The dimensions should be measured by a professional only. If the awning you select is not the right size then it may not be easy to install.


2. Mark the centre position


Before you install the awning or the shade screen you have to ensure that you have marked the centre position on the wall. The frame of the awning should be in the right position. The central point has to be marked on the wall and the frame should be marked as well.


Always ensure that you make use of the permanent marker to mark the points on the frame and the wall. This is important as it may take time for you to install the frame on the wall. Always check the frame should be in alignment with the door.


3. Use proper lines


It is advisable to draw a straight line before the awning is installed on the wall. You should take precautions that you seek help from someone when installing the awning on the wall. The awning frame may not be lightweight. So you have to ask for help to hold the awning in position.

4. Mark the position for the brackets


Before you can install the awning it is safe to install the brackets in position. You should always take the most accurate measurements. Do not install the awning as you installed one of the brackets. You may need to install at least two or more brackets in position.


Once the brackets are in position then you can install the awning on the brackets. It is important to check that all the nuts and bolts of the awning have been installed perfectly in place. Do test the awning for a retraction before it is installed on the wall
