Screen Enclosure Materials: Aluminum Frame Options Explained

Aluminum screen enclosure frames typically come in a few finishes and profiles, from lightweight standard framing to heavier-duty options built to handle Florida's wind loads.

The mesh itself also varies, standard fiberglass screening keeps out bugs and debris, while heavier super screen options add extra durability for homes in higher-wind areas or with pets.

Choosing the right combination of frame strength and mesh type depends on your location, budget, and how much wear the enclosure needs to withstand each storm season.
