ATTENTION: Warning Statement
Warning: Adult assembly required
Warning: Assembly kit contains parts with sharp points, sharp edges, and small parts that can
present choking hazards to children.
Warning: Components are packed in plastic bags that are a suffocation hazard.
NOTE: Please inspect the parts for damage during shipping and/or for any missing items. If you suspect
that there may be damage or a shortage, contact us and we will send replacement parts if needed. At this
time, visualize how the components fit together and make sure that you have identified the various parts.
Hardware for different surface applications
Prior to assembly, please take a moment to understand the type of mounting surface you are working
with. There are a variety of installation surfaces as shown in the table below. Given the wide variety of
mounting surfaces, please be aware that Awntech does not supply mounting hardware. You will need to
purchase installation hardware at your local hardware store. We recommend the following hardware for
different installation applications:
CONCRETE BLOCK WALLS:
¼
” x 3” Masonry anchor bolts or Tapcon Screws plus Washers (1 per
bracket)
WOOD OR SIDING:
¼
” x 3” Lag Screws plus Washers (1 per bracket)
OTHER STRUCTURES: CONSULT A PROFESSIONAL
Measuring Guide
Please refer to the below measuring guide for our Houstonian model awning. The image shown below
represents the back of the Houstonian frame, or the part of the frame that is in contact with the mounting
surface. It should be noted that the back frame of our Houstonian model awning varies only in width between
our standard sizes. The top left corner measurements shown below are fixed between all Houstonian model
awnings and are mirrored on the opposite side of the frame (top right corner).
The table in next page reflects the “TOTAL (in)” width between the outermost edges of the awning, along
with the “INSIDE (in)” width between the back left and back right bar mounting tabs (Table 1).
To obtain additional inside width between the back left and back right mounting tabs , it is
recommended to rotate clockwise 180° the back bars to provide an additional 1
” on both sides (Table 2).
This would result in the back left and back right bar mounting tabs to be situated on the outside of
the awning.
Please note that the image shown on the following page is not drawn to scale.

Parts List (Mounting Hardware not included)
NOTE: A bottle of touch up paint is included with each awning for your convenience. After
assembly, please inspect your awning for scratches or exposed metal. If you notice exposed
metal, liberally apply touchup paint to the afflicted areas. Please note that the touchup paint not
only conceals the damages, but also protects the metal from corrosion or rust.
