Visit our solar screen page to learn more about shade screen material. When using shade screen with a wood frame the screen should be stretched tight and stapled in place. An outer wood frame can be nailed to the outside for decoration and to help hold the screen. Use screen spline to attach shade screen to a screen room framing. Spline comes in many different sizes so be sure the size matches your frame and screen. Screen material rolled into a separate screen frame is also attached with spline. These screen frames are my favorite ways of using shade screen.
