Planning and Layout of the Installation Location
The first step in installing your EasyAwn
™
is to determine where you will mount the awning. It should
be installed level and centered over the window or door.
If the door or window opens outward, the
awning must be high enough to provide clearance when the door or window is in the open
position.
Note: In some cities and counties there are building codes that specify how awnings can be
mounted.
Determine where you will be mounting the awning and refer to the figure below for typical locations of
studs and headers. The framing members outlined in Gray will provide an appropriate anchoring point
for the fasteners.
On masonry walls drill and insert anchors for the mounting screws. For other surfaces, locate the studs
for anchoring the supplied screws.
•
If the locations of the predrilled holes do not match your stud locations, drill new
¼
” holes in the
back bar of the frame to match your stud locations.
•
If you have planking or another thick surface over the framing, you may need to use longer
screws than those supplied to ensure a secure fastening.
