90 x 500 cm Balcony Screens for Balconies and Terraces
A 90 cm high balcony privacy screen is ideal for covering the open sections of many balcony railings. With a length of 5 metres, it provides a practical solution for creating a more private and comfortable outdoor space.
Balcony screening can also be used on suitable roof terraces and other outdoor railings, provided the supporting structure is strong enough.
For larger garden boundaries, explore our garden fencing and privacy screening range. If you need protection from direct sunlight overhead, consider purpose-designed shade netting rather than vertical balcony screening.

Balcony Privacy Screening for Balconies, Roof Terraces and Outdoor Spaces
A balcony privacy screen is an effective way to make an open balcony feel more private and comfortable. Whether you live in a flat, apartment or property with an exposed terrace, balcony screening helps reduce visibility through open railings.
It is particularly useful when neighbouring buildings overlook your balcony or when your outdoor seating area is visible from the street.
Our woven polyethylene balcony screens provide a practical combination of privacy, weather resistance and an attractive finish. Available in different colours, they can complement both modern and traditional outdoor spaces.
What Are the Benefits of a Balcony Privacy Screen?
1. More Privacy from Neighbours and Passers-by
The main reason to install balcony privacy screening is to reduce overlooking.
Open metal railings often provide little privacy, particularly on balconies facing busy streets, communal gardens or neighbouring properties.
A balcony screen covers the open sections of the railing and helps create a more secluded outdoor seating area.
The actual level of privacy depends on the fabric weave, colour, viewing angle and lighting conditions.
2. A More Sheltered Balcony
A balcony wind screen can reduce some direct airflow through open railings, making your balcony feel more sheltered.
This can be particularly useful on exposed balconies where wind makes outdoor seating less comfortable.
However, woven balcony screening is not necessarily completely windproof. It also increases the wind load on the railing, so the supporting structure must be sufficiently strong.
3. An Attractive Balcony Finish
Balcony screening offers more than a practical solution. It can also improve the appearance of your outdoor space.
Choose a colour that complements your balcony furniture, planters, exterior walls or railings to create a coordinated look.
4. UV-Resistant Outdoor Fabric
Our balcony screens are made from UV-resistant woven polyethylene designed for outdoor use.
The material is low-maintenance and suitable for normal outdoor conditions when installed and used correctly.
5. Straightforward Installation
Thanks to the integrated aluminium eyelets, the balcony screen can be attached to a suitable railing using UV-resistant cable ties or appropriate fixing cord.
The reinforced edges provide additional support around the fabric.

What Is Balcony Screening Made From?
Our balcony screens are manufactured from woven polyethylene (PE) with a fabric weight of 160 g/m².
Polyethylene is commonly used in outdoor screening because it combines flexibility, relatively low weight and resistance to normal weather conditions.
The woven construction provides screening while allowing some airflow, depending on the fabric structure.
Why Are Aluminium Eyelets Important?
Aluminium eyelets provide convenient fixing points along the screen. Positioned approximately every 50 cm, they allow the fabric to be attached at regular intervals to a suitable balcony railing.
Use appropriate fixings and avoid placing excessive tension on individual eyelets.
What Does 160 g/m² Mean?
The fabric weight of 160 grams per square metre indicates the weight of the material over a given area.
It is a useful product specification, although overall durability also depends on the weave, edge reinforcement, UV resistance and installation.
Which Colour Balcony Screen Should You Choose?
The colour of your balcony privacy screen can make a noticeable difference to the appearance of your outdoor space.
Green Balcony Screening
Green screening can complement plants, balcony planters and natural garden surroundings.
Anthracite Balcony Screening
Anthracite is well suited to contemporary balconies, dark metal railings and modern outdoor furniture.
Black Balcony Screening
Black screening offers a simple, understated appearance that works with a wide range of exterior finishes.
Available colours vary by product, so check the current options before ordering.
How to Install a Balcony Privacy Screen
Many balcony screens can be installed without specialist tools, provided the railing is suitable and strong enough.
Always follow the instructions for your product and check any building management or leasehold restrictions before fitting screening.
- Measure your balcony railing: Check the required height and total length.
- Inspect the structure: Ensure the railing and its fixings can withstand additional wind loads.
- Unroll the balcony screen: Position it neatly along the inside of the railing.
- Secure the first corner: Use a suitable UV-resistant cable tie or fixing cord.
- Attach the top edge: Work along the eyelets and distribute the tension evenly.
- Secure the sides and bottom: Prevent loose sections from flapping in the wind.
- Check the installation: Inspect the fixings regularly and follow the product guidance during severe weather.
Important: Balcony screens increase the wind resistance of a railing. Never attach screening to an unstable structure or a railing that is not designed to withstand the additional load.
Can You Cut Balcony Screening to Size?
Some woven screening fabrics can be cut to fit a particular area. However, cutting a balcony screen may remove its reinforced edges or aluminium eyelets.
This can weaken the fabric and reduce the effectiveness of the fixing points.
Always check whether the individual product is suitable for cutting before making any alterations.
Balcony Privacy Screen or Garden Privacy Mesh?
A balcony privacy screen is designed primarily for covering balcony railings and similar structures.
Garden privacy mesh is generally used on larger fences, wire mesh panels and garden boundaries.
If you want to screen a larger outdoor area, browse our garden fencing and screening range for suitable alternatives.
Balcony Screening or Shade Netting?
Although balcony screening can reduce some direct sunlight entering through a railing, its main purpose is to improve privacy.
If you want overhead protection from the sun, purpose-designed shade netting is generally more suitable.
Shade netting and privacy screening are not automatically interchangeable. Always check that the product is suitable for its intended installation.
Alternative Ways to Improve Balcony Privacy
A balcony privacy screen is one of several ways to create a more secluded outdoor space.
Natural Screening
Natural screening made from willow, bamboo, heather or other materials can provide an attractive alternative where the supporting structure is suitable.
Explore our garden fencing and natural screening products for other options.
Decorative Balcony Screening
For a different appearance, consider decorative screening designed specifically for balcony railings.
Always check the weight, fixing requirements and wind resistance before choosing a screen for an elevated balcony.
How to Clean and Maintain a Balcony Privacy Screen
Woven polyethylene balcony screens are relatively easy to maintain. Regular cleaning helps prevent dirt from building up on the fabric.
- Remove loose dirt using a soft brush.
- Clean with lukewarm water and a mild detergent when required.
- Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
- Inspect the aluminium eyelets and fixings regularly.
- Follow the product guidance for strong winds and extreme weather.
The service life of balcony screening depends on exposure to sunlight, wind, weather conditions and the quality of the installation.
