Original Screen Tight System

The Original Screen Tight system is a well-known screening method that utilizes a base and cap design to securely hold the screen in place. It’s popular for porches and patios due to its durability and simplicity, and it’s often favored by homeowners and installers for its ease of use.

Quick Installation and Low Maintenance

The base and cap system allows for quick installation and easy screen replacement. The cap snaps over the base, covering the screws and securing the screen, which can be easily removed for repairs.

Versatile and Durable

Made from weather-resistant, UV-protected vinyl, Original Screen Tight resists fading and cracking, even in extreme weather.

Clean Finish

The cap covers any visible screws, giving it a sleek, finished appearance that blends seamlessly with various styles.

Cost-effective Solution

Original Screen Tight is an economical screening option that offers professional-quality results, making it a cost-effective choice for large porches and patios.

Weather-Resistant Material

The mesh used in MeshGuard systems is highly resistant to the elements, with UV-stabilized materials that won’t warp, fade, or degrade quickly. This weatherproofing ensures the screen maintains its integrity and appearance, even in coastal or high-humidity environments.

Pest Protection

The secure, tight-fitting screen design creates a reliable barrier against insects and debris, ensuring a comfortable, pest-free outdoor experience.

Original Screen Tight Frequently asked Questions

Can I mount Screen Tight on the inside of the porch?

Yes. Screen Tight and MeshGuard can mount two ways — facing the interior or exterior of your porch.

Can I remove the Screen Tight cap once installed?

Simply use a flat head screwdriver to pry the cap off at the end. Once it is pulled up you can remove the rest with your hand. This is a huge advantage over using lattice and staples as it’s simple and easy and doesn’t rip your screen.

Can I install wood lattice instead of the PVC Screen Tight cap?

Yes, you can install stained or painted wood lattice using nails or fasteners of your choosing. If you are wanting black caps, this is the preferred method to achieve that look.

Can Screen Tight caps be painted?

The caps can be painted. The caps needed to be cleaned with denatured alcohol and painted with a latex paint. We don't recommend dark colors as the UV rays can be harsh on vinyl.
