Screened-In Spaces For The Breeze, Not The Bugs

Fresh air, warm sunshine, and the sound of nature make spending time outdoors feel like a luxury—until the buzzing and biting begin. As beautiful as a backyard can be, it’s hard to relax when flies, mosquitoes, and other pests invade your space. That’s where screened-in patios come in. These practical, attractive enclosures allow you to enjoy the breeze while keeping the bugs out.

Screened-in spaces have quickly become one of the most popular upgrades for homeowners looking to enhance their outdoor living experience. These structures create a protected zone that still feels open to the outdoors. They add comfort, increase usability, and serve as a smart way to blend function with lifestyle.

At Duralum, we provide high-quality aluminum screen rooms and patio enclosures that hold up in desert climates and look beautiful for years. We design systems that protect against pests and sun exposure while allowing airflow and light to move freely. Our products are built to match your home’s aesthetic and are engineered for strength, style, and easy maintenance.

 Protection From Insects Without Losing Fresh Air

Screens provide a physical barrier between you and biting pests. Unlike solid walls or glass, they let fresh air in while keeping flies, gnats, and mosquitoes out. This allows families to dine, read, or relax outdoors without constant swatting and discomfort.

Added Comfort Without Sacrificing The View

Screened walls preserve sightlines to the garden, pool, or open landscape. They create a more connected outdoor experience than a fully enclosed room while providing just enough separation to reduce distractions and increase privacy.

Cooler Shade With Continuous Airflow

Screens block the direct sun, which helps lower the temperature under your patio cover. Combined with natural airflow, the space stays cooler and more comfortable, even during warmer months. You can enjoy extended outdoor time without overheating.

Extended Usable Living Space

A screened-in patio serves as a bonus room. It can function as a dining area, lounge zone, reading nook, or play space for kids and pets. The structure expands your living space without a complete room addition, often without requiring major changes to your home’s footprint.

Increased Property Value

Potential buyers see screen enclosures as a desirable feature. They signal a functional, well-maintained outdoor area that is easy to use throughout the seasons. This makes your home stand out and may boost resale appeal.

Better Cleanliness And Less Outdoor Mess

With screens in place, less debris gets tracked inside. Leaves, dust, and insects stay out of your living areas. The enclosed space also stays cleaner longer, reducing maintenance and allowing furniture to remain in good condition.

UV Protection For Furniture And Flooring

Screens help reduce exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade outdoor cushions, rugs, and wood. By softening UV intensity, you protect your furniture and flooring investments and keep the space looking newer for longer.

Added Safety For Pets And Kids

A screened-in area offers a space for pets and young children to play without worrying. It acts as a barrier that prevents small animals from getting out or unwanted critters from getting in.

Custom Designs That Match Your Home

Modern screen enclosures can be customized to fit a variety of home styles. From classic to contemporary, these structures can include trim accents, lighting options, and ceiling fans that enhance form and function.

Minimal Maintenance With Durable Materials

Today’s aluminum screen rooms are engineered for durability and resistance to weather. They don’t rust, warp, or require frequent repainting. A quick rinse is often all it takes to keep them looking great.

Built To Let The Outdoors In—Without The Drawbacks

Creating a screened-in patio is one of the easiest ways to bring everyday comfort to your outdoor living area. It opens up new ways to use your backyard while reducing exposure to heat, bugs, and mess. At Duralum, we make this upgrade even easier with screen systems designed for long-lasting performance and low upkeep.
