Installation Guide

Install first shade slat 11“ away from the top of the vinyl columns.

Install the rest of the shade slats at 11” spacing.

Install one 2 1/2” screw at each intersection of rafter and shade

slat.

Suggestions for Additional Shade as Necessary

• White resin lattice in variety of shapes and sizes are available at

your local lumberyard. Cut to size and fasten directly to the top

of shade slats using stainless steel screws.

•

In areas of extreme snow or wind load, do not use tight diamond

privacy lattice.

Shade Slats Installation

The 7/8 x 3 shade slats are designed to be installed with

11” spacing between each slat. This spacing must be followed if

you are planning to install the optional Canvas Weave Kit.

Note: Shade slats can re repositioned as needed to suit your

application as there are no pre-drilled holes. Dry fit the shade

slats first to ensure none of the shade slats interfere with the

rafter joiners.

Shade slats are designed to extend approximately 6 3/4” past

the last rafter. Measurement includes the decorative end caps.

Your goal is to ensure that all the shade slats overhang equally

to the eye.
