5FT x 227FT Green Privacy Fence Screen - Heavy Duty Temporary Windscreen Netting with Zip Ties for Backyard, Garden, School | Blocks View While Allowing Airflow | Perfect for Outdoor Events, Construction Sites & Pool Areas

Our back property line is almost 225 feet long. We are up against a fairly busy road and had open, ornamental fence across the entire property line. We were considering saving up for arborvitae trees or vinyl fencing, but it was hard to justify $10K plus in a place that already had a fence. We held off on doing the privacy shades because we feared they'd look tacky, but I'm very impressed with how nice they look. We enjoy our back yard so much more now! It's so nice to be able to enjoy your back yard without traffic staring at your every day. For less than $400 we were able to do our entire fence line. Despite the relatively low cost, this is probably one of the best upgrades we've ever done to our house. It completely changed the feel of our property. We did have to buy some longer zip ties to use in a few places where we needed to go around the entire fence post. We took our time and made sure the shades were pulled tight before zipping each grommet down. Pulling the shades tight definitely makes them look nicer and also keeps the wind from getting a hold of them. We have a fairly strong wind that blows against the fence line regularly so we chose to put the shades on the outside of the fence so that the fence supports the shades when the wind blows.Update: the item itself is great, but if you live in a windy area do yourself a favor and buy stainless steel zip ties (or at least much heavier duty plastic ones). The plastic zip ties they include with these are simply not up to the job and we’ve had to replace them all. The problem is that once one breaks and the wind starts to get a hold of the shade it will begin to easily break more and more ties and you’ll be out there in a wind storm trying to tie them down. After that happened one time I bought the stainless ones (which are surprisingly cheap here on Amazon) and haven’t had a single problem since. Do the job once and skip the plastic ones
