Patio Screens in Plantation, Broward — AB Aluminum & Screens

Why screen in a patio in Plantation instead of leaving it open?

Plantation sits inland, so patios fight brutal sun and thick mosquito and no-see-um swarms drifting off the canals near Jacaranda and Plantation Acres rather than salt air. Screening in your lanai or covered patio blocks bugs and glare while adding real living space. Most enclosures run $3,700–$5,100 installed, about $22/sq ft.

Custom Patio Screen Enclosures Built for Plantation Homes

Neighborhoods we serve: Jacaranda · Plantation Acres · Plantation Isles · Melrose Park · Central Park · Fig Tree Island

Plantation sits miles inland, so your patio deals with long hours of direct sun and thick swarms of mosquitoes and no-see-ums drifting off the canals that wind through Jacaranda and Plantation Acres, not a coastal breeze. Screening in that space with a powder-coated aluminum frame keeps the bugs, pollen, and yard debris out while cutting the UV glare that makes an open patio unusable by mid-afternoon. Whether it's a bare concrete pad or an already-roofed lanai, the goal is the same: shaded, usable square footage you can actually sit in.

Most Plantation homes already have a covered patio, porch, or under-truss area, so we typically build the screen frame right off that existing roofline rather than starting from scratch — faster, and it keeps the house's lines intact. On the wide equestrian lots of Plantation Acres, homeowners often screen in a full outdoor room around the grill and dining table. Closer to Plantation Isles or Melrose Park, a tighter no-see-um mesh and a screened pet door keep dogs contained without losing the view to the yard.

Because Broward County is a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, a permanent screen enclosure here isn't a big-box kit — it needs sealed engineering, Florida Product Approval, and a frame rated to 175 mph winds. We handle all of it: drawings, the City of Plantation permit, inspections, and the architectural-review packet that communities like Jacaranda and Fig Tree Island require. With 500+ South Florida projects and our own crew on every install, one accountable team takes you from first sketch to final sign-off.

Most Plantation screen enclosures run $3,700–$5,100 installed, or about $22/sq ft, depending on the footprint, mesh type, and whether you're screening an open patio or converting an existing covered lanai. Your free 3D design comes with a written, itemized quote so there are no surprises.

Permits & engineering

Plantation falls under Broward County's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so any permanent aluminum screen enclosure needs a building permit, sealed engineering drawings, and a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval rated to 175 mph winds. We pull the permit through the City of Plantation Building Department and manage every inspection for you.

We screen in patios across Broward every week — from lanai enclosures near the canals of Jacaranda to wide under-truss screen rooms on the acre lots of Plantation Acres. Our crews know the City of Plantation's permit process and the architectural-review packets local HOAs expect, so your project clears review and passes inspection without back-and-forth.

Screen Room Styles We Build

We design each screen room to your home and how you want to use the space:

  • Lanai — roofed, partially enclosed outdoor room; the most common South Florida configuration.
  • Wrap-around — runs along multiple sides of the home for larger covered footprints.
  • Attached porch enclosure — encloses an existing porch with screen panels and a structural aluminum frame.
  • Pool-side screen room — connects your living space to the pool deck while keeping insects out.

Screen Mesh Options

The right mesh depends on where you live and how you use the space:

  • Standard 18×14 fiberglass — the all-purpose choice for most South Florida patios.
  • No-see-um mesh — tighter weave for canal-front and coastal areas with sandflies.
  • Pet-resistant mesh — stands up to claws and lean-against pressure.
  • Privacy / solar mesh — reduces visibility and heat on exposed patios.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to screen in a patio in Plantation?

Yes. Broward County is a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so a permanent aluminum screen enclosure needs a building permit, sealed engineering, and Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval rated to 175 mph winds. We pull the permit through the City of Plantation Building Department and handle every inspection.

Can you screen in my existing covered patio or lanai?

Yes — most Plantation projects enclose a patio, lanai, or under-truss area that's already roofed. We frame it with powder-coated aluminum and screen panels engineered to code, so you get bug-free, shaded space without touching your existing roofline.

What screen mesh options work best in Plantation?

Standard 18x14 mesh covers most yards, but no-see-um screen is worth the upgrade near Jacaranda's canals and Plantation Acres' canal-fed lots where biting gnats are heavier. Pet-resistant super-screen holds up better if dogs or cats use the enclosure daily.

Can a screen room later become a Florida room?

Often, yes. If the aluminum frame and footing are engineered for it upfront, we can swap screen panels for insulated solid panels and glass down the road, converting the space into a fully enclosed, air-conditioned Florida room without rebuilding the structure.
