Are there frames blocking the view? We can convert existing pool cages into a picture window, which we recently did for a client in Naples. After Ms. Harrison saw our picture window projects online, she called us to re-engineer her pool cage for the ultimate view.

She availed our Silver Clearview Conversion, so we converted the entire front wall into a picture window. But before we got started, we first had to prepare the permits, engineering, and site plans. We can efficiently get this process done and get permits faster than anyone else.

After obtaining the permits, we head on-site. This picture window has a span size of 44′ and we were able to convert it by utilizing existing vertical posts, dramatically increasing the structural integrity. We used concrete fasteners and Superscreen 17/20 or No-See-Um for the mesh. This screen is thicker and tighter than a standard screen, which makes it look darker, but it doesn’t change the outward visibility. If you look at the before and after photo, it even looks clearer, especially since there are no more frames obstructing the view.

We also installed kick plates on the return walls and screened-in the area above with new mesh. This will help keep the dirt out and protects the enclosure from pets and lawn equipment.

Doesn’t it look better with a Clearview configuration? It took us one week to complete this project. Our client is happy that there are no more frames blocking her view.
