Florida Glass Screens in Port Charlotte, FL
Privacy and Protection for Your Outdoor Enclosure
Sometimes, you need more than a standard screen. If your enclosure is close to neighbors, or if you want to block wind-driven rain and debris, Florida Glass is the solution. At Elite Screening, we install and replace Florida Glass screens in Port Charlotte, FL, providing homeowners with privacy, protection, and durability.
Florida Glass is a laminated, opaque screen material that functions like a privacy wall while still fitting seamlessly into your enclosure. Perfect for the lower panels of pool cages and patios, it adds comfort, security, and convenience to your outdoor living space.
What Is Florida Glass?
Florida Glass is a special type of laminated screen made with fiberglass mesh and a solid, opaque finish. Unlike standard mesh, it doesn’t allow airflow, but it does provide a barrier against visibility, water, and debris.
Key features include:
Opaque finish for maximum privacy
Water-resistant surface
Durable fiberglass construction
Fits standard screen enclosure frames
Easy to clean and maintain
It’s often used in combination with standard mesh to create an enclosure that balances airflow and privacy.
