What do I need to install SNAPP® screen Track?
You’ll need to purchase the appropriate amounts of screen material and installation hardware, including installation screws, a screen spline installation tool, screen retainer spline, and of course, the SNAPP® screen Track in your preferred color. You’ll also need a utility knife, screw gun or screwdriver and a miter-saw or hand saw to cut the screen extrusions to the preferred lengths.
Do my screen frames or openings need to be square, plumb and level before the new screen is installed?
Your openings or frames do not need to be plumb, square or level in order to install SNAPP® screen Track. The specific design of SNAPP® screen Track allows it to be installed into almost any shape or size opening - even those that aren't plumb, square or level.
Can I install screens for oddly shaped frames?
Absolutely. SNAPP® PVC screen Track can be installed into any shape frame, including triangles, trapezoids and even arches.
Can I install SNAPP® screen facing inwards?
Absolutely. SNAPP® screen Track can be installed facing inwards or outwards.
Can I install SNAPP® screen Track directly to concrete or pressure treated lumber?
PVC and Powder coated aluminum SNAPP® screen Track can both be mounted directly to concrete and pressure treated lumber.
While not actually needed, we do recommend that a bond breaker be applied between aluminum SNAPP® screen Track and the concrete or pressure treated mounting surface. Simply run standard electrical tape on the back side of all aluminum track to break the bond.
Stainless steel installation hardware, like our stock mounting screws, should always be used with pressure treated lumber.
What is the largest opening that can be screened?
Other than the availability of screen material, and your own ability, there is no limitation on opening size when using ALUMINUM SNAPP® screen Track. While larger installations have been performed, 110 SF is the maximum recommended size for PVC SNAPP® screen Track.

Be practical in design - just because a massive opening can be screened doesn’t always mean it should be. Keep your application, exposure, potential abuse, climate, etc. in mind.

My openings require extrusions longer than stock 94" SNAPP® screen Tracks.
SNAPP® screen Track is specifically designed to be butted together. Opening width or height doesn't matter... just cut the extrusion as needed and butt pieces together. SNAPP® screen Track is a zero waste product so every inch of product is usable. 94" is also the most efficient length for shipping and does not incur any extreme length charges now imposed by all shippers.
I have spline and/or a spline tool, my local home center sells spline and/or tools - can I use them with SNAPP® screen Track?
Spline is available in over 50 different styles, sizes and shapes and no 2 are the same. The same is true for spline tools; dozens of different styles, sizes and shapes and no 2 are the same. SNAPP® screen Track uses a specific design self-compacting / self-expanding spline that must be installed using specific size nylon spline installation tool. Odds of you, or your local home center, having either of these items is pretty much zero. Save yourself a lot of aggravation - purchase spline and tool with your order -or- order a screen kit which contains all items needed.
Which is better - Aluminum or PVC SNAPP® screen Track?
No easy way to answer this common question since both products work extremely well. While extruded aluminum is obviously far superior to extruded PVC, application, location, budget, etc. all play into selecting the best material for your project. Rest assured, no matter which product is chosen, SNAPP® screen Track will perform exactly as we describe.

Standard recommendations:
- If your opening is over 110 SF: Use aluminum SNAPP® screen Track
- If you reside in a shoreline location: Use PVC SNAPP® screen Track
- If you reside in an area prone to extreme or extended freezing conditions: Use aluminum SNAPP® screen Track
- If you have an arch: Use PVC SNAPP® screen Track for the arch
