Screen Resourses

[Phatturk]

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone has a good place to buy screens for making enclosures. I have seen lots of pics of cages that are made of a screen just like the ones I have in my windows at home with aluminum framing, but when I went to the hardware store they only had a limited selection and no unusual shapes or sizes (Rectangles 10" x32") I saw a bunch of places that I can buy screening to make myself, Is that difficult to do or is that the way to go? Any help would be much appreciated.

Home Depot or Lowes has screening that you can buy in rolls and staple to the outside of your wood frame. You can then install trim over that so that the outside looks presentable. Do not use fiberglass screen, use aluminum screen.

Also, Pointer Hill Pets will cut and ship custom sized PVC mesh (such as 1X1.5 inch) mesh at a reasonable price.
