NOTE: YOU WILL FIND THAT THE FITTINGS HAVE BEEN PRE-INSTALLED, AS WE
HAVE PRE-ASSEMBLED AND INSPECTED IT FOR YOU IN THE FACTORY.
Charleston Style Awning Frame must be installed on the wall as there is no
connecting part between AA and TB
STEP 1: Separate all of the parts by part number so they will be easy to
assemble.
STEP 2: Top Bar (TB) must be installed first. C-Channel on the TB must be
close to the wall. Before installing the TB you must make sure that there is
enough space below the TB for the height of the awning. Example CH22 style will
need 31” of the space for the height of the awning (please see the chart below
for the height measurements).
