Privacy Fence Screen Grey 5ft 9in x 155ft - 170 GSM Heavy Duty

In this review the ColourTree grey privacy fence screen is judged as a solid, long-lasting option for homeowners and property managers who need effective visual screening for chain link or temporary fencing. The single biggest reason to buy is durability: made from 170 GSM 100% virgin HDPE with UV stabilized compounds, it resists fading and tearing better than recycled alternatives and is sized to fit a 6 ft fence since the actual height measures 5'9". For anyone prioritizing privacy that holds up under sun exposure, this product offers a clear benefit.

Key Features

• Material: 170 GSM virgin HDPE provides thicker, stronger fabric that resists tearing for longer service life compared with recycled options.
• UV Protection: Fabric treated with UV stabilized compound after 20000 hours of lab testing to reduce fading and drying, extending outdoor lifespan.
• Privacy Performance: Approximately 90% visibility blockage gives effective screening for backyard, pool area, kennel or construction sites while remaining breathable.
• Reinforced Edges: Black 3-inch reinforced binding and stainless copper grommets placed every 12 in vertically and 24 in horizontally improve wind resistance and mounting strength.
• Included Hardware: Supplied with extra stainless grommets and cable zip ties so installation on chain link and welded wire fences is straightforward.
• Warranty: Limited 3 year warranty under normal use provides added confidence and free consultation if issues arise.

Who It's For

This fence screen suits homeowners who want a near-solid privacy barrier for a 6 ft fence, gardeners needing shade or wind protection for plants, and property caretakers who need a durable, low maintenance cover for long runs of chain link or temporary fencing. The breathable weave also makes it useful as a greenhouse or shade application where air and water flow must continue.

It is less appropriate for buyers looking for decorative, patterned panels or a completely opaque, solid vinyl barrier; those seeking decorative trim or full blackout should look at other styles. Also, if exact 6 ft height without any shortfall is required, note the actual height is 5'9" which is intended for typical 6 ft fences.
