Gabled Screen Room

A Typical Gabled Screen Room
with a double pitched roof

A view looking
out of a gabled
screen room without kick
plate.
When
people want a screen
room with more
architectural style than
the traditional screen
room, the
gabled screen room is
usually their first
choice. Higher ceilings
provide a more open feel
than the traditional
screen room, and the
gabled designs
complements most
architectural styles
perfectly. Best of all,
the gabled screen room
is usually only slightly
more expensive and
construction is only
slightly more
complicated than the
traditional style screen
room. The
materials package for
the gabled screen room can be
customized in a
virtually unlimited
number of ways to
provide you with a
finished screen room
just right for your
needs*. Typical features
generally include:
-
A room sized to
your
requirements and
designed to meet
current Florida
wind loading
requirements.
-
A double pitched
roof affording
you higher
ceiling heights
and
better views
from the room.
(If you already
have a roof and
need
screen
walls
only, click

screen walls.)
-
A roof made of
either
structural
insulated roof
panels or roof
pans with
various fascia &
gutter options.
Fan beams
available.
-
Usually with a
roof pitch of 3
in 12 or
greater, you can
apply
roof shingles to
the insulated
roof panels (not
roof pans) to
match the
existing roof of
your house.
Shingles are
attached
using
construction
adhesive, not
nails, and the
shingles are
cosmetic only
and not needed
for
waterproofing.
-
1,2, or 3 (or
more) screen
walls depending
on the
configuration
of your room.
-
White or bronze
colored
materials for
walls. Both cost
the same.
-
Durable and
virtually
maintenance free
aluminum
materials.
-
Kick plate in
one of 3
standard heights
- 16", 24", &
36", or you
can choose a
custom height or
no kick plate.
-
The number of
screen doors you
want as well as
their location.
Screen doors can
be out swing
(most common) or
in swing. Doors
include hardware
such as the
latch, bug
sweep, and
closure.
-
In addition, our
material
packages also
include screen,
spline (holds
screen in
place), screws,
concrete
fasteners, angle
brackets, and
more.
-
Our most popular
option is for us
to precut the
materials for
you. This
virtually
eliminates
having to cut
the structural
materials on the
job site. You
wind up with as
close to a bolt
together project
as possible.
Remember, gabled screen rooms
built from our material
packages are easy to
build even if you have
no previous experience
working with aluminum.
And since we use the
exact same materials
professional contractors
use, your result is a
finished screen room
just like a contractor
would build, but at a
fraction of the price.

*Gabled screen rooms may
not work in all
situations and may also
have additional design
considerations when
compared to the
traditional screen room.
