Aluminum splice plate for double wirelock
-
Description
The aluminum splice plate for double wirelock securely bridges the gap between lengths of continuous base channel. Designed for heavy-grade aluminum double-channel profiles, this essential piece of greenhouse hip board hardware ensures a smooth, flush connection.
By connecting two lengths of base channel tightly, the wiggle wire base splice plate creates a seamless joint that prevents snags and tears in your greenhouse poly covering. The heavy-grade aluminum construction provides a durable backbone to handle tension across your structures.
Installation is straightforward: use vice grips to clamp the double wirelock base connector behind your channels and secure it with TEK screws. This simple step protects your poly investment and keeps your continuous wirelock track perfectly aligned.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you install a splice plate for double wirelock?
A: Clamp the splice plate behind the two base channels using vice grips, ensuring they sit flush. Then, drive self-tapping TEK screws through the face of the wirelock channel directly into the splice plate to secure the joint.
Q: Do I need a splice plate for every joint in my wiggle wire base?
A: Yes, we recommend using a wiggle wire base splice plate at every joint to prevent sharp edges from snagging your poly and to maintain the structural integrity of your continuous run.
Q: What is the difference between single and double wirelock channels?
A: Single wirelock holds one or two layers of poly with a single wiggle wire track, while a double-channel poly lock connector offers two separate tracks—ideal for securing roll-up sides, shade cloth, or insect netting independently from your main cover.
