Glad to see you teaching the youth,I’m a welder by trade but I love wood working and it’s sad a lot of kids these days don’t take up the trades anymore.
I taught high school for my career, and I totally agree! My ex is so unhandy, my 37 year-old son doesn’t know how to do anything, and really, he doesn’t want to learn! Everything handy has been done by me.
Great video -- thanks. To hang the panels, the eye hooks are installed in the side of the deck to be hidden by the panels? What sort of hook is used to attach the panels to the eye hooks? Also, as some have noted New England winters are fairly unforgiving -- assume comparable approach can be used with cedar lattice?
Vinyl buckles when secured to tightly. Large pilot holes and roofing nails works. Should be able to jiggle it around a little bit. The larger the piece the greater the cup!
The only place I see vinyl buckling on my deck is the thin fascia vinyl over the deck box. The bottom was latticed in, as this video shows, and it has no signs of buckling. It looks like buckling depends on the vinyl thickness.
@@OscarHanzely Incorrect guess. The brutal blazing summer sun is the very reason I have to use vinyl, as paint has repeatedly been scorched off by the end of second summer after painted. On deck, on window and door trim. Thomas is correct, vinyl does buckle, how much and why includes how thick it is. My 1/4 inch and 1 inch thick doesn't.
Thanks. I've been trying to think of a way to remove because I store things under my 4ft high porches. Thought of toggle type hinge thingies lol and hooks... never thought about the hinges... yay
Living in FL with screen porch. Do you know how/what kind of hooks I can put into the metal screen frame so I could easily hang a vinyl lattice from time to time for privacy?
Great video, very helpful and informative. I live in South Florida and want to make a similar rigid framed pvc lattice frame that can be removed, to install above my PVC arbors. This would work however the composite wood frames are a worry regarding waterproofing. See I have orchids hanging from these arbors that get watered twice a day and the water would definitely cover the lattice and frames. Is this framing material available at Home Depot? Is there some other white PVC, vinyl or other synthetic manmade material available that you know of that I could use to frame the panels? Thank you again!
The color is in the material so it's not like paint that's how it's made so it should be very long lasting I've never had issues with it when it's filthy you just power wash it
Very informative, thank you. I'm considering putting lattice at the front of my house and it sits on a slope or slight incline. Should I put a board across the bottom for the frame where the lattice meets the ground?
Absolutely. Build box framed panel with lower rail angled to contour ground slope. Measure height from top left to ground then top right to ground and make that you frame demention.
@@Chrdiy I had a similar question! If one end of my deck was 36 inches from the ground and the other was 32 inches from the ground. Would get one horizontal 2x6 at 36" high and the second one 32" high right? The distance between the ends is about 80 ft. The bottom of the deck is sloped but the top isn't. Would I do 79' across the top and measure the bottom at the slope? Would I cut any angles into the wood at the bottom of the frame? Or would I leave them flat on the ends like yours?? Thanks for your help! You are making things possible for two single mothers ages 25 and 26!!
@@lynnrandolph6175 not sure regarding your situation but if you want to Contour to the ground to options they can both 36 and since they're right free you can trench the one part of the board into the dirt and then push your dirt back where should and that it still give you a nice even effect. Or you could have just your lower board to accommodate 32 on one end and 36 on the other then attach the lattice
Thank you I appreciate the feedback. Sorry no I don't have a a video for that as every deck or porch has a variables. Best advice I can give you is to consider the attachment method prior to building the panel section. Then build your paddle section catering to the method of attachment. If that makes any sense to you.
Any tips on how to fasten it to a raised house? I live in New Orleans and have a raised house on cinder block piers that rest on concrete wall foundation. We have termite issues here, so I can't have any ground to wood contact, but want to put lattice up between the piers to keep my dog out from under the house. Should I just hold them in place with brackets drilled straight into the cinder blocks on either end? I have to leave a gap between the bottom of the lattice frame and the ground, as well as the top of the frame and the wood of the house.
Sure I would build a subframe of 2 x 4 behind the finished closure. The basically a 2 by 4 pressure treated frame attached to the piers across your top head and at your lower portion. Then depending on the span of each section provide infill studs to support attachment of your fabricated panels. Of course your panels will have to be custom made to fit particular areas. But you'll fasten your rot free lattice frames direct me to the pressure-treated studs
What kind of tool can I use to cut vinyl lattice? What kind of tool was that in the video? I have a table saw on hand and was wondering if you know of any type of blades that will cut through vinyl as nicely as yours did....
Hi Chris thanks for your question. In the video we're using the standard scroll saw word jigsaw with a rough cut Edge blade cutting very fast little bit more time consuming than a table saw here's the best if I can give you. We're Home Remodeling Company so we're constantly cutting siding and we use a table saw for that which is also vinyl but it is thinner than lattice. The easiest practice if you want to use a table saw is one of two choices. First you can use your existing blade if you reverse it basically taking it off turning it around and reconnecting it to the drive whereas when you turn the table saw on the blade spins properly but it's backwards, this you can cut vinyl siding and lattice with Ease. the only catch with this is that it must be a carbide tip blade in order to work. Secondly purchase a new blade which is a fine-tooth blade for cutting flies or trim. this is installed to the table saw as a normal routine blade change. the ideal here is that the fine-tooth closely-knit saw blade doesn't grab regret the somewhat thicker lattice. the con to this. you may experience gumming on the blade and therefore you're probably not going to use it again for wood. The jigsaw takes a little longer but I just throw The Blade away when I'm done. usually there's no gumming on the jigsaw blade. Hope I'm able to help you here good luck and please feel free to subscribe to his channel we're always looking for good feedback
Ok so I made my panel out of pressure treated fence boards and cedar louvered shutters instead of lattice. But now I'm trying to figure out how to install it on the brick columns with hinges
You'll need to attach left and right vertical pressure treated 2x4 plate to the columns. Inlaid to a proper depth to accommodate the panel thinkness once mountrf
Curious.. maybe I missed it but what type of material is the framing made of? Is it just pressure treated that’s painted? I have to do mine which is under a concrete deck. Going to lay a flat 2x4, tapconned just trying to get the framing idea right. Your design is very good. Just curious of the material used. Thanks.

single 4" board 8ft long of that PVC trim material costs $18. Thats quite expensive way of building a lattice. Granted it won't rot, but they sell cheaper plastic channels that cost $7 for same length.
Vincent Dramis thanks for your reply...there are so many different kind of boards and I am not handyman so don’t know which one to buy. would you mind me to send a link from homedepot or Lowe’s where I can buy it from
wrong! If you're going to post videos online on how to install products at least follow the manufacturers recommendations. This will fail within the first year. The product is intended to be a floating system. No staples.
I built my frames from 5/4x4 PT and PT lattice. I used pockets screws with a Kreg jig to assemble the frame and then used a stapler with 1" staples for the lattice.
