What we screw into

The aluminum track is anchored with stainless steel screws into the soffit substructure-the same wood your gutters are mounted to. We never screw into stucco, siding, shingles, or trim.

Each screw is roughly the diameter of a thumbtack. If you ever pull the system, you're left with screw holes the size of a finishing nail-fillable in two minutes.

Where the wiring runs

The data + power cable runs inside the aluminum channel itself, then drops down through one small hole into the attic to reach the control box. One hole, weather-sealed. No wires visible from anywhere on the property.

What we never touch

Stucco. Hardie. Shingles. Trim wood. Gutters. Soffit panels (we only screw into the substructure behind them). If something looks wrong on install day, the work pauses.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my soffit is metal?
We use self-tapping stainless screws and a different anchoring rhythm. Same outcome.
Can you do this on a stucco-only house with no soffit?
Yes-we use a different mounting strategy with concealed brackets. Adds about 10% to install time.
