Timber decking has become a popular home improvement choice amongst UK homeowners since the 1990s for many different reasons, not least because it has the potential to transform a garden relatively quickly and easily.
But as with every type of building material and system, the way timber decking is installed will have a major impact on how it looks, its longevity and durability. And the type of screws you choose for the timber decking’s installation is a particularly important decision.
Why are different thread forms used on the various types of window screws and how can you make sure you choose the right types to assemble your windows and doors?
The fasteners that are used every day in window and door manufacturing are designed specifically for that purpose.
