What does the Best Custom Screens logo represent?

Best Custom Screens, America’s Best Online Screen Door Company, has recently changed the design of their company logo.  The new logo has a striking silver and midnight blue shield with a cross right across the front of it.  It is the shield of Saint Michael the Archangel, the protector and guardian of the Church. His shield as Best Custom Screen’s logo makes people wonder what each aspect of it means.

Color explanation

Firstly, the color silver is associated with meanings of industrial, high-tech, and modern. It’s also a precious metal like gold. Silver often symbolizes riches and wealth but in Catholic Christian faith it resembles more closely to purity, holiness, and virtue, as well as respect and reverence. 

On the other hand, midnight blue carries a few more meanings. Blue symbolizes importance, royalty, confidence, power, and authority. Plus, dark blue is associated with intelligence, stability, unity, and conservatism. Both colors, silver and midnight blue, are deeply entwined and rooted in faith.

Faith

Even more so, the theme of faith is symbolized more deeply in the cross. It illustrates sacrifice, suffering, repentance, solidarity, and most of all love. The cross represents the love that Christ has for all of us because he gave his own life to save each and every one of us.  Jesus reminds us in scripture as he stated in John 15:13 “No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” With this in mind, one can see that the logo exemplifies the qualities that Best Custom Screens holds deep in their hearts.

Company Culture

Most people in this country might say, why is this company even talking about so much religion.  The leadership and the entire team takes these meanings very personal in their Christian lives.  Most importantly for the Best Custom Screens team, the shield stands strong as a symbol of the company’s culture and mission, “Our Motivation is to keep families healthy, by providing the best screening and blinds.  We believe that by Shielding your windows and doors, by protecting the home from disease carrying insects and harmful UV rays. You can enjoy a bug-free, cooler home, while creating a safe living space.”

Most noteworthy, the company states that they “are here to serve our customers, each other, the community, and the world. Our ultimate mission is to change the world one person at time!  We firmly believe that looking from the inside out is our best way to provide the highest level of service.”

Dedication to Saint Michael the Archangel

Best Custom Screens has dedicated the entire company in veneration of Saint Michael the Archangel. September 29, 2020 is the feast of the archangels including Saint Gabriel and Saint Rafael the Archangels. Most noteworthy the company is scheduled to  unveil a special dedication on that day. Stay tuned for updates on this event.

St. Michael the Archangel is the protector of the church and her children.  “Who is like God?” was the cry of the Archangel Michael when he struck down the rebel Lucifer in the conflict of the heavenly hosts. Saint Michael is the commander of the Army of God. Since the time of the apostles, he is the protector of the Church. It was him who, at the first moment of his existence, turned to the Almighty and submitted to him in perfect obedience.  It was he who first who first took up arms against the proud Lucifer.  His humility, obedience, and zeal for the honor of God raised him above all in heaven.

He has four main responsibilities, as we know from scripture and Christian tradition. Firstly, to combat and defeat Satan and the fallen angels. Secondly, is to escort the faithful departed to heaven at the hour of their death.  Thirdly, to be the champion of all Christians and the Church itself.  Lastly, is to call men from life on Earth to their heavenly judgement.  

Before the staff can go out to protect others, they need protection over themselves. Therefore they needed a guardian who would help defend them. The entire team decided that it made sense that the company be dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel  for the protection against the evils in the world. 

The team starts and ends their day in prayer. 

Saint Michael the Archangel Prayer

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.  May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.  Amen.
