June 11, 20256 Tips for Customizing Your Outdoor Space
- as a New Floridian -
If you’re new to Florida, welcome to the Sunshine State! You’re probably excited to enjoy the warm weather and outdoor living that Florida is famous for. But before you set up your dream outdoor space, there are a few things longtime Floridians know that you might not. From pesky bugs to hurricane-proofing, here’s how to create an outdoor area that’s beautiful, comfortable, and built to last.
1️⃣ Keep the Bugs Out (Because They're Relentless!)
Florida’s warm climate means you can enjoy your porch year-round—but so can mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and other insects. If you’re not used to Florida’s bug season (which is pretty much all year), you’ll quickly realize why most homeowners enclose their outdoor spaces. Our cut-proof Fortress Screens keep bugs out while allowing fresh air to flow through, so you can enjoy your outdoor space without constantly swatting away pests.
2️⃣ Stay Safe from Curious Wildlife
You’ve probably heard about Florida’s alligators, but did you know they can wander into backyards? Raccoons, snakes, and even iguanas are also common visitors. A secure enclosure adds an extra layer of protection, so you can relax on your patio without worrying about unwanted guests.
3️⃣ Prepare for Hurricane Season from Day One
Hurricanes are part of Florida living, and protecting your home’s “envelope” (windows, doors, and porches) is key to minimizing storm damage. Fortress Screens are impact-proof and designed to withstand extreme winds, helping you fortify your home and outdoor space before the first storm warning rolls in.
4️⃣ Block the Harsh Sun (While Keeping the View!)
Florida’s sunshine is wonderful, but it can also fade furniture, overheat your space, and drive up energy bills. Installing UV-blocking Fortress Screens helps reduce heat, keeping your patio cool and comfortable while still letting in natural light. Plus, they add privacy without sacrificing visibility.
5️⃣ Upgrade Your Home's Value & Comfort
Enclosing your patio isn’t just about protection—it’s about enhancing your lifestyle. A screened-in porch or lanai extends your living space, making it the perfect spot for morning coffee, sunset dinners, or entertaining guests. And because Fortress Screens are backed by a warranty, your investment is built to last.
6️⃣ Keep Pets In—Safely and Securely
Your new outdoor space should be a haven for the whole family—including your pets! Whether you have a curious cat or an energetic dog, Fortress Screens provide peace of mind. Our screens are tough enough to withstand scratching, clawing, and even high-energy leaps—so your pets stay safely inside without compromising your view or airflow. No torn screens. No escapes. Just a secure, breezy space everyone can enjoy.
