Screws for uPVC

Aug 18, 2015 5 Replies

Just having some frames fitted and will need to re-fix roller blinds to the frames. Many people seem to avoid putting screws in - is there a reason? If not - what sort of screws are best?


No, other than making sure you avoid any hidden reinforcement bars, all the door/window hardware will be screwed on.

Ones with a coarse pitch, e.g.

I use either Screw Tite from TS or Turbo Gold from SF.

Any old chipboard screw works for me but I prefer to drill a pilot hole first

I think I could live with those domed screw head covers glued on.

Clean the edges of the hole to remove any burs and fill with white silicon sealant does quite a good job of hiding old screw holes.
