Ok, this screening isn't exactly opaque. The 1st pictures illustrates that. You probably need to double up to get total privacy. I am hopeful that the copper grommets are truly rust proof and hold up through the seasons. The provided wire ties are thin and I wish they were a little longer but they worked ok & should hold up fine.

I used this to cover my side neighbor's fence which has 30+ years' growth of English ivy hanging on it. It's well-established and the weight has broken down 2 of the 3 chain link fences.

Twice a year I cut back the ivy growing on, through and under the last standing chain link fence, which is on my property. It's a true bear to manage and my cheap neighbor doesn't want the expense of removing HIS ivy and doesnt take care of his back yard at all. No chemical or natural treatment kills it. Believe me, I tried everything.

About 3 years ago I used a small piece of this screen doubled up to block a section of the fence where stray cats were nesting under the ivy canopy on the neighbor's side so that my dogs wouldn't lose their mind when they saw a cat. I noticed, as a happy coincidence, that the ivy isn't growing through that section of fence and feel that the screen is physically blocking it or maybe depriving it of enough light. Whatever the reason, being desperate to keep the ivy out of my yard so I put up a 50' section. And as a bonus it looks very neat! I'll need another 25' piece to finish off the side fence and I'm considering getting 2 more 50' pieces to cover the back neighbor's fence.

It's just my attempt to preserve some feeling of both privacy and beauty so I can sit outside on my deck, with my dog, and not see that ugly English ivy taunting me. And instead have an attractive, cohesive looking fence line to admire.

UPDATE: I did buy 2 more sections but I'm 22 feet short. Wasn't until I went back to order another section that I noticed they do custom sizes to the nearest foot. Duh!! So I got a 4' x 22' section to finish. Wish I'd seen the custom size section before. Lesson learned!

I measured and ordered the 4' x 50' but it was a bit too small (top to bottom) for my fence. Since it was already installed, I left it on and decided to order the 5' x 50', which was a perfect fit! I put both covers on top of each because on the first install, you can still see through it. The second cover resolved that. I would definitely purchase this item again and pay a little bit more if the "sheerness" of the shade cover is improved. Additionally, the zip ties that were included in the package are way too short and thin for the work on my fence. Luckily, I ordered separate zip ties that were much thicker and longer.

Loved the product and it arrived earlier than expected

I used this privacy screen as a canopy to protect our deck from sap dripping evergreen next door. Installed for a month or two, it has done the job through several severe summer storms catching 90% of sap and weathering high winds and soaking rains. Relatively inexpensive purchase to avoid hours of scrubbing pine sap from composite decking.

I recently purchased the UPGRADE Privacy Screen 4' x 25' Fence Shade Cover in Sand for our outdoor backyard space, and it has truly exceeded my expectations in every way. This heavy-duty shade cover has been a game-changer for our outdoor living area.

Firstly, installation was a breeze thanks to the included brass grommets. They ensured a secure and hassle-free attachment to our fence, and the 4' x 25' size provided ample coverage for our needs. The sand color is not only aesthetically pleasing but also blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings.

The privacy screen effectively shields our backyard from prying eyes while allowing just the right amount of sunlight to filter through. It's remarkable how it transforms our space into a cozy, private oasis. It's perfect for those family gatherings, barbecues, or simply relaxing in the shade.

What sets this privacy screen apart is its durability. It has weathered strong winds, rain, and intense sunlight without showing any signs of wear and tear. I appreciate the high-quality material used in its construction, which clearly speaks to its longevity.

Cleaning and maintenance are a breeze too. A simple hose-down or wipe with a damp cloth is all it takes to keep it looking pristine.

Overall, the UPGRADE Privacy Screen has been a fantastic addition to our backyard. It provides the privacy we desired, looks great, and has proven its durability over time. If you're looking to enhance your outdoor space, I highly recommend this product. It's well worth the investment, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase!
