SUNLAX Custom Size Fence Privacy Screen 90% Blockage - Heavy Duty

In this review of the SUNLAX Custom Size fence privacy screen, the reviewer found it best suited for homeowners and renters who need a durable, high-opacity windscreen for chain link fences, balconies, and pool enclosures. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of heavy-duty 100% new HDPE material and roughly 85%-90% shading that delivers genuine visual privacy and sun protection while resisting UV damage, making it a practical choice for outdoor privacy without permanent installation.

Key Features

• Custom-made sizes: Can be cut to fit unique fence dimensions so the screen adapts to odd lengths and shapes for a cleaner fit.
• High quality HDPE material: Constructed from 100% new high density polyethylene for long-lasting use and no recycled content concerns.
• 90% blockage and UV resistance: Provides about 85%-90% shading and 95% UV protection to reduce visibility and sun exposure.
• Grommets and reinforced bindings: Rustproof aluminum grommets spaced about 19.68 in apart with reinforced edges help the screen withstand wind and hold up on fences.
• Easy installation: Zip ties are included so the screen can be installed or removed without tools for quick setup on chain link fences or railings.

Who It's For

The SUNLAX privacy screen is ideal for people who want an economical, removable privacy solution for chain link fences, balcony railings or pool areas where sightlines need to be reduced and light is partially blocked. It works well for renters and homeowners who prefer not to build permanent structures but still want visual privacy and wind reduction.

Those who need exact factory-cut dimensions with very tight tolerances or a fully opaque fabric should look elsewhere, since the material has up to a 4 in tolerance due to elasticity and is designed for 85%-90% shading rather than total blackout.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Provides substantial visual privacy and sun protection thanks to high-density HDPE and a high shading rate.
• Simple, no-tool installation with included zip ties, making it easy to fit and remove.
• Durable fittings: aluminum grommets and reinforced bindings improve wind resistance and longevity.
• Customizable sizing lets users adapt the panel to nonstandard fence lengths.

Cons

• Zip ties in the package may vary in length; some users reported they are not long enough for certain installations.
• Elasticity creates a tolerance of up to 4 in, so exact-fit applications may require trimming or adjustments.

Specifications

Our Verdict

The SUNLAX custom size fence privacy screen is a practical, cost-effective option for people seeking removable privacy and sun protection for fences, balconies, or pool areas. Its 100% new HDPE construction, high shading rate, and reinforced grommets deliver good durability and privacy value, while included zip ties make installation straightforward. Choose this if you want strong visual screening without permanent work; if you need perfect dimensional precision or complete opacity, consider a different product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this be trimmed to fit a nonstandard fence height?
Yes, the material is custom-cuttable and can be trimmed, but allow for a tolerance of up to 4 in due to elasticity.

Are the grommets rustproof for coastal use?
The grommets are rustproof aluminum, which improves corrosion resistance compared with plain metal grommets.

Will it block wind completely?
It reduces wind and visibility with about 85%-90% blockage but is not a complete windproof barrier; reinforced edges and grommets help it hold up in windy conditions.
