Lattice

Open Lattice

A lattice patio cover is a type of outdoor shade structure that uses rafters beams and slats known as “lattice tubes” to provide partial sun coverage allowing filtered sunlight to pass through while still offering a shaded area, often considered a stylish addition to a backyard due to its open design and ability to support climbing plants;essentially, it's a roof-like structure with gaps between the slats, providing shade without completely blocking out the sun.

Key points about lattice patio covers:

Partial shade:Unlike a solid patio cover, a lattice design only blocks a portion of sunlight, allowing for a cooler area while still letting in some natural light.

Airflow:The open lattice pattern allows for good air circulation.

Aesthetic appeal:The crisscross design adds a visually pleasing element to the outdoor space.

Climbing plant support:The lattice structure can be used as a support for climbing vines.

Material options:Lattice patio covers can be made from wood, or other materials however, aluminum is far more popular and in much higher demand.
