ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Beige 5 ft x 17

In this review the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen is recommended for homeowners and property managers who need a high-durability privacy solution that fits a 5 ft fence. The bottom line: this fence screen stands out because it uses heavy duty 170 GSM virgin HDPE with UV stabilization, which delivers noticeably better resistance to sun damage and tearing than recycled alternatives. Installation is straightforward with the included cable zip ties and plentiful stainless grommets, making it a practical choice for long-term outdoor privacy.

Key Features

• Material: Made from 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE which provides a thicker, stronger weave than many screens on the market for longer lasting performance.
• UV Protection: Fabric treated with a UV stabilized compound and tested for 20000 hours to resist drying, tearing and fading under prolonged sun exposure.
• Fit: Actual height is 4 ft 9 in so it fits snugly on a 5 ft fence while still tucking under top rails for a neat appearance.
• Privacy: Blocks approximately 90% of visibility, making it effective for screening yards, pools, patios and kennel areas from view.
• Reinforced Edges: Black 3 in reinforced binding and numerous stainless grommets placed 12 in vertically and 24 in horizontally help the screen hold up in windy conditions.
• Versatile Use: Breathable weave allows water and air through so it can also function as shade cloth, greenhouse cover or wind break for plants.

Who It's For

This fence screen is a good match for people who want a sturdy, long-lasting privacy barrier for chain link or cyclone wire fences, pool areas, patios and pet kennels. It is especially suited to buyers who care about UV longevity and prefer non-recycled virgin HDPE for strength and appearance.

It may be less suitable for someone who needs a very tall privacy wall (the panel is sized to work with 5 ft fences) or for those who want a completely solid, non-porous barrier; the fabric is porous by design to allow airflow and drainage.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High durability from 170 GSM virgin HDPE and extended UV testing keeps the fabric from fading and tearing.
• Excellent privacy with about 90% visibility blockage while still permitting airflow and water drainage.
• Strong edges and extra stainless grommets make installation secure and improve wind resistance.
• Easy to install using the included cable zip ties and works on many fence types.

Cons

• Actual height is 4 ft 9 in, so buyers needing a full 5 ft solid panel should account for the 3 in difference on taller applications.
• Porous construction is not a fully opaque, solid barrier if total sightline elimination is required.
