Multiply those numbers and then double the result for the square footage of your roof. Use the rounded molding strips on the vertical rafters and the corrugated ones on the horizontal cross braces. Run a tape measure. Adjust door construction to desired size.

Allow for a minimum of 18. This will prevent leaks that lead to rusting. Install the roofing screws vertically along each rib in the panel. Use the corrugated molding strips on the horizontal cross braces and the rounded ones on the vertical rafters.

Measure the ridge of the roof to determine how many panels will be needed for installation. Apply front and back panels similarly to side walls.
