RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION TOOLS AND MATERIALS
Each Habitat Screen installation requires a minimum of 2 installers. Not all installations are the same. While the
following items will not be required on every installation, this is a list of minimum requirements that we
recommend for the majority of Habitat Screen installations. While we do not supply common tools and
hardware, contact us to purchase the specialized tools like motor tester cables.
Please note: Talius does not supply the fasteners for installation. We believe this is better handled
by the Talius Dealer, based on the on-site construction considerations.
