Patio cover installation
Keep the ADU entrance distinct within the cover layout.
Label the primary-home and accessory-dwelling doors on the plan, then draw the route to each through or around the proposed shelter. Ask the designer to resolve entry recognition, privacy and the relationship to the buildings. A shared patio concept should not leave the separate dwelling’s approach to an unmarked gap between furniture and posts.
Draw the approach.
Include cover supports, seating and the route a visitor takes to the accessory entrance.
Carry the entry into the design.
Have the designer coordinate the shelter’s architecture and entry relationship with the relevant building proposal.

Keep structural support, attachment and drainage in the assessed cover proposal. An entrance layout is not the completed engineering design.
