How to Guide

SPIKES
Needle Strips is a one-piece mold of transparent (therefore unobtrusive)
polycarbonate, including base and spikes projecting to one side. The mold is then
ultrasonically welded to its mirror image so that spikes will project to both sides. "Branches"
protrude from vertical projections to offer fuller coverage. Note: NARROW SPIKES
is
simply half the width of STANDARD SPIKES
, in order to cover efficiently ledges less than
3" wide.
