These are the minimum mounting heights, as measured straight up from your deck

or patio surface.

Awning Projection

8'2"

10'0"

11'6"

Once your location and mounting style has been determined, review the area, con-

firming that you have a clear span for the entire width of the awning with no light fix-

tures, downspouts, doors that open out (onto the deck or patio) or any other

obstructions. If you are wall or soffit mounting your unit and you have a door or win-

dow that opens out, you will need a minimum of 12" of clearance between the top of

the mounting bracket and the top of that door or window to clear the awning frame-

work and 16" to clear the fabric valance when retracted.

Lag Screw & Washer Guideline:

The total number of lag screws and flat washers needed is based on the awning width (or length) and mounting application.

Number of lag screws and washers needed – two per bracket are required (galvanized hardware is recommended):

Unit Width

Up to and including 12'11":

13' to 19'11":

Over 20':

Determining Proper Lag Screw Length*:

Roof Mount: 4"

Soffit Mount: 4" to 6" - depending on the amount of compressible material needed to be removed

Wall Mount: 4" to 6" - depending on mounting surface and the amount of compressible material needed to be removed (foam

insulation, vinyl siding, etc). You will be removing all material behind the installation brackets that can compress and com-

promise your installation.

PRODUCT HANDLING:

Your shading system has been assembled, tested, packaged, and shipped with care by skilled craftsmen – right here in the

USA. Please be careful when removing the unit from the box as to prevent damage – avoid dropping or dragging the unit.

DO NOT remove the clear plastic wrapping around the actual awning until you are ready to place it

into the installation brackets. This step will greatly reduce soiling or damaging of the fabric. When

it is time to place the awning into the installation brackets, be careful removing the clear plastic wrap-

ping as to NOT cut into the fabric – scissors rather than a razor is suggested.

General Installation Bracket Placement:

Before you start attaching brackets to the house, you need to take measurements.

There are certain "dead areas" of the awning where either the end bracket or the

arm shoulder will impede the square torsion bar from being inserted into the instal-

lation brackets. Begin this process by matching the width of the awning to the area

of the house designated for installation. Mark with a pencil where the awning will

go end to end, then with the use of a stud finder, determine and mark the location

of all of the available studs or roof rafters between your awning width marks. Helpful

hint: On roof mounts, you can sometimes lift up the ends of the roof shingles and

see the tail ends of the rafters. Next, measure the awning's square torsion bar and

take the dead areas and transpose them on to the house – this is where no brackets
