My hardscape supplier offered me another suggestion for the bay/doorwall. He suggested filling the space under the bay with my base (tamping from the side) then applying a thin layer of tar around the bay where the pavers will meet the wood stucko. The tar is supposed to provide protection from water. At this point, I may not go through the extra trouble and cost required to build up to the doorwall. I'm leaning toward building the patio a few inches below the bay doorwall which will save me some time, trouble and money.
If i do leave a few inches below the bay, i will have to lay a thin bead of concrete edging that follows around the bay to keep the pavers locked in - then fill the area under the bay with stones. I guess i'll have to hide the opening with some planters.
