Clear
and opal lexan covers are bright in the winter. You will be able
to enjoy the oudoors no matter what the Northwest weather sends
your way. Our covers feature large built in gutters designed to
handle water and debris, they have the best drainage system available.
The main frame and posts are made of coated aluminum for a durable
rust free product. The integrated fluted pattern provides rich detailing.
With choices of different see through lexan tops, you can have a
cover that lets in light, yet keeps out the rain for a fraction
of the cost of a sunroom. The frame is available in White or Bronze.
The
clear covers let in the most light. 83% light transmission. We integrated
an aluminum "ultra rail" between the posts for a no maintenance
railing system that matches this cover very well. The corners of
the pictured cover were cut at a 45 degree angle to match the angled
vinyl deck. The beam has a ridge design that makes hanging plants
a breeze. Many people install track lighting on the beam to illuminate
their covered areas for night time entertaining. And some people
mount speakers there to provide surround sound. Often these covers
are used to cover hot tub areas, making them usable year around.
Lexan
thermoclear has 250 times the impact resistance of glass. It easily
stands up to rocks and baseballs making it the ideal material for
the active family. Lexan is warranted 10 years but we have covers
older than that in beautiful condition.

The
clear lexan lets in 83% light transmission which is very bright.
The Bronze color lets in 42% light transmission as does the opal
(white) color featured on the bottom. The nice thing about lexan
is how tough it is. It is a poly carbonate that is commonly used
for boat and aircraft windows, riot shields, bullet proof glass
applications, and heavy duty industrial applications..
One
of the biggest challenges for patio and deck covers is finding a
cover design that features a rain gutter system capable of handling
the heavy rains of the Northwest. Our design features a large gutter
system that handles not only the rains, but also has a wide facia
gutter system that can be easily cleaned. The downspouts are the
same as those used on most homes. The deep dish aluminum pan shown
on the left side is extremely rugged. The aluminum pan design can
be used in conjunction with the flat lexan panels shown above or
with domed acrylic sky lights. The domed sky lights work well with
the aluminum pans, especially in areas with lots of overhanging
trees because the leaves will wash down off the domes. The facia
system is also available in a bronze color for those wanting a more
"woodsy" look..
You
have a variety of post options as well. The post on the far right
in the picture is the one we use the most. It is about 4 inches
square with a lovely fluted pattern on it. The posts from left to
right are scroll "Ornamental" post, 3 inch square, and
our favorite the fluted magnum corner post. We offer these posts
in two colors: white or bronze. If you are building a large carport
or RV cover, we also can bring in a very large 5 inch square post
(not shown) for you.
One
other very nice feature of these covers is the ability to run them
nearly flat! On many homes there isn't a lot of overhead clearance
and a fiberglass or wood cover simply would not leave adequate headroom.
These covers are the perfect solution!
