ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen Grey 6ft x 5

In this review the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen is presented as a practical privacy and shade solution for homeowners, gardeners and small businesses. The single biggest reason to consider it is the material quality: made from 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE with UV stabilized compounds, it is built to last and resist fading or tearing in prolonged sun exposure. The reviewer found it best for covering chain link or cyclone wire fences where a durable, breathable privacy barrier is needed and appreciates the included grommets and reinforced binding for straightforward installation.

Key Features

• 170 GSM virgin HDPE: The heavy duty, non-recycled material provides a thick, robust fabric that stands up better to wear than typical recycled alternatives.
• UV stabilized compound: Lab tested for long sun exposure, the fabric is treated to resist drying, tearing and fading so it retains appearance and function longer.
• Actual height fit: At an actual height of 5' 9' the panel fits neatly on a 6 ft fence without excess material dragging or leaving gaps.
• Extensive grommet and binding reinforcement: Stainless grommets placed every 12 in vertically and 24 in horizontally with 3 in reinforced binding help the screen hold up in wind and simplify secure attachment.
• Breathable weave for multiple uses: The porous fabric allows air and water to pass, making it suitable for garden shade, greenhouse cover or kennel shading while still blocking view.
• Three year warranty: A limited 3 year warranty provides added peace of mind for normal use and weather conditions.

Who It's For

This fence screen is aimed at homeowners and property managers who need a long lasting privacy solution for chain link, cyclone or welded wire fences and want a heavy duty panel that resists UV damage. It is also useful for gardeners and small nurseries looking for shade or wind blocking that still breathes.

Those who need a decorative or temporary lightweight screen for short term events, or who require a fully opaque, non-porous barrier for complete sight and sound isolation, should consider other materials; this product trades complete opacity for durability and breathability.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High quality 170 GSM virgin HDPE gives a noticeably thicker, more durable sheet than recycled options.
• UV stabilization and long lab testing history means less fading and longer life in sunny installations.
• Comprehensive grommet placement and reinforced binding make installation secure and help the screen withstand wind.
• Versatile use cases from privacy screening to greenhouse and shade cover thanks to breathable weave.

Cons

• Privacy is porous rather than fully opaque, so it blocks about 90% of visibility but does not produce total blackout.
• Actual height is 5' 9' which fits a 6 ft fence but may not suit installations that require exactly 6' of coverage without any gap.
