Warranty
2 year warranty on pet screen material
Black Creek corridor homes in Clay County almost all have screened lanais — and a lot of them have dogs. That combination ends badly for standard 18x14 fiberglass. A 70-pound Lab pushing on a lower panel in 32065 will blow the spline groove inside of three months. Phifer's 7x7 vinyl-coated polyester pet mesh is the fix that actually holds, and it's what we install throughout Lakeside.
Most of Lakeside was built out from the late 1990s through the 2010s — ranch-style homes and two-story colonials with attached screened lanais, concentrated in the 32065 zip code. Subdivisions off Blanding Boulevard and Henley Road typically run medium-to-large pool cages with a super-gutter along the roofline. That cage size means more linear footage of lower kick-plate panels — which is exactly where dogs and cats do the most damage.
Common Pet Screen Installation Issues in Lakeside
Dog Pressure Pops the Spline Before the Mesh Even Tears
On most Lakeside enclosures the lower panels sit in a spline groove on an extruded anodized aluminum 2x2 frame. A dog pushing or scratching the corner forces the spline out of the channel before the fiberglass actually rips. Once the spline backs out, the panel billows and mosquitoes move in. Replacing with 7x7 vinyl-coated polyester pet mesh and seating the spline tighter solves both problems at once.
Cats Climb and Shred Mid-Panel — Then Moisture Gets In the Frame
Cats don't stop at the kick-plate level — they scale. Standard 18x14 fiberglass tears at claw puncture points along mid-panel edges, and those small openings wick moisture into the spline groove and accelerate aluminum corrosion on older cage frames. Phifer pet screen stops the initial puncture damage and keeps the frame channel dry. Homes near Lakeside's wet retention areas see this faster.
Multiple Dogs Take Out a Full Kick-Plate Section in One Summer
Larger lots off Henley Road and back toward the Black Creek Ravines Conservation Area tend to have more than one dog. Two German Shepherds or a pair of rescue mutts means the entire lower kick-plate section — typically the bottom 24 to 36 inches of your cage — gets gutted before fall. A full kick-plate kit with 7x7 vinyl-coated polyester is the only replacement worth doing once.
Frequently Asked Questions

What mesh do you use for pet screen, and how is it different from standard?▼
