If you get the Daily Sun, look in the classified section you will find several screen and birdcage companies. We just had all of the roof area panels replaced (33 panels) 6 were damaged by Ian. We had 3 estimates, all with in $100 of each other, but A+ Screens provided the license and insurance information immediately. They were on time and did nice work. I believe they would also be able to move your screen door. In any case get at least 3 estimates, confirm license and insurance.

Now starting to see a lot of rusting screws and a whitening of the bottom rails (not mold...more like calcium deposit).

I am not sure painting is a practical option. I am curious what others have done with their aging bird cage frame.

Sounds like you have a pool. The white corrosion is the chlorine corroding the aluminum after a failure of the powder coating.

A little off-topic but I'm actually looking to do a bird cage. Anybody recommend a contractor?
