Privacy Screen Fabric

SheerWeave 4800 Fabric for Toronto and the GTA

SheerWeave 4800 is the maximum daytime privacy fabric in the lineup, built for projects where close sightlines, dense neighbourhoods, and street exposure are the main concern.

Maximum Daytime Privacy for Tight Urban Sightlines

SheerWeave 4800 is a 1% openness fabric chosen when a standard privacy fabric still is not enough. It creates a near-opaque feel from the outside during the day and is especially useful on balconies, porches, and patios that sit close to neighbouring homes or the street.

Across Toronto and the GTA, this is the fabric we turn to when the homeowner wants a stronger separation from adjacent properties but still prefers a fabric solution instead of a fully solid wall or blackout enclosure.

Why Choose SheerWeave 4800

Best for dense urban layouts and openings that need stronger privacy than SunTex 95 can provide.

Maximum Daytime Privacy

The dense weave makes it difficult for neighbours and passersby to see into the space during the day.

Softly Filtered Light

Even with the stronger privacy, the space still benefits from diffused daylight rather than full blackout conditions.

Strong Urban Fit

It works especially well on Toronto balconies, front porches, street-facing patios, and other openings where people are close by.

Upgrade from Standard Privacy Fabrics

When SunTex 95 is still too open for the site conditions, SheerWeave 4800 becomes the logical step up.

How It Works

How We Plan a SheerWeave 4800 Project

  1. Review the Opening

    We start with how the opening is used, how exposed it is, and what the biggest privacy, sun, or weather problem actually is.

  2. Choose the Fabric

    We look at how SheerWeave 4800 handles privacy, airflow, and visibility so the material matches the way the opening should feel in daily use.

  3. Match the System Details

    Once the fabric makes sense, we pair it with the right screen size, operation type, and mounting approach for the structure.

  4. Finalize the Layout

    We confirm which openings should use this fabric and whether any sides should use a different material for a better overall result.

Fabric Questions

SheerWeave 4800 FAQs

When should I choose SheerWeave 4800 instead of SunTex 95?

Choose SheerWeave 4800 when the site still feels too exposed with a standard privacy fabric and the project needs a denser, more private daytime result.

Does SheerWeave 4800 completely black out the opening?

No. It is very private, but it still allows filtered daylight. If the project needs full blackout, Soltis Proof 502 is the stronger option.
