Privacy Fence Screen Beige 3ft 10in x 196ft - 170 GSM Heavy Duty

In this review the reviewer finds the ColourTree privacy fence screen best suited for homeowners and renters who need an economical, heavy duty privacy solution for chain link or wire fences. The single biggest reason to buy is its commercial grade 170 GSM construction made from 100% virgin HDPE with UV stabilized compounds, which delivers noticeably better durability and privacy than thinner, recycled alternatives while still allowing breathability. Installation is straightforward and the product ships as a custom size made to order, so it fits a 4 ft fence line very closely.

Key Features

• Material: 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE offers a thick, tear-resistant fabric that holds up under sun and wind while staying breathable.
• UV Stabilized: Laboratory UV testing shows the fabric resists fading and drying, extending the usable life compared with recycled alternatives.
• Custom Fit: Actual height is 3'10" so it fits a 4 ft fence precisely and custom sizes are manufactured in 2 to 3 business days.
• Reinforced Edges: Stainless copper grommets placed 12 in vertically and 24 in horizontally plus 3 in reinforced binding help the screen withstand wind load.
• Versatile Use: Breathable, water-resistant weave can be used for garden shade, greenhouse covering, pet pens, pool privacy, and more.

Who It's For

The ColourTree screen is ideal for people who want a durable, long-lasting privacy screen without building a permanent fence; it suits backyard privacy, pet pens, pool enclosures, and construction or site screening where breathability matters. It is also a good fit for climates with strong sun exposure since the UV stabilized compound is specifically tested to resist sun damage.

Customers who need an exact opaque blackout curtain or decorative fabric for close-up display should look elsewhere, since this product balances visibility blockage (about 90%) with airflow and is intended as a functional, heavy duty screen rather than full blackout or ornamental siding.

Pros & Cons
