Stop re-screening the same bottom panel
Kick Plate Installation for Screen Enclosures & Doors
Some screen panels never had a chance: the bottom of every door, the wall behind the grill, the stretch where the dog runs the fence line. Re-screening those every season is a subscription nobody signed up for — and it adds up fast.

What This Covers
Kick plates end it. A solid aluminum sheet, color-matched to your frame, takes the place of the vulnerable lower section of the panel — shrugging off paws, chair legs, soccer balls, and string trimmers. As a bonus, they give the enclosure a cleaner, more finished line right at the base. Call for a quick measure and a firm price.
What’s in the Job
The classic install: the lower quarter of each screen door plated so foot traffic quits eating your mesh.
Full bottom-row runs plated along dog paths, seating areas, and grill zones — wherever life keeps hitting the screen.
Bronze or white sheet matched to your existing frame, so it reads as designed-in rather than bolted-on.
Plates take the nicks from lawn crews and flung mulch that shred bottom panels in a single mowing.
Solid lower panels add a little screening from the neighbor’s yard and the walkway while you are sitting out.
Fitted to existing enclosures of any age — no need to wait for a rescreen, though pairing the two is the cheapest way to do it.
Signs It’s Time
Kick plates pay for themselves quickly if any of these sound familiar:
- You have rescreened the same lower panel more than once
- A dog or cat treats the bottom screen as a door
- Lawn-care visits regularly leave nicks in bottom mesh
- Chair and table legs keep punching through at floor level
- You would like a cleaner, more finished look at the base of the cage
Pricing, Straight Up
Kick plates are priced by size — door plates and lower-wall runs are quoted after a quick measure. Bundle them with a rescreen or a door repair and they cost less, since we are already on site and set up.

Our Process
-
Measure & match
We measure the target panels and match plate color to your frame finish.
-
Fabricate
Plates cut to size with clean edges — every opening in a cage is slightly different, and stock sizes show it.

Install with stainless fasteners
Plates mounted with stainless hardware and sealed edges; surrounding mesh re-tensioned as needed.
-
Final look
Straight lines, matched color, no raw edges. Most installs are done in a couple of hours.
Kick Plates Questions
Will kick plates block the breeze on my patio?
Barely. Plates cover only the bottom 12–24 inches of the panels you choose, well below where you sit — so the breeze through the rest of the enclosure carries on exactly as before.
Can kick plates be added to an older enclosure?
Yes — they retrofit onto virtually any aluminum cage, whatever its age. If the lower frame has corrosion, we will flag it for you first, since the plates need to anchor into sound metal.
Do kick plates come in colors other than white?
Bronze and white cover nearly every South Florida enclosure, and we match yours. Other finishes can be ordered when a job calls for it.
