Next, it is time to staple your pre-stained lattice to the cross members. Install your cross members and nail them with strong-tie nails to the brackets. Install the diagonal cross braces and lag screws. Lift and install your beams, re-check that your posts are level. Mark out the top of your beams either 2’ or 16” on center, depending on loads and lumber size. Make sure the bad side of your beam is facing the sky. Square up the post holes and install the posts, use a level and braces to keep them straight. Visit the lumber yard and get help picking lumber that will meet your local area codes for snow loads and wind shear. The project was stabilized by attaching the 2×8 with brackets and strong-tie nails, extensive stapling of the lattice and screwing the Tuff-Tex down every other corrugated wave along the 2×2. The project’s opening is nearly 13’ high and required extensive bracing. This would have helped eliminate some of the swaying that occurred when I was crawling across the 2x2s installing the Tuff-Tex. The 4×6 posts were installed on peer pads with pre-installed brackets, but in hindsight, the posts should have been buried at least 3’. Next, you need to make sure you reinforce and brace it correctly. If you do not take the time to do this you will face extensive headaches when you install the lattice and roofing. When you start putting this project together, make sure that you square up your posts by measuring horizontally and diagonally. Square Up The Posts By Measuring Horizontally & Diagonally The Sikkens teak cedar stain turned the #2 fir beautiful, but the one time that the can was shaken and not stirred, the wood was a lot lighter because the pigment was at the bottom of the gallon can. After comparing the cost and aesthetics of cedar vs fir, cost overruled looks for us and at a third less was the more viable choice.
