Installation of awning
The installation should be carried out by professional!
Warning!
Incomplete fasteners will weaken the product strength and cause potential danger.
1. Identify all parts packed in carton against
the parts list. Remove all protective packing
material. Place parts on non-abrasive surface
to avoid scratches. Do not attempt installation
if any parts are missing or damaged.
2. Mark the appropriate place for your
awning (ideal height: 8’ from the floor or
ground; not less than 79”). Center the area
over the focal point (doors/windows etc.).
3. Start from the mid point where you want
your awning to be place. Make a removable
vertical mark with chalk. Measure the
distance of the two outer wall brackets.
Use a chalk line to draw a line from end to end.
This should be where the top of the brackets
will be placed and should be level. Note: This
line may not be parallel with other structural
lines, such as siding, etc.
4. The location of the brackets is fixed on the
awning. It can not be moved or altered.
Measure the distance between the brackets
on the awning and install the brackets at the
same distance. The brackets must be attached to the wall vertically.
5. Installation varies according to the wall type. Use the mortar or masonry anchors for
concrete or brick wall. If the wall type is wood or siding then use the lag screws/bolts. If
there are no wall studs available at the location of the wall brackets then we recommend you
installing a runner/6” x 2” (equal to the width of the awning) lumber first and then install the
wall brackets on the runner.
6. The installation instructions are generic and please seek an advise from a
hardware/construction professional before you installing the awning.
