ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Grey 5ft x 97ft

In this review the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen proved to be a practical privacy solution for homeowners and commercial sites who need a durable, breathable screen for a 5 ft fence. The single biggest reason to buy is its heavy-duty 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE fabric that passed extended UV testing and resists fading and tearing, so it lasts significantly longer outdoors. Installation is straightforward with included cable zip ties and plentiful grommets, and the actual 4 ft 9 in height fits neatly on most 5 ft fences without excess material.

Key Features

• 170 GSM Virgin HDPE: The thick, non-recycled material delivers a sturdy, long-lasting barrier that stands up to sun and weather better than recycled alternatives.
• UV Stabilized Compounds: Fabric treated to resist drying, tearing and fading after extensive laboratory UV exposure, extending outdoor lifespan.
• 90% Visibility Blockage: Provides strong visual privacy for chain link, welded wire, or cyclone fences while still allowing air and water to pass.
• Reinforced Grommets and Binding: Stainless copper grommets are placed frequently along edges with 3-inch reinforced binding to hold up in wind and make installation durable.
• Multiple Uses: Breathable weave makes it suitable for privacy screens, greenhouse or shade covers, pet kennels and construction site barriers.
• Warranty and Support: Comes with a limited 3 year warranty and free consultation from the brand for normal usage and weather concerns.

Who It's For

The ColourTree fence screen is best for homeowners, renters, landscapers and commercial operators who need an economical privacy barrier that fits 5 ft fences and stands up to sun exposure. It suits anyone replacing an unattractive fence line, screening a pool or patio, enclosing a pet pen, or adding shade to a nursery without blocking airflow.

Those who need absolute blackout, solid vinyl panels or custom opaque panels for soundproofing should look elsewhere; this product is a porous, breathable fabric that prioritizes ventilation and durability over total light blockage.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High-quality 170 GSM virgin HDPE material offers noticeably better durability than recycled fabric alternatives.
• Excellent privacy with roughly 90% visibility blockage while allowing water and air through the weave.
• Plentiful stainless grommets and reinforced 3-inch binding make installation secure and wind-resistant.
• Versatile uses from garden shade to construction screening and greenhouse protection.

Cons

• Actual height is 4 ft 9 in, so it is not a full 5 ft; buyers wanting a true 5 ft opaque panel should verify fit before purchase.
