MARKING YOUR AWNING POSITION:
On a Header Board:
Once your Header Board is secured to the wall mark the vertical centre of the header board on each end; use a
plumb line to clearly mark this line across the full width of the header board. Also measure to find and mark the
horizontal centre of the board.
On masonry, or other surface.
The Awning height should have already been marked on the wall, that mark is the upper most point of the Awning. To
find the vertical centre for the mounting point, measure down from your mark 6.25in (159mm). Measure this position
at both ends when the Awning will be located. Mark the horizontal centre where the Awning will be located.

mark the wall on the LEFT Side
Mark RIGHT SIDE MOUNTING BRACKET:
Take the BRACKET HOLE TEMPLATE, from this package and place the template with the RIGHT SIDE
INTERSECTION point over the intersection of the lines marked for the RIGHT SIDE of the Awning. Ensure that the
centre Line is straight over the plumb line marked on the wall. Use a pencil and push through the centre points for the
