Isn’t it annoying when you spend time in your outdoor area but bugs keep pestering you? That’s why this week, we built a new enclosure for a client in Naples. They wanted to have an insect-free outdoor space, so they called us to install an enclosure.

But first, we had to obtain permits and work on the engineering and site plans. After doing more than enclosure projects, we can efficiently get this process done and get permits faster than anyone else. We also have a dedicated project manager, so our client can just relax and not worry about the details.

Once we get the permits, we head on-site. Most of the structure was prefabricated in our facility, while the rest were done with site-specific cut and leveling. The frames have a white 2604 Powder Coat Finish, which will help it withstand the harsh Florida sun and outdoor elements. To ensure the longevity and structural integrity of the structure, we used Blue-Tap Fasteners, which come with a 10-year warranty, and Tapcons Tru-Stainless. For the screen, we installed Super Screen 14/17. This is a durable mesh that also comes with a 10-year warranty. It is three times stronger than the standard screen and suitable for large openings, such as this enclosure. We used a Clearview Configuration of members, giving our client the ultimate view.

Doesn’t it look great without the frames blocking the view? We completed this project in less than a week. Our client is glad that they won’t have to worry about bugs invading their outdoor space anymore.
