Solar Screens
Solar screens is a dark, tightly woven mesh that goes outside your porch or patio’s frame. The mesh’s pattern deflects the sun’s brightness to prevent glare and UV damage on your porch or patio. These solar screens can block a significant amount of heat from warming up your property. They don’t completely remove sunlight from your porch, they only take away the sun’s harmful effects to make it more pleasant to be outside. Call Pool screens R Us – 863-547-4210 for a free quote
Pet Screens
Pet screen is made from vinyl-coated polyester which means that it is seven times stronger than fiberglass and aluminum screening material; pet screen can withstand claws, teeth, and other stresses that pets put on screens, making them perfect for replacement window screens and screen doors.

Pet Doors For Your Pool Screen Enclosure Cage
Yes, we also install pet doors, and even though we love and enjoy our pets, they are a lot of responsibility. So what can we do to ease that responsibility and still offer our pet the option of going outdoors? A pet door in the lanai, patio, or pool cage enclosure gives pets the joy of being protected, and able to go out and do their business, yet frees the pet owner from having to be their doorman continually.
A screened-in porch with a pet door is the perfect solution for homeowners who want to keep their furry friends close but not too far away. Not only does this provide an easy way into your home, it also keeps other critters out should they happen upon the yard!
