Top 4 Reasons to Choose Structall Aluminum Screen Enclosure Materials

At a glance, screen enclosures all look the same. After all, these enclosures are all made to allow air and light to pass through easily while simultaneously blocking insects and other elements. However, it may be surprising to know that not all screen enclosures are made equally. In fact, the quality of the materials can have a big impact on the lifespan of the enclosure. This is why Dulando Screen & Awning is proud to work with Structall aluminum. Structall is a leader among aluminum manufacturers, offering the best high quality screens to contractors around the country.

To better understand why choosing Structall aluminum is so important, consider the following four advantages of premium aluminum screens.

  1. Durability. Screen enclosures face the elements, so it is essential that the screen enclosure contractor uses the right materials. Structall aluminum has a natural oxide coating. This coating serves as the perfect barrier, holding off the effects of almost every type of weather. This includes water, wind and salt. Aluminum also handles temperature changes well.
  2. Strength. At first, almost every screen enclosure looks good. After a few months of use, however, the signs of wear and tear can become evident. This is not the case with Structall aluminum. Structall patio covers are so strong that it is commonly used for spaceflight. In fact, it is estimated that two thirds of the aluminum products that have been manufactured are still in use. This strength is almost unprecedented, making Structall aluminum the perfect choice for any residential or commercial screen enclosure.
  3. Safety. Aluminum screens are also among the safest choices. To start with, aluminum is nontoxic, which makes it a great choice for children. Since it is not prone to corrosion, there is a lower risk of flaking and it is less likely to break or collapse. Better still, aluminum is significantly lighter than other choices like wood or steel.
  4. Environmentally friendly. On top of everything else, aluminum is a very green choice. Aluminum manufacturers can recycle aluminum almost indefinitely. More than that, aluminum is a naturally occurring element that exists in excess. Aluminum is the third most common element, making it environmentally friendly and affordable.

structallThese advantages have a real impact on the final product. When choosing a screen enclosure contractor, it is important to know what products they use in order to gauge whether they are worth hiring. A contractor who uses Structall you know will get the job done right.

If you’re looking for a screen enclosure that looks good today, tomorrow and for years to come, consider Dulando’s aluminum screen enclosures.

5 Proven Reasons Why You Need A Swimming Pool Screen Enclosure

5 Proven Reasons Why You Need A Swimming Pool Screen Enclosure

Are you considering the addition of a pool cage or a swimming pool screen enclosure?  Maybe you already have a pool installed, but no screen enclosure, because that’s the way it was when you bought your home. But lately, you’ve  noticed that most homes in your neighborhood have added a screen enclosure to their pool and patio. Why are these structures so popular in Florida?

Living in Central Florida means a life of year-round sunshine, heat, insects, wild animals and stormy weather. Each of these natural factors can take away from the enjoyment of your swimming pool. Building a pool cage helps ensure you and your family enjoy the pool year round, day and night.

5 proven reasons to build a swimming pool screen enclosure:

  1.  Turn Down The Summer Heat: Florida is known for its plentiful sunshine and hot temperatures. Building a screen enclosure helps to beat that heat. We use only top quality screen material from Phifer, an industry leader in screening products. Once installed, the  ‘Sunscreen Mesh’ will greatly reduce solar heat gain in summer. In fact, research shows it absorbs and dissipates up to 70% of the sun’s heat & glare. What does this mean for your home and family? This screen acts as a buffer between you and the heat of the sun, helping to keep you, your family and pets feeling cooler and protected from the sun’s strong rays.
  1. Add To The Value Of Your Home: Building a pool enclosure is an investment that will pay for itself on several fronts.
    1. A pool enclosure is one of the most popular additions to a home with a pool – so when it’s time to sell your home, having the swimming pool screen enclosure is a definite plus.
    2. A screen enclosure adds to the overall space of your home and outdoor living area.
    3. By attractively designing and building a quality pool screen enclosure, you enhance the overall visual appeal of your property.
  1.  Keep The Wild Side On The Outside: Due to the tropical environment, Florida teems with wildlife, even in suburban areas and neighborhoods.  By installing an enclosure around your pool and terrace, you are keeping out wildlife like frogs, lizards, snakes, rabbits, raccoons, possums and biggest concern of all – alligators. A swimming pool screen enclosure also helps to keep out flying insects like flies, hornets, bees, wasps…and mosquitos, which may carry the additional threat of West Nile Virus.  Having a screen in place protects you, your family and pets from these concerns.
  1. Cut Down On Pool Maintenance and Energy Cost: Having a pool means time and money spent on regular maintenance – from pool chemicals to cleaning materials/services and energy costs – it really adds up! A swimming pool enclosure significantly reduces time spent cleaning leaves, debris, grass clippings, dead bugs and the like from pool, filters and equipment. And because your pool water stays cleaner in general, you can cut down on the number of chemicals you need to keep your pool sparkling clean year round. Not only is this great for your pocketbook, it’s better for the environment too.
