Just because the temperature is dropping doesn’t mean your time spent outside is over for the year!
You can still enjoy the crisp fall air and the changing colors in the trees from your outdoor deck or patio. Adding a few deck accessories can help protect you from chilly breezes and rain so you can still host get-togethers and enjoy your deck well into the fall.
Adding a screen rail to your deck or underdeck area adds some protection from the elements, as well as keeps bugs away. Screen rails are a very cost-effective way to add a protected space to an existing deck. Screen rails come in a variety of finishes to easily integrate with existing deck railings.
Another way to make your deck even more comfortable in cool weather is to add water-resistant underdeck ceilings. This doubles your usable deck space by creating an additional useable outdoor space beneath your deck. Underdecking not only visually transforms the space below a deck, but it also turns it into an inviting outdoor space that’s protected from the elements.
With your decking materials in place for cooler weather, throwing a cozy fall get-together is easy! Serving fall favorites like chili, cornbread, and hot chocolate or apple cider are sure to be crowd-pleasers. Add a few stacks of warm blankets and ingredients for s’mores and you’ll be all set to enjoy the gorgeous fall weather right in your backyard!
