Universal outdoor wood screws

This collection features universal exterior wood screws, designed for a wide range of outdoor construction and installation tasks. These screws are suitable for softwood and many hardwood species, making them ideal for terraces, fences, façades, pergolas, garden structures, carports, roof battens and general timber construction.

Universal exterior screws typically come with a corrosion-resistant coating or in stainless steel, providing long-term protection against moisture, UV exposure and changing temperatures. Deep wood threads ensure high pull-out resistance, while sharp, often self-drilling or cut points reduce the need for pre-drilling and help prevent splitting near edges. A TX (Torx) drive offers secure bit engagement and fast, slip-free installation, even when working in awkward positions.

Most screws feature countersunk or reduced heads, allowing the screw to sink neatly below the wood surface for a clean finish and easier subsequent coating (paint, oil, stain). Whether you’re building new outdoor structures or carrying out repairs and upgrades, these universal exterior screws give you a reliable, flexible fastening solution for everyday wood-to-wood connections outside.
