STEP 5: PREPARE POST 
Components Needed 
  Front fascia (D) 
  Bottom post bracket 
  Square post (H) 
Tools Recommended 
A minimum of ½” per foot slope recommended for proper water drainage 
FIRST: Slide on & fasten the square post to 
the top post connector previously installed to 
fascia. 
Drill two 3/8” diameter holes through both 
post and post connector. Use two 3/8” x 3-
1/2” bolt & nuts to fasten. 
SECOND: Front fascia profile shown must be 
“level” across width of patio cover. 
Roof Panel must not touch front fascia wall to 
allow for water to flow into front fascia drains. 
Insert foam fascia dams at end & seal 
generously. 
Secure roof panel to front fascia rail with 
screws from above center of panel “valley”. 
THIRD: Raise the assembly into position and 
temporarily stabilize the front fascia & post in 
upright position by tying each end post to 
each ladder with a rope or cord. DO NOT 
attach post to patio surface until proceeding 
to next STEPS and ensuring first roof panel 
insert is “squared” to front fascia and post 
assembly. 
NOTE: Uneven patio surface will require varying lengths of each post across uneven surface.
