How to Install the Teton Patio Cover – Part 1

default How to Install the Teton Patio Cover   Part 1

Enjoy your patio all summer long by adding an Americana Teton Patio Cover. Patio covers from American are easy to install, especially with the help of this instructional video from Lowe’s. Before you begin, measure the area to be covered. Then cut your post to measurement. Remember to allow for a slope. Drill holes on the awning rail. Check the instruction manual for dimensions. Slide the mounting channel into the awning rail. Step 1 — Mounting the Awning Rail Attach the awning rail to the structure. See the manual for the type of screws needed. Apply silicone to the back side of the entire rail. Step 2 — Attaching the Two Roof Panels Attach the panel on each side to the awning rail. Check the manual for screw type. Don’t tighten the screws yet. Slide in the Styrofoam flashing plug to prevent water leaks. Step 3 — Attaching the Header Beam to the Posts Attach the post brackets to the beam. Check the manual for spacing recommendations. Slide the posts in place and attach them to the bracket on both sides using screws. Do the same for the other side. Step 4 — Attaching the Beam and Posts to the Roof Panel Stand the beam and posts upright with the roof panels sitting lightly on them. You can do this one at a time if it is easier for you. Set your measurements for the placement of the beam. Check the manual for recommendations. Attach the roof panel to the beam. Make sure the posts are level. Mark the position. Place the bracket in position and mark the holes for drilling

You will need to install a sub-panel in your shed. Sub-panels are electrical panels, of a smaller size than the main service, that are used to extend a feed for multiple branch circuits to another area or building a great distance away from the main panel. A garage, out building, or room addition might be a place to put a sub-panel. The idea is to run a single set of feeder wires from the main panel, via a two-pole breaker, and extend them out to a sub-panel, which will feed multiple branch circuits in that area of your house, garage, or out building. From there, the sub panel connects to outlets, lighting and other loads via individual circuit breakers, just like your main panel in your home supplies.

How to Install a Paver Patio

Lowe’s home improvement expert, Mike Kraft, demonstrates how to finish your patio by installing paving stones. Make sure you know the pattern you would like to use before starting. Even though the foundation should be level, double check after you lay down your bricks. For those odd areas that the paver won’t fit, cut and make adjustments. You can use chisels, brick hammers and grinders to make clean cuts and edges. Once all the pavers have been set, place sand over the blocks and dampen with a garden hose. Finally, you can seal the pavers and start planting around the patio edge. To learn about more outdoor projects, visit www.Lowes.com

Last year, I held an open house for a seller of mine. A prospective home buyer was visiting and made a comment that the back patio looked terrible. It had round popcorn patio blocks with stones in between and was overgrown with weeds. She thought a brick patio would be much nicer. I told her that if she purchased the home, and the bricks, I would lay them. She bought the property and completely remodeled it into a beautiful villa. She called me recently to take me up on my promise. I’ve now laid the bricks for her. Of course I thought it would be fun to videotape the job. The camcorder malfunctioned near the end – but it got completed and turned out well.
