Troubleshooting
Screen is not staying taut
Ensure you are using sufficient cable ties or fixing points. Re-adjust and tighten the fastenings, ensuring an even distribution of tension across the width of the screen.
Difficulty cutting the material cleanly
Use a very sharp utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. Make slow, deliberate cuts. For a cleaner edge, consider using a hot knife tool (use with extreme caution and in a well-ventilated area).
Fraying at cut edges
While PE is tear-resistant, cut edges can sometimes show minor fraying. This is usually cosmetic and does not affect the screen's integrity. For very neat edges, you can attempt to lightly melt the edge with a carefully controlled flame or hot air gun, but practice on a scrap piece first.
Color appears different than expected
Screen colors can appear differently under various lighting conditions and on different monitor displays. Refer to product images in natural light if possible. The material is designed for outdoor use, and slight variations are normal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:

- Cut (if necessary): Carefully cut the screen to your desired size using sharp scissors or a utility knife. Ensure clean cuts to prevent fraying.
- Attach: Secure the screen using cable ties (not included), rope, or by weaving it through existing structures like railings or fences. Ensure it is taut but not overly stretched.
