INSTALLING THE 2ND PANEL, 2ND COURSE AND ADDITIONAL PANELS 2ND COURSE
10’, 12’, 16’, 18’, 24’, AND 30’ WIDE CARPORTS:
See the chart on the bottom of page 17 for panel sizes required for the on center frame spacing of your carport.
The additional panel/panels in the second course must be positioned with the under lap edge to the upper side of the
panel. The upper under lap edge of the panel will lap under the panel above and the end of the panel will lap under the
panel you just installed. Run a bead of butyl caulk on the end to be lapped under the previous panel 1” from the end and
remove the protective paper. Now, lift the panels above and the previous panel in the course you are installing and slide
the upper edge of the panel under the panel above and the end 2” under the previous panel. Press the panels together
well at the caulked end to get a good seal. For longer carports, continue installing panels in the same manner to the end
of the carport. Both ends of the carport should have the same overhang.
Additional Courses of Sheet metal: Start all additional courses of metal on the carport at the same end as you started
the second course (the high end of the carport). Install them in the same manner. Place under lap edges under overlap
edges.
14’, 20’ AND 26’ WIDE CARPORTS:
See the chart on the bottom of page 17 for panel sizes required for the on center frame spacing of your carport.
The additional panel/panels in the second course must be positioned like the first panel in the second course with the
Under lap edge over the peak of the carport and onto the second rib of the first course (NOTE: Only overlap by 2 ribs
over the peak). Remove the protective paper on the butyl caulk and place the end of the second panel 2” over the end of
the previous panel. With the ribs lined up and the panel pressed down to the frame, install the screws as shown below.
Install the screws first on the side of the roof that you installed the first course of panels. For longer carports, continue
installing panels in the same manner to the end of the carport. Both ends of the carport should have the same overhang.
