STEEL
FRAMED PATIO COVERS
|
Steel covers are made from
commercial grade galvanized steel that is roll formed with 3/4" high
ribs 6" on center. the steel roofing is attached to 14 or
16 gauge galvanized steel framing that is 4' on center.
The cover
is supported on steel post set in concrete or mounted to the top
of a patio slab on brackets. The post are spaced evenly at 8',
10' 12, or 14' on center.
Patio roof styles are semi-flat with
a slope of 1" in 12" of projection (distance out from
the house) Gutters are not included on steel covers, a gutter company
can add gutters to match the gutters that are on the home.
See
the How to
measure for a cover section for information on post and set
back placement. Because steel covers have a frame the post can
be set back along the sides or at center beams, and you can attach
things to the frame such as fans, lights, bug-zappers, and ceilings. |

A note to customers
installing a patio cover in a corner situation:
If the cover is mounted on the eave, the cover will leak during
heavy rains and this type of installation does not meet code. To
avoid this, mount the cover on the wall below the eave and install seperate
gutters on the home's eaves. This will meet code and prevent leaks.
