Step 1: Chose Mounting Location
Ensure that you also take the drop height into account when deciding on where to install the awning.
The drop angle can still be changed after assembly. The ideal drop angle, however, has already been
set at the factory and may only be changed minimally.
We recommend that the awning front bar has a height of at least 2.5 m when it is fully extended – if
your local conditions to not allow this you can mount the awning in lower position. The horizontal cen-
tre line through the lower drilling holes must be 60 cm higher than the axis of the front bar to meet the
minimum tilt angle of 14°.
In the event you would like to mount it above a balcony door, you should leave a space of at least
20 cm above the door frame if there is enough space available above the door frame.
Figure 1:
When choosing the mounting location you must take
tilt angle into consideration.
We recommend that the awning front bar has a
height of at least 2.5 m, total drop A must be at least
0.60 m.
At a height of the front bar of 2.50, the horizontal
central line connecting the drilling holes must be at a
height of 3.10 m.
Step 2: Mark Drilling Holes
After choosing the mounting position you can mark where you need to drill holes for the brackets.
Draw a horizontal line at the height of the required place. Use a long tape measure, a level and chalk.
We already marked where the brackets need to be mounted, and the width of brackets has been
stated.
Hold a bracket with the lower mounting hole at the height of the chalk line to the wall (please see
figure 5 for correct position of bracket), and mark the two drilling holes. Use the mark of the middle
bracket as a template by running a marker pen through the holes of the brackets. Alternatively you
can use the packing to make a centre mark template. Just lay the awning inclusive brackets on the
packaging and mark the drilling holes. Then hold the template against the wall in corresponding
height. Use a level.

Mark drilling holes by using a chalk line to ensure that the
awning will be level after mounting.
