is multiplied by the 9 or 12 pieces stacked above it: by the top you have a 2 or 3 cm deviation, the panels stop interlocking cleanly into the toothed profile, and the coping no longer sits flat. Level and plumb the first piece with a spirit level in both directions and don't move on until it's perfect. And always order 5% extra panels: corners chip when handling them, and partway through the job there's no guarantee a replacement pallet will match the tone. For the same reason, mix pieces from different pallets as you go, rather than emptying one pallet completely before opening the next.
