ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen Privacy Screen White 8 ft x 23

In this review the ColourTree Customized Size Fence Screen is presented as a practical privacy solution for homeowners and small businesses that need a durable, breathable barrier. The reviewer found the single biggest reason to buy is the fabric quality: a genuine 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE weave treated with UV stabilized compound, which the maker says was lab tested for up to 20000 hours and resists drying, tearing and fading. For anyone wanting a near 90% visibility blockage on an 8 ft fence, this product aims to combine longevity with easy installation.

Key Features

• 170 GSM virgin HDPE: The thick, non-recycled fabric provides a denser weave for stronger privacy and a firmer feel than lighter screens.
• UV stabilized compounds: Laboratory UV testing and added stabilizers help prevent fading and material brittleness under prolonged sun exposure.
• Actual height 7' 9" to fit 8 ft fences: The slightly smaller actual height fits neatly on an 8 ft fence without excess material pooling at the top.
• Extra stainless grommets and reinforced binding: Multiple grommets 12 in apart vertically and 24 in horizontally with 3 in reinforced edges improve wind resistance and attachment points.
• Breathable, water resistant weave: The porous fabric allows air and water through, making it useful for garden shades, greenhouse covers or pet enclosures while still blocking visibility.
• 3 year limited warranty: A manufacturer warranty provides added reassurance under normal use and weather conditions.

Who It's For

This fence screen is best for homeowners, landscapers or property managers who need high coverage privacy on chain link or welded wire fences and want a heavier, UV-tested material rather than lighter recycled options. It suits backyard privacy, pool screening, pet pens, and areas where shade and wind reduction are desirable alongside visual concealment.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who need an exact 8 ft flat panel without any shrinkage margin or those who prefer decorative patterns instead of a solid white concealment. Also, if you require a fully opaque, non-breathable barrier for total sight or sound blocking, a different product would be a better fit.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Thicker 170 GSM virgin HDPE provides stronger privacy and a more robust feel than typical recycled screens.
• UV stabilization and long lab testing suggest improved resistance to fading and tearing in sun-exposed locations.
• Reinforced 3 in binding and evenly spaced stainless grommets make installation secure and improve wind performance.
• Versatile use for gardens, greenhouses, pool fencing and pet enclosures thanks to a breathable weave.

Cons

• Actual height is 7' 9" which fits an 8 ft fence but may be unexpected for buyers wanting a full 8 ft panel.
• Some customers report mixed durability experience with eyelets under heavy wind, so installation method matters for longevity.
