UpSide Channels come in 10, 12 and 16 feet so lengths must not exceed 16 feet per area. For this calculator, round up your dimensions to whole feet, no decimals.

  • Please note that due to the varying dimensions of decks with multiple areas, the calculator may provide extra Edge Trim, C-Channel and Glide Clips.

    To calculate your actual number of C-Channels: determine the total linear footage of all areas that border the house/structure (opposite of your gutter) of your UpSide project. Divide total by 10.

    To figure your actual number of Edge Trim pieces, determine the total linear footage of all left and right edges (projecting away from the house/structure) for each section of UpSide that you are installing. Divide this total by 10.

    The calculator accurately figures the number of Glide Clips for each individual section and rounds that total up. So, if you have multiple sections, you may have an extra box (Qty. 100) of Glide Clips.
