Once your fastening system has been determined and all of your measurements are indicated on the wall as described

earlier, hold up your first bracket, mark the wall, and drill into the brick or masonry with your masonry bit deep enough to fully

house the lag shields or anchoring system. Remove the bolt from the bracket and attach it to the wall using a washer and

hardware – but do not fully tighten. Next, with your level, square up the bracket and pre-drill for the second hole. Once the

second hole is drilled and the fastener is started, you can proceed with tightening both bolts, avoiding over tightening. Pro-

ceed in the same fashion for the rest of the brackets. Proceed to SECURING THE AWNING IN THE BRACKETS section.

Installing Into Drivit™ Style Finishes:

Using a stud finder, determine the location of the wall studs. With all of your measurements indicated on the wall as described

earlier, hold up your first bracket, mark the wall and probe for the center of the wall stud using a 1/8" drill bit – the bracket

will most likely cover the extra holes which you should caulk before mounting the bracket. Once the center of the stud is de-

termined, take the installation bracket and trace the footprint on the wall. Using a Sawzall or Rotozip, proceed to cut out the

surface and all foam until you get all the way to the plywood sheathing. Note: avoid using a battery powered hole saw,

typically the speed in not sufficient and if you catch the chicken wire mesh underneath it may tear causing visual damage to

the wall surface.

For this application, you will need to build out the surface even with your wall finish. Most homeowners will cut a "build out

block" from a pressure treated 2" x 4" the size of the bracket and drill two ½" holes allowing the lag screws to pass through.

With the build out block and installation bracket in place, pre-drill a ¼" hole the length of the lag screw – remember your goal

is to get into the wall stud a minimum of 2 ½" while not splitting the stud. Remove the bolt from the bracket and attach it to

the wall using a washer and lag screw – but do not fully tighten. Next, with your level, square up the bracket and pre-drill for

the second hole. Once the second hole is drilled and the lag is started, you can proceed with tightening two lag screws, avoid-

ing over tightening and stripping out the stud. Caulk around the bracket covering the edge of the finish to create a weather-

proof seal – you DO NOT want to allow moisture to get into any openings you created. Proceed in the same fashion for the

rest of the brackets. Proceed to SECURING THE AWNING IN THE BRACKETS section.

SOFFIT MOUNTING

Installing To A Soffit (under an eve or overhang):

Prepare the area by opening the soffit to determine if solid mounting can be achieved by attaching to

the roof rafters or other structural framing. If solid mounting is available, mount directly to the soffit. If

the ends of the roof rafters are near, but not extending to the soffit surface you may want to use a 2" x

8" header board across the rafter ends to build out the area. When mounting a header board, pre-drill

¼" holes to avoid splitting of the board and rafters; apply two lags to every other rafter. Make sure your

lags get at least 2½" into the rafters. Once the header board is built out even with the bottom of the soffit,

replace the soffit covering and install the mounting brackets through the covering and into the header

board.

With all of your measurements indicated on the soffit cover as described earlier, hold up your first

bracket, mark the soffit cover, and probe for the center of the stud using a 1/8" drill bit (if you just installed

a header board you can skip this step) – the bracket will most likely cover the extra holes which you

should caulk before mounting the bracket.

Once the center of the stud has been located, pre-drill a ¼" hole the length of the lag screw – remember your goal is to get

into the wall stud a minimum of 2 ½" while not splitting the stud. Remove the bolt from the bracket and attach it to the wall

using a washer and lag screw – but do not fully tighten. Next, with your level, square up the bracket and pre-drill for the second

hole. Once the second hole is drilled and the lag is started, you can proceed with tightening two lag screws, avoiding over

tightening and stripping out the stud. Proceed in the same fashion for the rest of the brackets. Proceed to SECURING THE

AWNING IN THE BRACKETS section.
