Hi Steve, Feel lucky to have two weekend posts back to back! Good solution for the access to the top tracks. For even more access, cut the fascia back inside the helix to 1.5"-2.5". Paint the new narrow fascia and remaining levels and blocks black. Just my two cents worth :) Take care my friend......Mike
Hi Mike, thanks for the feedback and yes two weekends in a row is a first for me probably! I was actually thinking about doing that with the fascia too. Eventually it will have black curtains hanging from it so it shouldn’t matter how long or short it. I’ve actually been able to unscrew the hardware keeping those inner helix fascia pieces in and remove it as needed. I had zero incidents on the helix until I put in the fascia. 😂 Thanks again for the feedback! - Steve
Good job buddy, looks really good. You and I have talked over the years about doing helixes and problems that exist with that. At least you came up with a plan and it looks good.

@@garykcs5532 thanks Gary, yeah I don’t like helixes and will never do another. At least it works for now. - Steve
Looks nice Steve, you wouldn't know they were there, if you didn't tell us. Bob
Thanks Bob, appreciate the feedback. - Steve
