Small Deck Gets MASSIVE Makeover! - Full Build Time Lapse
What happens here
Fabricate and install custom privacy walls along the deck perimeter. These walls are constructed from composite decking material. The process involves creating a sub-frame, then routing grooves into composite boards to allow for a horizontal slatted design. Shorter boards are integrated into the design to provide mounting points for small shelves and embedded puck lights. Once fabricated, these sections are mounted securely to the deck and pergola posts, offering privacy and decorative elements.
Goal: Create decorative privacy screens with integrated shelves and lighting
