Why Aluminum Screens Are Perfect for Florida Homes

Built for the Florida Climate

Aluminum screens stand up to heat, humidity, and hurricanes. When you live in Central Florida, you need materials that can handle intense UV exposure, constant moisture, and sudden storms. Unlike other materials that may rot, warp, or sag, aluminum screens keep their shape and performance season after season.

What Makes Aluminum the Best Choice?

Aluminum is the go-to for Florida homeowners for good reason. It’s a smart investment that pays off in longevity, strength, and minimal upkeep.

Rust-Resistant in Humid Environments

Florida’s humid air can corrode metal quickly — but aluminum is naturally rust-resistant, making it ideal for coastal and inland homes alike.

Strong but Lightweight for Large Structures

Whether you’re enclosing a spacious lanai or a large pool area, aluminum offers strength without the bulk. That means better support without overloading your existing patio or deck.

Long-Lasting with Minimal Maintenance

Aluminum doesn’t crack, warp, or degrade like wood or plastic. A simple rinse every now and then keeps it looking great for years. That’s a big win for busy homeowners.
