If you are talking about a birdcage, you will need to find suitable stainless steel self tapping or sheet metal screws of the same size as the original. Then basically anyone handy with a screwdriver and ladder can replace all of the screws ONE AT A TIME. NOTE: every birdcage I have seen uses steel screws which react badly when used with aluminum, they rust. IMHO, do NOT use aluminum screws as these probably do NOT have sufficient strength. Also, if you get suggestions about rust preventatives these probably will not work, and you will have difficulty matching the existing finish on the aluminum.

Xylan coated hex washer head screws are what they recently used on our cage. They're designed to surpass over 1,000 hours of salt/fog spray testing.

yes the enclosure, aka birdcage (don't even know why these people call it that). Yours must be white, that's the only one that shows this symptom. As mentioned you can do it yourself 1 at a time. also a can of rustoleum to cover the screws helps. Should you ever replace it do bronze less maintenence.

Forgot the name of the company about 2 years ago Replace every nut and bolt painted the whole cage from White to a Dark Bronze color and replace the screen doors as well. You are more than welcome to have a look if you want. I am between 466 and 466A |

Be very careful removing the old rusty screws, they will snap off very easily.

I used Todd's screen repair * +1 (352) 315-9517 to replace the rusted screws in the enclosure over my pool ten years ago and they still look great.

I had my screen enclosure rubbed down with WD-40 to help preserve the metal and screws. Call Shane Christlieb at 352 209 3672 for an estimate. My enclosure is 12 yrs old & I thought I would have to replace bolts before talking to Shane.
