A solid barrier, sound partition and privacy fence system including a plurality of interconnected fence panels whose ends are adapted to fit to pre-existing fence posts. The ends of the fence panels include attachment structure for releasably securing adjacent fence panels to one another around an existing fence post. The privacy fence system provides for installing a privacy fence that reuses existing cement anchored fence posts. The attachment structure may comprise either an interlocking fastening device or a threaded fastening device. The privacy fence may also include an optional fence post cap that is attached to the top portion of the existing poles. Each fence panel is constructed of a lightweight, one piece, molded material.

The invention claimed is: 1. A barrier system having pre-existing fence posts comprising: a first one-piece, molded fence panel presenting a continuous surface and having a first end and a second end; a second one-piece, molded fence panel presenting a continuous surface and having a first end and a second end; each of said first and second panels having a plurality of vertically oriented rib walls and segmented horizontal spacers formed each of said first and second ends of each said panel; a cavity formed in each first end and being defined by said rib walls and said horizontal segments, whereby said first end of each panel is adapted to fit around a respective pre-existing fence post; first releasable attachment structure disposed on said first end of said first fence panel; second releasable attachment structure disposed on said first end of said second fence panel, whereby adjacent panels are adapted to be releasably secured to said respective pre-existing post; and said second end of each said first fence panel and said second end of each said second fence panel being designed and configured to be interconnected having an overlapping distal end portion configured differently than said first ends and providing a substantially planar flush fitting engagement therebetween, whereby a barrier system is formed by said plurality of first and second fence panels being connected alternately by said first ends and said second ends, respectively, with the elongated cavities formed by the post receiving slots of the connected first ends of said first and second fence panels fitted around pre-existing fence posts. 2. The barrier system according to claim 1, including a post cap releasably secured to each of said pre-existing fence posts. 3. The barrier system according to claim 1, wherein each of said first ends has a predetermined height and each of said cavities being coextensive with said height. 4. The barrier system according to claim 1, wherein said rib walls and horizontal spacers further define slots. 5. The barrier system according to claim 4, wherein each of said fence panels presents a continuous flat planar surface throughout said height and further includes a vertically oriented reinforcing strut disposed on the flat planar surface of each of said panels substantially throughout said height.
