What happens here

After a section of under-deck panels has been installed, a black perimeter edge channel or finishing trim is affixed along the exposed edges. This trim typically caps the panel edges where they meet a beam or the outer frame of the deck, providing a clean, finished appearance. The installer pushes the channel firmly into place to engage with the panel edges, further securing them and helping to direct any water into the integrated drainage system.

Goal: Finish and secure the edges of the installed panels

Tools and materials

  • Perimeter Edge Channel/Trim — Finishing the edges of the panels and securing them
