PLASTIC LATTICE INSTALL
The install is the part of the process I'm struggling with currently, and I would love to hear more from you guys as to what you like/dont like, other products that may be similar but easier to install, alternate methods of installation, etc. My goal would be to still keep this sheet, maybe thicken it up a bit so its not so flimsy, add some fresh new designs to the mix, and come up with an install method that makes your lives easier, whether installing one panel or a dozen. At least lattice designs and colors helps distract from whats hiding underneath? The DeckAll also lets you see exactly what's under the deck, be it 4x4's or pool toys, it just looks tacky and unfinished in my opinion. There's something about lattice and other building materials, maybe just the thickness/depth of a tactile sheeting, design, "heft", that just scream that its much more high quality than the DeckAll screening. Basically just screening in under your deck. Is there a particular install process that would make your life a million times easier?ĭo you just flat out prefer the look of Azek/leftover deck boards more than you do diamond (or square) lattice?Īny comments on the matter would be much appreciated!Ĭlick to expand.I have seen that stuff before, not really a fan of it at all. What would make this material more desirable to you, and make you more open to using it on future jobs?
Those are just a few quick pro's and con's from what I've gathered in some other threads. Only 2 real designs to choose from, diamond and square. "Cheap", lacks the dimension and feel of real wood. Material expands and contracts, leading to either warping or breaking. Installation (pre-drilling, terrible looking trim pieces that don't actually hide fasteners, etc.) "Lifetime" material, plastic holds up relatively well to environment.

Tuck paint swatches and the like into the openings. Tack a piece of lattice on top with brad nails.

Screw eye hooks into ceiling joists and into the wood frame. Fashion a Pot Rack Photo by Ryan McVay/Photodisc/Gettyįrame a piece of sturdy lattice with 2x4s.

Use zip ties as loops for hanging rakes, shovels, and other garden gear. Screw a rectangular piece of lattice onto two 2x4s and attach to the back of a shed door. Set lattice on top of base molding and attach to the walls with nails and panel adhesive. Use as Wainscoting Photo by Laura MossĬut panels where the lattice intersects to a typical wainscot height (about 36 inches). Place two lengths of 11 in each corner to act as braces behind the lattice, and fasten.

Use lattice as a stencil for spraying on allover squares or diamonds. Paint a Pattern Illustration by Anastasiia-Ku/iStock Frame ends with lattice cap, or C-rail (a channeled edging for lattice).

Those crisscrossed panels can do more than skirt a porch or hold up vines.
