Choosing the Right Size for Your Space

The best patio cover size requires careful assessment of your outdoor space and how you plan to use it.

1

Assess Your Space

Do you have a deck or concrete pad you want to cover? If so, you’ll want to cover these areas with additional overhang for maximum weather protection.

2

Consider Your Activities

Whether it’s hosting large gatherings, cooking outdoors, or simply relaxing — your intended use determines the space you need.

3

Measure the Area

Measure where you plan to install the cover, keeping in mind any architectural features that could influence placement.

4

Plan for Furniture

Account for your outdoor furniture, BBQ, planters, and walking paths. Leave room for comfortable movement.
