Screened In Porch Systems

This screened patio kit is a "materials supplied" screen room system designed to add beauty and functional 3 season living space to your home. Materials for your kit will either shipped in their stock length of 24' or in some cases may need to be cut down to cut down to 12' lengths to meet carrier maximums. As a DIY product, it is expected that you will need to make final cuts on site. This includes, but is not limited to, beam lengths, post heights, panel widths, side fascia/front gutter lengths and wall system mainframe/u-channel lengths. All material is extruded aluminum, and will be supplied in up to 4 different profiles depending on your application. A moderate level of DIY construction experience is recommended.

We will suggest a screen panel width of 29" to 84" wide depending on the width of your existing openings. We will also lay this out so that the spacing is aesthetically pleasing all the way around. In other words we will avoid having 29" openings on one wall and 42" openings on an adjacent wall. You will receive a drawing from us indicating all the mainframe placements.

• All aluminum extrusions, screen, spline hardware and accessories for the screen enclosure
• Screen walls frame in White, Sandstone, Wheat, Bronze, or Tan
• Designed for "on site" final cuts by you! Cutsheet provided
• Extruded Aluminum Side Fascia and Gutters

Uchannels are installed first. U channels are installed on the top and bottom horizontal surfaces (floor & underside of existing structure) and on all vertical surfaces (house wall or existing posts).

2" x 2" or 2" x 3" mainframes are installed next used vertically with their spacing indicated by red squares in your quotation drawing. If there is no kick-plate in your application, you will also be using the 2" x 2" frames as horizontal "chair rails" between the verticals.

The 1" x 2" or 1" x 3" mainframe are also used vertically and are indicated by green squares in your quotation drawing. These will also be installed in the U channels both on the floor and on the underside of your roof. If you have opted for the kick-plate, they will also cap the top of your kick-plate. You are now ready to screen in the opening!

• You are supplied with everything "internal" to your kit. You will need to supply the hardware to attach u-channel to house wall, posts, cement, deck or underside of roof line.
• Sealant / caulking is not supplied.
• Downspout assemblies are not part of this kit.

Delivery time of your patio cover can vary by season, location and demand. As a general rule of thumb, you can expect to receive the order within 3-4 weeks. This may increase to 5-6 weeks during peak season from April to July or if ordering non stocked items such as 6" panels or .032" skin panels. More standard sizes that are stocked can be delivered in less than a week during non peak times. We will do our best to provide an accurate time line on order to assist with your planning, but these are never guaranteed since there are many variables in the complex supply chain. Full details on receiving the orders can be found on our delivery instructions page. Please also feel free to call us to discuss or for updates at any time.
