What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this screening system for its ease of installation and professional results, with most noting the intuitive process delivers a polished, contractor-quality finish without staples. Reviewers consistently highlight exceptional durability, reporting screens installed 15 or more years ago remain tight and have withstood hurricanes and harsh weather.

A few mention minor issues like plastic caps not snapping securely or scuffed components upon arrival, though these are viewed as manageable trade-offs for the system's overall performance and longevity.

Makes screening easy.

Would Recommend

Just what I needed to screen in my patio. No need to cut angles for fitting ends together and it fits perfectly with the caps to help hold the screen tight and neat. Good buy.

The screen tight system is amazing! So easy to use

Would Recommend

The screen tight system is amazing! So easy to use! We enclosed our above ground pool using this all the way around. My only complaint about Screen Tight is that the bases come in black but the caps do not. The colors available are pretty light. I had to send the grey back (looks like very light eggshell grey) and got the brown. It is also light (and this was brown not tan) but its the best of the choices for me. I used Phifer Charcoal Fiberglass Screen 18 x 14 Mesh and it looks like a pro did i...

Great for DIY

Works great.

Would Recommend

Love these, but using it off label to protect delicate LED light strips. The strip mounts perfectly in the larger center track.

Don't buy, not worth the money

Would Not Recommend

The plastic is cheap and when you go to bound the spline it, it cracks. Cheap!

Don't know who needs this but...

Would Recommend

Not sure who needs to hear this but... Yes it is worth it. Yes you need to use ALL the screw holes or else it will pop-up. (Buy the extra screws). The wider spline is harder to get in, but makes the screen tighter (it is worth it). Get a good roller not tue cheap plastic. Yes, It is easy but not easier than a staple gun and loose screen, but it looks better and seems it will last longer.
