This Cape Coral pool cage follows the angled house footprint with a dark bronze Mansard frame and No-See-Um mesh. Two 30 ft front Picture View spans preserve the waterfront outlook. A 5-inch Super Gutter, diagonal cable bracing, and two screen doors complete the enclosure around the pool and paver deck.
Project Phoenix
Project Value: $150,000
Project Overview
<p>In Cape Coral, a waterfront pool called for an enclosure shaped around the existing home. The homeowners on SW 52nd Street wanted insect protection around the pool and deck without losing the open water view. The result was a dark bronze screen pool cage with a Mansard roof and a custom footprint following the angled house wall. The final drawing sets a 60 ft front width, variable depth, and 8 ft 4 in walls.</p>
<p>The Mansard roof gives the structure its signature profile, adding headroom and a finished appearance that complements the property. The frame uses 2 x 6 roof members, with 2 x 10 beams and 6 x 6 posts supporting two front Picture View spans of 30 ft each. These broad openings keep the waterfront visible from the pool deck.</p>
<p>Water management was a core design consideration. A 5-inch Super Gutter connects the enclosure along the existing roofline, following the change in direction at the house. Diagonal cable bracing supports the frame. Two screen doors provide access between the enclosed deck and the surrounding yard.</p>
<p>The enclosure is screened with No-See-Um mesh, selected for protection against small biting insects while retaining ventilation and visibility. Screen panels cover the walls and Mansard roof around the pool and paver deck, bringing the swimming and seating areas inside one continuous enclosure.</p>
<p>Homeowners considering a similar project can explore our pool screen enclosures and custom screen enclosures in Cape Coral.</p>
<p>Permitting was completed within 18 days, and the full build was finished in approximately four weeks. The project was completed on October 29, 2024, delivering a screened waterfront pool area with two broad viewing spans. The project cost around $21,000.</p>
Before & After
Video Heading
Once the design and engineering documentation were complete, the permit package was prepared and submitted for review. Our team coordinated the required plans and supporting documents for the Cape Coral pool enclosure, addressing the structural details of the Mansard frame, Picture View beam layout, Super Gutter connection, and access doors. The permit was approved within 18 days, allowing the project to move into material preparation and construction.
How We Did It
Project #732 followed a complete design-build process, beginning with an on-site consultation and precise measurements of the Cape Coral pool area. After the materials and custom layout were approved, our team created the 3D visualization and engineering documentation for the dark bronze Mansard enclosure with two front Picture View spans. The permit was approved within 18 days, followed by material preparation and installation. After the required final inspection and client walkthrough, the completed pool cage was placed under warranty and ongoing company support.
Design, Permits & Project Planning
Project #732 required careful planning to design a custom pool cage for the waterfront Cape Coral property. Engineering drawings established the Mansard roof geometry, 2 x 6 roof members, 2 x 10 front beams, 6 x 6 posts, 5-inch Super Gutter connection, and two screen doors. The 3D visualization confirmed the enclosure proportions, screen wall layout, and structural configuration before installation. Together with the site plan, these documents supported Florida code compliance, accurate fabrication, and permit approval within 18 days.
