How to Design your Patio Cover
Customer Worksheets
Learn how to design your patio cover by using our helpful customer worksheets and videos below.
Alumawood Patio Covers by Patio Kits Direct are simple to design and install. To offer our customer’s more resources to help during the design phase, we have created a Customer Worksheet below. This customer worksheet provides a guide on different Patio Cover components and how to measure and design.
Some customers find it useful to print the worksheet out and use the guide and graph paper to make an aerial sketch of their Alumawood Patio Cover. On our “Custom Quote” form, you can upload the worksheet and any drawing you have done to the quote request – this will send to our sales representatives, to ensure you receive an accurate quote.
Our goal is to help you design and order the perfect Patio Cover for your home. The more information that you have, the easier the process will be from start to finish!
Included below are printable PDFs on:
- How to Design your Cover – Customer Worksheet
- Example Customer Worksheet
- Guide to filling out a Custom Quote Request
These worksheets are optional, and simply provided as a resource to use during the process. If you would prefer to relay the information directly to our sales and design team, that works too! We work hard every day to make sure our customer’s designs are just right for them!
