I install these for a living… you can cut these down to size for each of your openings with a miter saw. I’d be happy to walk you through it. cheers!

I'm happy with the installation now. But I am curious about the cut end. Do you melt it or sew it back?

Have owned that brand for 5 years here in Texas. Make sure you order the end caps on the rods. Over time they will break. When the wind picks up, it becomes a sail, be aware of that.

@ShaneZettelmier 2 года назад

These are pretty cool. My neighbor had something kind of like that that was split, it had a magnetic door where that you can push open that covered his garage doors. I was thinking about just using something like that for a screened in porch that I could remove pretty easily if it got too windy and when I didn’t want it to be covered. It just use Velcro though and I’m not sure that would be strong enough long-term.

@backyardproblemsolver Год назад

Looks great! One thought I had if you want the bungee cords to pull straight down is you could mount the holders on a bracket with a hinge, so the bracket would lay down flat against the post when not in use.

@TKCL Год назад

That's exactly what I have been thinking about, the hinge idea.

@backyardproblemsolver Год назад

@@TKCL I just had another idea, instead of a hinge you could also make the bracket removable. So maybe something like a hole in the post it would slide into. Then you could just pull it out when not in use, plus then you could put holes at different heights so you wouldn’t need extra holders.

@TKCL Год назад

I definitely don't want to drill holes in a support post. Screws is one thing, holes is another.

@davidbrieske Год назад

Nice job! On your outside, build a bracket like the one holding the shade at the top, so it looks symmetrical top and bottom. Then attach those bungee holder.

@TKCL Год назад

Problem with that is the mower coming by and people catching on it. I was thinking a fold against the post hinged bracket.

@trevinated Год назад

@@TKCL Maybe some sort of recessed D Ring. Just flip it out to hook the bungee when needed.

@genghischuan4886 2 года назад

get black iron pipe drill into post and run pipe half way in so the pipe can be taken in and out and extend past pole to the bracket length you need. when you decide to do something else years from now just frill in drill hole with dowel and send flat

@dougdavis4439 2 года назад

Nice addition to your porch area Andrew! That sun can be brutal, you've reclaimed your porch! Have you thought about installing a hinge on the outer post that could fold down when not needed but when opened would allow the shade to be pulled straight down? Don't know if your OCD is kicking in but thought it might be an idea? Folds flat when not used bit up and out, with the plastic bracket connected on the end when you do. Anyway, lol. Enjoyed it!

I am so glad to see these open roof structures l After seeing an earlier video of your TORNADO WIND DAMAGE, I became concerned ! Also in an earlier video, when you screwed the cellular antenna to the top of the roof, I saw the house roof move l If you would install a set of cross hatch cable or threaded rods, between several roof supports , it would ADD to the side wise stability of the roof supports ! As a thought, you have MORE open wind sail structure than Columbus had as sails on his ship crossing the ocean !

@TKCL Год назад

That was the man lift basket moving, not the house. We've already been in some nasty thunderstorms and I have not seen or heard anything budge an inch on the house.

@ADOENDRA 2 года назад

@joshuaharris4484 2 года назад

Hey Andrew, it looks like if you wanted you could have cut them down, then maybe roll the screen over or Mrs Tiffany could put a hem where you cut the screen. I know it's too late and it looks good, but just an idea!!!

@TKCL 2 года назад

Yeah I wasn't sure we could sew those back together.

@bobniles1928 2 года назад

Those look like Koolroo shades. Mine were also too wide. I removed an end cap, shortened the rod and rehemmed the fabric to decrease the width.

@ShaneZettelmier 2 года назад

You could mount those on the backside of your gutters are on the facia board and not have to worry about those mounts at all, it might stick over a little behind the house but if you just put it on the roof you wouldn’t really have to worry about the width of the polls. It looks like it might be long enough heat up to you work around or move one of the gutters over a few inches but it’s another option.

@TKCL 2 года назад

I'd be worried about the sun destroying them and the rain causing mildew if they were mounted there.

@ShaneZettelmier 2 года назад

@@TKCL good point. It would be interesting to see if you could cut them down a little to make them fit the way you want. But I think it looks pretty good the way you have it set up, I would probably try to come up with a way to clamp the bottom down better, just because you have so much wind there but it might be better just to let it go. You might even find a way to tie the two of them together just to keep it from being able to swing over towards the window so easily if it’s blown really hard. I definitely think the idea about putting the chair footer on there to keep it from messing up the paint on the side of the house is a good idea, or at least I felt pad on that end.

@TKCL 2 года назад

They are a weird plastic material, cutting them down would require melting and or sewing like we've never done. I decided it wasn't a good idea.

@jamesbromstead4949 2 года назад

Good work Andrew. If I had done it (opinions, much like bellybuttons), I would have left the blind closer to the house the way is was, but mounted the one further from your house on the outside of the posts. Evened the end of the blind with the furthest post and overlapped the center post (may need to tee off the center post in the other direction similar to the way you did the blind closer to the you house. Thanks as always for your videos. Love to see how you're making this a beautiful and comfortable home.

@TKCL 2 года назад

I kicked that idea around as well, when all I could find was 8ft bli d's I was going to overlap 3.

@jerrydemas2020 2 года назад

Andy, How about putting extruded aluminum C channel the full length vertically on the house and posts. Fabricate metal arms that would attach to the ends of the roller shades and the other den of the arms would ride in the C channel . Always secure no matter what lenght the shades are. Jerry in Pa.

@TKCL 2 года назад

That c channel would be out in thin air past both of the posts, don't think that would look good. That would work awesome if the shades lined up with the posts.

Hey Andrew, I hung one of those on my back porch some time back. To hold it down I skipped the bungee things and grabbed some clips, parachute cord and and hold down I anchored in the concrete. This gives me the ability to hold down the shade and any level all the way to close to rolled up. Trust me, it not strapped down those things are sails in the wind.

@ShaneZettelmier 2 года назад

Just secured at the bottom I would consider making a bracket that screws to the post it just holds that pole down tight. Just a little piece of metal that you could easily tighten down with a wingnut it would hold the polls in place without the bungees and be much stronger. When I’m watching the video I’m wondering if that thing blew up and swung in towards the house if it would reach the window. 🤔

@TKCL 2 года назад

I'm thinking about a fold up hinge to mount to the post.

@ShaneZettelmier 2 года назад

@@TKCL that would be cool. I also bought some magnets off of eBay. They’re made for screwing under a table or a cabinet to hold a gun but they’re very strong magnets. Then you could just put a metal park or some thing in the post and drill so you can counter sink it so it’s flush but those magnets were very very strong and they have bigger ones that are more of a rectangle shape as well. That might be a thought but I’m sure you’ll come up with something pretty awesome

@tanner3992 2 года назад

in the off chance this does not work out their is a screen system from Larson manufacturing it is called the Grandvue E800 they run around $470 at menders and lows for the base length of 8x8 and 9x8 but from what I can tell from when I worked at Larson most items can be custom ordered for different size. the one thing that makes these better is they run in a track so there would be no need for the bungie cords on the ends and there is a motorized version as well E950 but that has a screen length down to 10ft
