Most Requested · Pool Enclosures
Your pool is waiting.
Florida isn't making it easy.
Mosquitoes at dusk. Leaves on the water every morning. Debris after every storm. A pool without an enclosure is a pool you use less than you paid for. We fix that — with a structure engineered for your home, your wind zone, and the next thirty years.
The honest problem
Florida pools are beautiful. Florida without a screen is brutal.
Mosquitoes own the evening. No-see-ums get through standard screens. Debris fills the water overnight. Leaves clog your filter weekly. The sun beats the deck until it's too hot to walk on barefoot.
You didn't spend what you spent on a pool to use it three months out of the year. But that's what happens on the Panhandle without an enclosure that's actually engineered for it — not sourced from a catalog, not installed by a crew that won't answer the phone after the permit is pulled.
Northwest Florida's Pool Enclosure & Screen Room Builder. 30 Years on This Coast.
Every structure we build in The Emerald Coast is custom-engineered to your property's wind zone — stamped, permitted, and installed by the same crew who designed it.
Why ALUMINUM BUILDING SYSTEMS
Thirty years building enclosures on this coast, for this climate.
Aluminum Building Systems has been engineering pool enclosures in Northwest Florida since 1996. Eric Vanheteren started this company because the larger contractors he worked with weren't doing the job right — and thirty years later, that's still the only standard we build to.
Every pool enclosure we build is site-engineered to your property's exact wind zone, stamped by a licensed engineer, and permitted before we break ground. The same crew that designs it builds it. No subcontractors. No handoffs. And before we ever cut metal, we model your home and your enclosure in 3D — so you see exactly what you're getting.
ROOF STYLES
Three profiles. One engineering standard.
Every roof style is custom-engineered to your home — not pulled from a catalog. Choose the profile that suits your architecture and your view.
MOST POPULAR
Mansard
A low-slope profile following your roofline. Clean, understated, and common across the Panhandle.
OPEN & AIRY
Gable
A peaked A-frame profile for height and airflow — ideal where volume and light matter most.
YOUR PROPERTY
Custom
Standard profiles don't fit every site. Odd angles, irregular lots, unique rooflines — we fit.
FRAME COLORS
White
Adobe Clay
Cedar Bronze

What's at risk
The wrong enclosure costs more. Always.
Catalog-grade enclosures aren't engineered for the Panhandle's wind loads. Galvanic corrosion eats unprotected fasteners within a mile of the Gulf. An undersized frame doesn't survive a 70 mph gust — and on this coast, those gusts come every season.
We've rebuilt enclosures that were installed without permits, without stamped engineering, and by contractors who weren't around when the damage came in. Your pool enclosure should outlast the next storm. When it's built right, it does.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Real answers, no run-around.
How much does a pool enclosure cost in Northwest Florida?
Pool enclosures in the Panhandle typically range from $15,000 to $45,000 depending on pool size, roof style, span configuration, and whether you opt for the halo design upgrade. We give you a straight quote during the free on-site estimate — no pressure, no showroom.
How long does a pool enclosure take to build?
Most pool enclosure projects take 4–8 weeks from design approval to completion, depending on permit timing, site conditions, and material lead times. Coastal sites with high-velocity wind requirements may add engineering review time.
Do pool enclosures meet Florida hurricane code?
Yes — when properly engineered. Every ABS pool enclosure is designed to meet or exceed current Florida Building Code wind-load requirements, with site-specific engineering for coastal high-velocity zones in Okaloosa, Walton, Santa Rosa, and Bay Counties.
What's the difference between a standard enclosure and a Infinity View?
A standard pool enclosure uses horizontal chair rails and vertical mid-span posts for structural support. Infinity View uses our halo frame design to eliminate the chair rail and minimize posts — resulting in spans up to 40 feet with an unobstructed sightline. Infinity View is the upgrade choice for Gulf-front, lakefront, and golf-course properties.
Do you pull permits and handle engineering?
Yes — we handle everything. Site measurement, 3D design, engineering, permitting, construction, and final walk-through. You don't coordinate anything between parties because there's only one party: our crew, start to finish.
