    Mesh Privacy Fence Screens for Chain-Link Fences & Outdoor Areas

    Create a more private, shaded outdoor space with 87% shade mesh privacy fence screens from Canopies & Tarps. Designed for use with compatible fencing and support structures, these breathable screens help reduce visibility into yards, construction areas, equipment storage lots, and commercial properties.

    Unlike solid tarps, mesh fence screens allow air to pass through the fabric. This makes them a practical option for applications requiring visual screening, shade, and ventilation.

    Choose from available screen heights and colors to suit your fence and outdoor environment.

    Popular Privacy Fence Screen Applications

    Understanding Privacy Screen Sizes

    When shopping for a mesh privacy fence screen, it is important to distinguish between the nominal size and the finished size.

    Nominal size identifies the product's advertised size, while finished size describes the actual dimensions of the completed screen. These measurements may differ due to the manufacturing and finishing process.

    Measurement 6' x 50' Screen Example
    Nominal Size 6' x 50'
    Finished Size 5'8" x 49'3"
    Shade Rating 87%
    Grommet Spacing Approximately every 12 inches

    These specifications apply to the confirmed 6' x 50' privacy screen models. Check the individual product listing for other heights and sizes.

    For the best fit, measure your fence height and total length, including individual sections and gates you intend to cover.

    Privacy, Shade & Wind: What to Expect

    An 87% shade rating describes the fabric's shade performance. It does not mean the screen guarantees 87% visual privacy in every situation. Visibility can vary with lighting, viewing distance, and conditions on either side of the fence.

    Mesh construction allows some airflow, but every installed screen still creates wind resistance and adds load to the supporting fence.

    Important Installation Consideration

    Privacy screens are not windproof, dustproof, or engineered debris-containment barriers. Always confirm that the fence and its supports are suitable for the additional wind load. Remove screens ahead of severe weather when practical.

    How to Install a Mesh Privacy Screen on a Chain-Link Fence

    1. Measure your fence. Check the height and length of each section before selecting a screen.
    2. Inspect the structure. Make sure posts, rails, and fencing are secure and suitable for additional screening.
    3. Choose suitable fasteners. Use compatible ties or flexible fasteners appropriate for the fence and site.
    4. Position the screen. Start at one corner and align the fabric evenly along the fence.
    5. Secure the perimeter. Attach the screen using its available grommets with even tension. Avoid overstressing attachment points.
    6. Inspect regularly. Check fasteners, hems, and fence stability, particularly after windy conditions.
