This is the privacy shade net we supply for gardens and balconies, and it is ordered together with a fitting diagram because most of the questions on this product are about how the net is fixed rather than what it is made of: the roll runs down a fence post or a balcony rail and is tied through grommets at set intervals, which is the detail that decides whether the net hangs flat or sags between two points. The cloth is knitted HDPE with UV resistance in the yarn, cut to the height you give us.
Most of the questions on a privacy shade net are about the fixing rather than the cloth, so this product goes out with a fitting diagram. The net runs down a fence post or a balcony rail and is tied through grommets at set intervals, and that spacing is what decides whether it hangs flat or sags between two points.
The net is supplied as a roll cut to the height you give us, with grommets run along the fixing edge. It is then tied or wired to the posts, the rail or a wire line, which keeps the load spread along the run instead of concentrated at two corners. On a fence the top edge is usually taken to a wire so the net does not flap, and the bottom is left slightly clear of the ground so water and debris pass underneath rather than building up behind it. The same method works on a balcony rail without drilling.
The net goes along a garden fence, down a balcony rail, around a terrace edge and across a patio boundary, and the size is cut to the height of each run rather than taken from a stock panel. Because it is supplied by the roll, one order covers a balcony and a longer garden fence from the same cloth. Households setting trays under the same net often pair it with a planting bag, and the wider shade net range covers the reflective grades where a heat reflective cover is wanted instead.

Grommet spacing is made to order along with the height, so a long fence run can be given more fixing points than a short balcony rail instead of using one spacing for everything. That is what keeps a net from bellying in the middle of a run. A knitted monofilament net covers the shading job where a finer weave is wanted, while this net covers the privacy and windbreak work.
Height, roll length, grommet spacing and colour are all made to order, so the first detail to confirm is the height of the fence or rail and the total run. Nets ship in PP woven bags. Buyers tracking how screening performs outdoors can follow trade coverage such as HortiDaily and FreshPlaza for what is being installed.
How is the net fixed to a fence?
It is tied or wired to the posts through grommets along the fixing edge, with the top edge usually taken to a wire so the net does not flap. No drilling is needed on a balcony rail.
Can the grommet spacing be changed?
Yes. Spacing is made to order along with the height, so a long run can carry more fixing points than a short rail.
Can I order a different height, run or colour?
Yes. Height, roll length, grommet spacing and colour are all made to order.
Tell us the height and the total run you are covering, and the colour you are working to, and we will confirm the roll and the packing that suit your order.
