Royal Shade Custom Size 5ft x 130ft White Fence Privacy Screen

In this review of the Royal Shade custom size privacy screen, the bottom line is simple: this windscreen is for homeowners and landscapers who need a long, durable cover that balances airflow with strong privacy. The reviewer found the 5 ft nominal height (actual 4 ft 10 in) and 130 ft length ideally suited for standard 5 foot fences and long runs, and the biggest reason to buy is the heavy duty HDPE fabric that provides roughly 90% visual blockage while remaining breathable enough to reduce wind load.

Key Features

• Actual measurement: The screen measures 4 ft 10 in tall to fit a 5 ft fence while avoiding bottom drag and sag issues.
• Durable fabric: Woven commercial grade HDPE resists UV and water so the material holds up under sun exposure and wet weather.
• Privacy level: Approximately 90% blockage delivers strong visual screening without creating a total blackout effect.
• Breathable construction: The breathable weave allows breeze to pass through, cutting wind load and protecting fence fastenings.
• Reinforced edges: Heavy duty black binding and stainless brass grommets placed 12 in apart vertically and 24 in apart horizontally make installation secure and long lasting.
• Warranty: A 3 year limited warranty gives reasonable protection for typical outdoor use and sun exposure.

Who It's For

This screen is best for residential yards, rental property owners, plant nurseries and construction sites that need a long continuous run of shade or privacy. Its length and grommet spacing make it practical for fencing, kennel runs, or garden enclosures where a neat, professional-looking barrier is important.

Those who need total blackout privacy, decorative patterns, or a short one-off panel under 5 ft tall should look elsewhere; the product is purpose-built for long fence lines and functional wind and sun control rather than ornate finishes.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Strong privacy with about 90% visual blockage while still allowing airflow for plants and patios.
• Heavy duty HDPE construction resists UV and water, so it endures outdoor exposure without quick degradation.
• Well finished edges and evenly spaced stainless brass grommets make installation straightforward and durable.
• Generous 130 ft length covers long runs without multiple seams or joins.

Cons

• Actual height is 4 ft 10 in, so buyers expecting a full 5 ft of coverage may notice a small gap at the top or bottom depending on fence mounting.
• Not a complete blackout screen, so it will not fully block all light or visibility in every angle.
