ABSTRACT:
A siding positioner/fastener that consists of a strip 40 with a continuous length, with inserts 50 coupled to it, at spaced intervals along the length of the strip. The strips are positioned and coupled to a substrate, aligning the strips perpendicular to the channel 70 length, which is parallel to the siding length, with a strip at each interval along the siding length, and with the inserts inline and parallel across each strip interval. A sloped channel is coupled to the back of the siding length. At each end the channel can slide on, or be pressed onto the inserts. The remaining inserts are pressed on. Each time an insert is locked onto the channel this aligns the following insert. When all the inserts are locked onto the channel, the siding can be moved parallel to the its length, or expand and contract its width. The insert length will allow two pieces of siding to be butted against each other on one insert.
