Commercial · Durham, NC
Keep patios, pool areas, and outdoor dining usable with a commercial screen enclosure built to take daily traffic. Durham Screens (serving since 2018) installs and repairs aluminum enclosures, screen panels, screen doors, and roof systems for businesses across Durham.
A commercial screen enclosure lasts longer when the base is square, plumb, and anchored correctly. We start with an on-site evaluation of the slab, deck, or existing footings, check for out-of-square corners, and verify attachment points for posts, beams, and roof members. For repairs, we identify what failed first (loose fasteners, racked frames, corroded hardware, torn spline channels) so we fix the cause, not just the symptom. Work is staged to keep entrances, walkways, and tenant areas clear, and we protect storefront glass, furniture, and equipment before cutting or re-screening.
Durham’s heat, pollen, and storm cycles are hard on screening, especially at high-traffic openings. We install commercial-grade insect screen and specialty mesh options like pet-resistant screen, solar screen, and no-see-um mesh where smaller insects are a problem. Frames and roof sections are built and reinforced with aluminum members, new corner brackets, and stainless or coated fasteners where needed, then re-tensioned with fresh spline for tight, ripple-free panels. Finish details matter for businesses, we tune door closers and latches, align sliding tracks, replace worn kick plates, and seal common entry points that let bugs in around thresholds and corners.
Durham customers choose us because we treat a commercial screen enclosure like an operational system, not a weekend add-on. You get clear scheduling, clean job sites, and a plan that accounts for customers, staff, and deliveries, including after-hours or phased work when the site demands it. Our crews handle both installation and repair, from re-screening single bays to rebuilding damaged sections after impact or wind, and we document what we changed so facility managers can track maintenance. Durham Screens is licensed and insured, and we provide free written estimates so you can compare scope and materials line by line.
Before we wrap up, we do a walkthrough with your point of contact to confirm fit, function, and appearance. We check screen tension, frame alignment, door operation, hardware tightness, and any roof-to-wall transitions that could leak or rattle. You receive the written scope, materials used, and care guidance (what cleaners to avoid, how to keep tracks clear, and when to re-tension or re-screen high-wear areas). If we repaired an existing commercial screen enclosure, we’ll also call out remaining weak points so you can plan future upgrades instead of getting surprised mid-season.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after reviewing the site and confirming materials, openings, and hardware needs.
Yes. Durham Screens is licensed and insured for screening work, and we can confirm details during scheduling.
In most cases, yes. We can typically match common mesh colors like charcoal or gray and coordinate frame components, spline, and hardware to blend with existing assemblies.
Small repairs can often be completed in a single visit. Larger rescreening and porch projects vary by scope, number of openings, and any needed frame or carpentry repairs.
Yes. We troubleshoot sagging doors, misaligned hinges, worn closers, latches, and sweeps, then repair or replace the hardware and rescreen as needed.
A commercial screen enclosure helps restaurants, apartments, hotels, offices, and community facilities keep outdoor areas comfortable while reducing insects, debris, and cleaning time. Durham Screens installs new enclosures and restores existing structures with practical upgrades that hold up to daily use, frequent door cycles, and changing weather. Whether you need a new build, re-screening, or structural corrections, we focus on durable aluminum framing, tight screen tension, and reliable hardware so your space stays open for business.
Commercial screen enclosure projects often fail at the details, loose corners, sagging panels, bent tracks, or doors that do not self-close. Our process starts with measurement and condition checks, then we correct alignment, replace worn hardware, and re-screen with new spline for consistent tension. For new installations, we plan post locations, roof layout, and openings to match how people actually move through the space, including service access and ADA considerations where applicable.
Need a targeted repair instead of a full replacement? We handle torn screen panels, broken corners, damaged door assemblies, and wind or impact damage. You can specify screen type by performance, standard fiberglass insect screen for value, no-see-um mesh for smaller pests, solar screen for glare reduction, or pet-resistant mesh for higher abrasion areas. We can also upgrade problem openings with better latches, closers, and threshold sealing to cut down on insect entry at the most-used doors.
