MESHGUARD is an innovative solution to eliminating an
obstructed view due to pickets/balusters on a deck or porch
railing. The installation is simple for the DIY and all hardware is
rust resistant. Additionally, this screening system also encompasses
excellent screen retention due to the flat spline design.

MESHGUARD can be
installed on the exterior of
an existing railing system.
If you need to do so, start
with removing the screens.
If not, start with step 3.
If you currently have
pickets/balusters around the
porch, you can also remove
these prior to beginning
installation for a full,
unobstructed porch view.
Next, you will need to
cut the framework pieces
accordingly for easy
installation.
After the perimeter
has been secured to
the porch, take the
MESHGUARD screen
material and spread
across the entire
screening area.
To roll screen into place,
use the MESHGUARD flat
spline and a Screen Tight
Rollerknife to begin the
process. The rounded,
orange area of the spline
will go down into the
base.
To begin installing the
MESHGUARD railing
system, first measure the
outer perimeter areas
and inner horizontal
for precise cuts on the
framework pieces.
If rolled correctly, the
orange portion of spline
will not be visible. Next,
cut away any excess
screen by using the hook
end of the Rollerknife or
a boxcutting tool.
Once the framework
pieces are altered to the
proper size, you will also
need to repeat this step
for the galvanized steel
pieces.
Be sure to cut away
the correct amount for
the galvanized steel
to
fit exactly inside
the framework. This
provides added strength
and stability to the
MESHGUARD screening
system.
Once all cuts have
been made, slide the
galvanized steel inside
the MESHGUARD base
and begin laying out the
framework around the
perimeter.
Once the framework is laid
out on the outside perimeter
of the porch, then drill
the fasteners to attach
directly to the porch. If
needed, add fasteners at
each end of the base
if there is not one within
2inches.
Lastly, add your desired
cap or to cover and
complete the installation.
MESHGUARD screen material has superior strength and tear
resistance as compared to standard screening materials for
added safety and protection in the bottom panel of the rail-
ing. You can safely keep your children and pets in, while
keeping insects and unwanted pests out.
