Creating a Screened In Porch

Screened In Porch

Since a covered back porch already existed, this was a fast project. We left the existing railings and mahogany decking.

The carpenters custom built frames for the new screen panels. The panels were screened and installed. Additionally, we added a pretty screen door. This door can be locked from the inside. Now that the porch is fully secured, no little critters can come in and make a mess.

Finally, we painted the structure. All the new wood was primed and painted black to match the home. The existing steps and banister were painted as well. The screen door was given a deep red color. This matches the accent color of the home.

In just a couple of days, this project was complete. Now, this new screened-in porch can be enjoyed any time of day without worrying about mosquito bites.
