This project was exciting because the customer, Lei, brought great ideas in design and architecture, even though he is a software engineer. His imported carport from Italy had a slick and modern design that set the tone.

The challenge was the fascia capping installation, which needed to align with a steel I-beam secured with glass railing nuts and bolts. The fascia capping had to be rigid, smooth, and ripple-free, especially once the glass railing was installed.

To solve this, I suggested a specialized approach. We bent the thickest pre-painted steel sheets and backed them with 1/4-inch MDF panels for added rigidity. Our trusted supplier carefully bent the metal sheets, ensuring no scratches during handling. Then, we cut the MDF panels to size and bonded them securely using liquid nail adhesive. Finally, we drilled precise holes in the fascia capping, allowing the glass railing nuts and bolts to fit seamlessly.

This method created a clean, strong, and flawless finish, integrating perfectly with the glass railing system while meeting the customer’s exact design requirements.

End Result:

• A happy customer with high design expectations met.

• Beautiful, ripple-free fascia capping.

• A sleek integration with the steel beam and glass railing.
