Screen Enclosures Built to Survive Hurricane Season
Traditional enclosures tear off in every major storm. Fortress Screens are stainless steel mesh in a structural aluminum frame, rated for Category 5 hurricanes and installed once.
Payments as low as $140/month with financing
Stop Rescreening After Every Storm
Standard enclosure mesh is a recurring bill. It tears in storms, degrades under UV, and gets replaced with the same material that failed the first time. Rescreening companies count on that cycle.
A Fortress enclosure ends it. The screens are metal, mounted in structural aluminum, and engineered to hold under storm loads instead of tearing away. When the storm passes, your enclosure is still standing and still screened.
One System, Every Outdoor Space
Pool Cages
Standard pool cages are engineered for the screens to tear away in high wind. Ours are engineered to hold. Fortress panels paired with thicker structural aluminum framing create a pool enclosure that does not fold, tear, or bend during hurricanes. Includes engineering plans, permits, and coordinated installation.
Lanai Screens
Keep the breeze, lose the annual repairs. Fortress lanai screens handle afternoon storms and hurricane season alike while blocking insects and reducing solar heat on the space.
Patio & Porch Enclosures
Custom-fit panels for any patio, porch, sunroom, or Florida room opening, any size or shape. Every screen is manufactured to your exact dimensions at our Florida facility.
The Math Favors Metal
Standard Rescreening
Replaces torn fiberglass mesh with more fiberglass mesh. Cheaper per visit, and it repeats: after the next major storm, after years of UV exposure, after a branch or a pet finds the weak spot.
A Fortress Enclosure
Replaces the panels with permanent stainless steel screens rated for Category 5 hurricanes. One installation, backed by a 10-year structural frame warranty. If you plan to be in your home for more than a few seasons, this is the last time you pay to screen the space.
More Than Storm Protection
Hurricane Protection
Category 5 rated and always in place. Nothing to deploy, store, or replace before a storm.
Enhanced Security
Cut-proof stainless steel mesh that stops break-in attempts at every screened opening.
Energy Savings
The mesh blocks solar heat before it reaches your space, reducing cooling costs and UV damage to furnishings.
Visibility from inside stays clear, similar to a standard window screen. From outside, the mesh reduces visibility into your space, adding privacy.

Custom Pricing, Simple Monthly Payments
- Custom-manufactured screens for every opening
- Your choice of standard frame color
- Professional installation
- Warranty coverage, including 10-year structural frame protection
Pool cages are quoted separately and include the cage structure, engineering plans, permit, and installation.
Financing through our partner Hearth has no loan origination fees. Pre-qualify online in about 60 seconds to see your monthly estimate, or get your free quote first and we will walk you through both.
Estimates are for planning purposes only and are not a quote, approval, or guarantee. Actual offers and monthly payments vary by borrower credit profile, lender, loan amount, selected term, and final approval.
Insurance and Wind Mitigation Credits
Fortress Screens are approved under the Florida Building Code as impact-rated protection. Florida Statute 627.0629 requires insurers to offer premium discounts for impact-rated products. After installation, request a wind mitigation inspection so your insurer can document the protection and apply the appropriate discount. Actual savings vary by insurer, policy, and location.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a Fortress screen enclosure really survive a hurricane?
Yes. Fortress Screens are rated for Category 5 hurricanes and approved under Florida Building Code numbers FL32125.1-R2 / FL32125.2-R2. The stainless steel mesh carries 120,000 lbs of tensile strength. Unlike standard enclosure mesh, it is designed to stay in place under storm loads.
How is this different from rescreening my existing enclosure?
Rescreening replaces torn fiberglass mesh with more fiberglass mesh, which tears again in the next storm. Fortress replaces the panels with permanent stainless steel screens. It costs more up front and ends the replacement cycle.
Can you convert my existing pool cage?
Pool cages require thicker structural aluminum framing to carry Fortress panels in a hurricane, so pool cage projects involve custom engineering, permits, and coordination with a general contractor. We handle that process with you.
Do the screens block my view or airflow?
No. From inside, visibility is similar to a standard window screen, and airflow stays breezy in normal conditions. From outside, the mesh reduces visibility into your space for added privacy.
How much does a screen enclosure cost?
Every project is custom, so pricing depends on the size, shape, and number of openings. Estimates are free, and most residential projects receive a same-day quote after the onsite measurement. Financing through Hearth offers payments as low as $140/month.
Can I pay monthly instead of all at once?
Yes. Financing is available through our partner Hearth with payments as low as $140/month and no loan origination fees. You can pre-qualify online to see your monthly estimate before your quote.
Do Fortress Screens qualify for insurance discounts?
Many customers receive premium discounts after installation. Fortress Screens are approved as impact-rated under the Florida Building Code, and Florida Statute 627.0629 requires insurers to offer discounts for impact-rated products. Ask your insurance provider about wind mitigation credits.
What warranty comes with a Fortress enclosure?
Fortress Screens carry a tiered warranty including 10 years on structural frame integrity and 5 years on the screen and frame attachment system.
Can Fortress Screens be installed on any lanai or patio?
Yes. Every screen is custom manufactured to your exact dimensions, so any size or shape of lanai, patio, porch, sunroom, or Florida room opening can be fitted.
Make Your Enclosure Permanent
One installation. No more storm damage, no more rescreening, no more finding out after the hurricane that your screens are gone.
