Installation on Masonry:
A ½
” x 3” Sleeve Bolt has been included for mounting your awning on Brick, Stone,
or Concrete surfaces. Use the
“BRACKET DRILL PATTERN” template included in the
package (small scale version shown to the right) to locate the position of all the holes.
Be very careful to double check your dimensions before drilling.
Using a ½” Carbide (Masonry) drill bit drill a minimum of 2-1/4” depth in each hole
being careful to keep the holes as straight as possible. Once complete, blow any
excess material out of each hole.
Locate the WALL BRACKET that you have decided to install the GEAR MECHANISM on. Place this bracket over the
holes just drilled and
insert one 3/8” x 2-1/4” Sleeve Bolts through the bracket holes and into the holes just in the wall;
it may be necessary to lightly tap them in with a hammer, if they are too tight remove the fastener and looseN off the
bolt to allow the sleeve to collapse and re-insert in the hole. Using
a 5/8” wrench or adjustable wrench, tighten each
bolt until snug.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THESE BOLTS
. ON masonry if you find that each bracket is not laying
flush on the surface you may wish to shim the back of the bracket to avoid damage and provide a secure mount.
Installation on Header Board:
Go to section “ADDITIONAL MATERIAL / HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS” and determine which fasteners you’ve
chosen to use to install the Awning on the header board. The method and fastener that was selected will determine
the diameter of the hole that that must be drilled as well as the hole depth.
Once the holes have been drilled and the hardware has been acquired, place the Right and Left Brackets over the
holes, insert the fastener and secure as per the recommendations provided with the fastener selected.
