Clermont sits in south Lake County, about a half hour west of Orlando along State Road 50 and the Florida Turnpike. It is one of the county’s largest and fastest-growing cities, known for its rare rolling hills, the Clermont Chain of Lakes, Lake Minneola, and the landmark Citrus Tower. New subdivisions like Kings Ridge, Highland Ranch, and Lost Lake sit alongside established lakefront neighborhoods, and homeowners here invest in their backyards to take advantage of the views the hills provide.
Clermont gets the full Central Florida climate: humid summers with highs in the 90s, near-daily afternoon storms, pollen-heavy springs, and a long insect season fed by the surrounding lakes. Open pools collect leaves, pollen, and lovebugs, and the water heats up fast under direct sun. An aluminum pool cage from CRA keeps a Clermont pool clean and usable year-round while preserving the elevated views that make the area’s hillside lots so desirable.
Clermont’s growth has brought a wide range of homes, from lakefront properties on the Clermont Chain to golf-course communities and hillside new builds, and nearly all of them are candidates for an enclosure. Retirees, young families, and remote workers alike want a backyard they can use on their own schedule rather than around the weather and the insects. A screen enclosure is the upgrade that makes that possible, and it pays off in both daily comfort and long-term resale.
- Keeps leaves, pollen, and lovebugs out of the pool.
- Cuts pool cleaning time and chlorine use.
- Blocks mosquitoes and no-see-ums driven by the chain of lakes.
- Provides a code-compliant pool safety barrier.
- Preserves hillside and lake views with slim framing.
- Adds resale value in a fast-moving south Lake market.
The Best Pool Cages in Clermont by Commercial Residential Aluminum
Commercial Residential Aluminum has engineered and installed pool enclosures across Florida for more than 25 years. Our patented ChannelLock SMB framing and ScenicView screen systems are designed and tested for Florida wind loads, which matters in a region that sees severe weather every hurricane season. On Clermont’s elevated lots, our slimmer frames and wider ScenicView panels keep the sightlines to the lakes and rolling terrain open rather than boxing them in.
We design every enclosure for the specific property rather than dropping a stock template onto a patio, and our in-house engineering, fabrication, permitting, and installation teams handle the entire project. That single point of accountability, from the first sketch through the final Lake County inspection, is what keeps a CRA enclosure looking right and performing for the long term.

FAQs
Q1: Will a pool cage block the hillside views Clermont is known for?
No. Our ScenicView enclosures use wider panels and slimmer frames specifically to keep sightlines open, so you keep the lake and hill views while still keeping debris and insects out.
Q2: How long does a pool screen enclosure take to install in Clermont?
Most residential installations run about two to four weeks from permit approval to final inspection, depending on the size of the structure and Lake County permitting timelines. CRA handles the design, engineering, and permitting for you.
Q3: Do you build enclosures for new construction in south Lake County?
Yes. We work with new builds in communities across Clermont and Minneola as well as replacing aging enclosures on established homes, designing each cage for the specific lot and roofline.
