ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Black 5ft x

In this review of the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Black 5' x 195' the bottom line is clear: this is a practical privacy solution for anyone who needs a durable, long-lasting fence cover. The reviewer found the single biggest reason to buy is the heavy duty 170 GSM virgin HDPE fabric that resists fading and tearing after extensive UV testing, making it suited to sun-exposed outdoor fences. Installation is straightforward with the included cable zip ties and the reinforced grommets make it hold up in windier spots.

Key Features

• 170 GSM virgin HDPE: The thick, non-recycled material provides a noticeably sturdier feel and better wear resistance than thinner alternatives.
• UV stabilized compounds: Lab-tested for 20000 hours so the fabric resists fading and drying out under prolonged sun exposure.
• Actual fit for 5 ft fences: With an actual height of 4' 9" the screen fits neatly on most 5 ft fences without excessive trimming.
• Reinforced grommets and binding: Stainless copper grommets placed every 12 in vertically and 24 in horizontally with a 3 in edge binding improve wind resistance and longevity.
• High privacy blockage: The woven material blocks about 90% of visibility, making it effective for back yards, pools, and pet enclosures.
• Versatile use: Breathable weaving allows water and air through, so it doubles as shade cloth for gardens, greenhouses, or nursery areas.

Who It's For

This fence screen is best for homeowners and property managers who want an economical, durable privacy solution for chain link, cyclone, or welded wire fences. It suits people who prioritize long-term UV resistance and a clean appearance when fitted to a standard 5 ft fence.

It is less appropriate for those who need an exact 5' 0" tall opaque panel without any breathability or for buyers seeking decorative patterns rather than a solid privacy cover. Also, if a fully solid, non-porous barrier is required for total wind or sound blocking, a different product may be better.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High-quality 170 GSM virgin HDPE gives a robust feel and longer life under sun exposure.
• Well-placed stainless copper grommets and reinforced 3 in binding improve durability and simplify installation.
• Blocks about 90% of visibility for good privacy while remaining breathable for plants and pools.
• Includes cable zip ties and comes with a limited 3 year warranty for normal use.

Cons

• The actual height is 4' 9" so some users expecting a full 5' 0" may need to accept a slightly shorter fit.
• The fabric is porous by design, so it reduces but does not completely stop wind or water flow.
