The 7/8 x 3 (2.2x7.6cm) shade slats are designed to be installed
with11” (27.9cm) spacing between each slat.
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” (17.1cm)
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.
Install first shade slat 11“ (27.9cm) away from the top of the vinyl
columns.
Install the rest of the shade slats at 11”
(27.9cm)
spacing.
Install one 2 1/2” (64mm) 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.
