ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Grey 5 ft x 165

Our review of the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen finds it best for homeowners and small commercial sites that need a durable, high-coverage privacy solution on chain link or wire fences. The single biggest reason to buy is the material quality: this screen is made from 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE with UV stabilized compound that the maker says passed 20,000 hours of lab UV testing, so it truly feels engineered to resist fading and tearing where cheaper recycled alternatives fail.

Key Features

• 170 GSM Virgin HDPE: Thick non-recycled material offers noticeably better resilience against sunlight and wear compared with common recycled screens.
• UV Stabilized Compound: Fabric treatment reduces drying, tearing and fading after long exposure, extending useful service life outdoors.
• Actual Fit: The screen measures an effective 4 ft 9 in height to fit cleanly on a 5 ft fence without awkward overhang.
• Privacy Performance: Designed to block about 90% of visibility, it provides strong visual screening for backyards, pools, patios and construction areas.
• Reinforced Edges and Grommets: Stainless copper grommets and 3 in reinforced binding placed frequently along edges help the screen hold up under wind loads.
• Multiuse Shade and Protection: Breathable weave lets air and water pass, so it doubles as shade cloth for gardens, kennels or greenhouse cover.

Who It's For

This fence screen suits homeowners, landscapers and property managers who want an economical, long-lasting privacy barrier on chain link or welded wire fences without replacing the fence itself. It is especially good when sun exposure is a concern and a higher grade material will pay off over time.

It is not ideal for someone seeking a solid, non-breathable blackout barrier; the fabric is porous by design to allow drainage and airflow. Also, buyers who need a decorative fabric with detailed patterns should consider ornamental options instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High-quality 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE resists UV damage and holds up over seasons.
• Approximately 90% visibility blockage provides strong privacy for yards and pools.
• Extra stainless grommets and wide reinforced binding improve wind resistance and attachment strength.

Cons

• The screen is breathable by design, so it will not provide a total opaque blackout effect.
