    Impact Screen Installation

    Quick question, can the top of the impact screen be attached via hooks vs bungees or is it recommended that the screen be attached via bungees all the way around? My plan was to attach via hooks on the top, bungees on the sides and loose at the bottom (screen approx. 6" too long). Will this work?

      Why are you considering hooks? Ball bungees and tarp clips seem to be the recipe that most people find successful.

        Trying to maximize screen height given a bulkhead issue on part of the ceiling. I may be making too much of the 3-4 inches I am losing however......

          Hooks and bungees are both cheap. Buy both, experiment and see what works. Every setup is different and sometimes the only way to know is to tinker around. A pack of ball bungees will set you back all of 7 bucks or so.

            If you are using hooks, use bungee hooks - fold the bungee over so you have both hooks side by side and the folded bungee cord at the other end, then push the folded end through the eyelet. Then push both hooks through the loop you created the other end of the eyelet.
            You then have 2 hooks that you can space as you want (to adjust tension) on your installed angle iron.
            I would not use hooks on their own.
            You could use cable ties for the top - good for easily adjusting the screen height you need.
            Bungees with hooks both ends for the sides.
            I am not putting anything on the bottom.
