ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Black 5 ft x

In this review of the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen the bottom line is clear: this is a practical, heavy duty privacy solution for homeowners and small businesses who need durable screening for chain link or welded wire fences. The reviewer found the fabric and construction deliver on the main promise - long lasting privacy - because the product uses 170 GSM virgin HDPE treated with UV stabilized compounds and extra grommets and reinforced binding that keep the screen secure in windy or wet conditions.

Key Features

• 170 GSM virgin HDPE: The dense, non recycled material offers substantial thickness that resists tearing and holds shape on a fence.
• UV stabilized compounds: Lab tested for long sun exposure, the fabric is formulated to resist drying, fading and degradation for extended outdoor life.
• Actual height and fit: The product measures 4 ft 9 in tall so it fits neatly behind a 5 ft fence without excess material dragging or flapping.
• Privacy performance: The weave blocks roughly 90% of visibility, making it effective for backyard, pool or kennel screening where sightline control matters.
• Reinforced edges and grommets: Extra stainless copper grommets and 3 in reinforced binding at the edges improve wind resistance and make attachment straightforward.
• Versatile uses: Breathable weave lets water and air pass through, so it doubles as a shade or greenhouse cover for plant protection.

Who It's For

This fence screen is suited to homeowners, renters with chain link or welded wire fences, and small commercial sites that need an economical privacy barrier that lasts. It is particularly useful where sun resistance and long term appearance matter, such as pool surrounds, patios, garden perimeters and pet enclosures.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who need an exact 5 ft tall opaque panel (this is actually 4 ft 9 in) or shoppers seeking decorative, non-breathable blackout material; the product prioritizes durability and airflow over total opacity.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High quality 170 GSM virgin HDPE provides strong, durable material that stands up to weather.
• UV stabilized formulation and lab testing indicate longer outdoor life and reduced fading.
• Good privacy with roughly 90% visibility blockage while remaining breathable for plants and drainage.
• Reinforced 3 in bindings and numerous stainless copper grommets make installation secure and reduce wind damage.

Cons

• Actual height is 4 ft 9 in, so buyers expecting a full 5 ft of coverage should account for the slight difference.
• Color and weave remain visible up close, so it is not a total opaque screen for complete visual isolation.
