Why Choose Charcoal Fiberglass Porch Screen Panels?

Here's what's included with every custom porch screen panel:

• Insect Protection — Keeps flies, mosquitoes, and other pests out of your porch space
• Durable Aluminum Frame — Heavy-duty ½-inch aluminum frame built for long-term outdoor use
• Custom Sizing — Manufactured to your exact measurements in our Denver-based warehouse
• Installation Flexibility — Install permanently with screws or use casement clips for seasonal removal
• Six Frame Color Options — Black, white, almond, beige, bronze, and mill (silver)
• Year-Round Use — Screen panels for porches can stay up all year or be removed for cleaning and season changes
• Ready to Install — Ships fully assembled and ready to mount

About Charcoal Fiberglass Screen Mesh

Charcoal fiberglass screen is the standard choice for porch enclosures and provides dependable everyday insect protection. It's a budget-friendly mesh that works well for covered porches and patios with moderate use.

A few things worth knowing about this mesh type:

• Good visibility — Charcoal color reduces glare and improves outward sightlines compared to gray mesh
• Sun exposure — UV exposure can cause fiberglass to become brittle over time; Metro Screenworks uses porch-grade charcoal fiberglass screen designed to hold up better than standard window screen mesh
• Durability — Wind, debris, and critter claws can wear mesh down; for higher-traffic spaces or homes with pets, consider upgrading to a more durable option

Want more from your fiberglass porch screen panel? Metro Screenworks also offers panels with BetterVue invisible screen, Super Screen, and AllergyGuard mesh for upgraded performance.

Is Black or Gray Screen Better?

Black screen — like our charcoal fiberglass screen — provides the best outward visibility. Both colors offer the same level of insect protection, but black absorbs more light, which significantly reduces glare and makes it easier to see through from the inside.

If visibility is a priority for your porch, charcoal fiberglass porch screen panels are a smart choice.

How Long Do Fiberglass Porch Screen Panels Last?

The lifespan of fiberglass porch screen panels depends largely on the wear and tear they receive. Wind, hail, tree debris, and critter claws can all break down the mesh over time. Sun exposure tends to be the most significant factor, as UV rays can cause charcoal fiberglass screen to become brittle with extended outdoor use.

Metro Screenworks uses porch-grade fiberglass mesh in our porch screening panels, which is designed to perform better than standard window screen mesh. For high-exposure areas or heavily used porches, an upgrade to Super Screen, which is 3x stronger than standard fiberglass and may be worth considering.

Easy Installation for Any Porch

Our custom porch screen panels are designed to be installed by homeowners or professional contractors with minimal tools. Each panel ships fully assembled and ready to mount using your preferred method.
