Custom Screen Doors
Professional custom screen door installations for pool enclosures and patios
Professional Custom Screen Door Design & Installation
Aces Up Screens has been designing and installing custom screen doors for pool enclosures, patios, and outdoor living spaces throughout South Florida for over 30 years. As a Florida-licensed contractor (CC# 20-AL-21822-X), we specialize in heavy-duty, commercial-grade screen doors built to withstand Florida's demanding climate and daily use by families and pets.
Unlike builder-grade screen doors that typically fail within 5-7 years, our custom doors are constructed using heavy-gauge aluminum frames with .080" to .125" wall thickness, commercial-grade self-closing hinge systems rated for 10,000+ cycles, and stainless steel hardware that will never rust in South Florida's coastal environment. The result is a superior door that operates smoothly for 15-20 years providing reliable daily service.
Our gallery showcases various door configurations from single swing doors perfect for standard pool enclosure entrances to elegant double French doors for grand outdoor living space access and heavy-duty sliding door systems for large lanai openings. Every door is custom-fabricated to exact measurements ensuring perfect fit, smooth operation, and long-term reliability backed by our comprehensive 5-year workmanship warranty.
