Double Rafter Lattice Patio Cover

Here is a spacious 21′ x  38′ double rafter lattice patio cover we recently installed in Pahrump. Covering 538 sq ft, it features a driftwood-colored lattice top with 2″ spacing, perfect for balancing sunlight and shade. This cover is securely attached to the fascia, and we took care of removing the existing gutter, tearing down the old cover, and hauling everything away. We reinforced the structure by plating over existing straps and bolting steel plates to the concrete. The design includes installing two rafters spaced 6″ apart every 4 feet, and the entire structure stands approximately 8′ tall. The price covers all labor, materials, and necessary permits, ensuring a hassle-free upgrade to your outdoor space.

Double rafter tails are commonly installed on patio covers for both structural reinforcement and aesthetic enhancement. Structurally, they offer increased support and stability, particularly beneficial when accommodating heavy materials or spanning large areas.

Aesthetically, the double rafter tails elevate the visual allure of the patio cover, providing a polished appearance that harmonizes with the architectural essence of the dwelling. Additionally, they facilitate the creation of intricate designs, contributing to the overall charisma and sophistication of the outdoor environment.

Lattice tube spacing affects the shade factor, with different spacing options providing varying degrees of coverage and light penetration. For instance, a 2″ x 2″ lattice tube with 2″ spacing offers about 50% coverage, striking a balance between light and shade, while a 2″ x 3″ lattice tube with 2″ spacing delivers 60% coverage, which may result in more shade and potentially excessive interior darkness if not carefully considered.

Proper lattice tube spacing is essential for crafting an outdoor patio cover design that meets individual preferences for light and shade throughout the day, considering the sun’s changing positions over the year
