Snapp® Screen System
Snapp® is an extremely versatile porch screening product that all but disappears once installed. It adapts to openings of any shape and size, and it works just as well on a deck rail as it does across a two-storey gable. Cut the extrusion to length, mount it on each side of the opening, roll in the screen. Done.

Where it works
Snapp® mounts to any base material: steel, aluminum, wood, Azek and others. Fix it directly to the structure, to a wood framing system, or to anything else you can dream up. It is a strong choice for porch, patio and deck screening as well as an unlimited array of specialised installations.
How to install it
Snapp® installation takes four steps:
- Measure the opening
- Cut the extrusions to length
- Mount the extrusions
- Install the screen material
It can be mounted around the outside of the opening or inside it, and the two methods can be combined on the same job. Locate your first screw at the extrusion centre point and work outward, positioning screws along the flange score line. Pre-drill all holes and use screws suitable for your conditions.
Screw spacing
- Aluminum Snapp®
- 1" from each end, then every 12"
- PVC Snapp®
- 1" from each end, then every 8–12"
- Spline tool
- 3/32" nylon wheel
Always use new OEM spline when rescreening. Re-used spline will not give enough tension and the screen will go slack.
Recommended screening pattern
Screen in this order: top, bottom, prime hand side, then non-prime hand side. Working in that sequence keeps the tension even and stops the mesh pulling out of square.

- Mill: unfinished aluminum
- Bronze powder coat (TIGER Drylac Series 38 / 60060)
- White powder coat (TIGER Drylac Series 49 / 11340)
