ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Grey 5ft x 13ft

In this review of the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Grey 5' x 13' the bottom line is simple: this is a practical, heavy duty privacy solution for homeowners and property managers who need reliable coverage for chain link or wire fences. The reviewer found the material and construction to be the single biggest reason to buy, because the 170 GSM virgin HDPE fabric is noticeably thicker and treated with UV stabilized compounds, which promises longer life and makes it work well where sun and weather are a concern.

Key Features

• Material: 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE provides a thicker, stronger fabric that resists tearing and sagging compared with thinner alternatives.
• UV Protection: Fabric treated with UV stabilized compounds and tested for prolonged sun exposure, which helps prevent fading and drying out.
• Privacy: Designed to block about 90% of visibility, it creates a dependable visual barrier on chain link, cyclone wire and similar fences.
• Reinforcement: Extra stainless grommets and reinforced 3-inch binding on edges improve wind resistance and attachment durability.
• Fit: Actual height is 4' 9", which is intended to fit neatly on a 5 ft fence without excess material dragging or flapping.
• Versatility: Breathable weave lets water and air pass through, so it doubles as shade, greenhouse cover or kennel shade while remaining low maintenance.

Who It's For

This fence screen is best suited to homeowners, gardeners and small commercial sites that want a cost-effective way to add privacy to chain link, welded wire or cyclone fences while keeping airflow. It is also a good option for pet enclosures, pool privacy and screening construction or storage areas where durability matters.

Those who need absolute blackout coverage or a decorative fabric on a wood privacy fence should look elsewhere, as this product is a porous, functional screen optimized for visibility blockage and weather resistance rather than ornamental design or total light blocking.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Thick 170 GSM virgin HDPE construction gives a durable, long-lasting feel and stands up better to sun exposure.
• High privacy performance, blocking roughly 90% of visibility for effective screening.
• Stainless grommets and heavy binding make installation secure and help resist wind damage.
• Breathable fabric allows water and air through, useful for plants and pool areas without trapping moisture.

Cons

• Height is 4' 9" to fit a 5 ft fence, so buyers must confirm sizing carefully to ensure the intended look and fit.
• Porous weave provides privacy but not complete light or noise blocking if those are required.
