FAQs
Can I leave the awning out in the rain?
The fabric is water-repellent, so it can handle light rain, but it should be retracted during heavy downpours to protect the integrity of the spring mechanism.
What is the maximum extension length?
The awning extends to a maximum length of 300 cm.
Is the installation hardware included?
Yes, the product includes the necessary hardware to anchor the housing to the wall and the post to the floor.
Can I install this on a wooden deck?
Yes, provided the wood is thick and stable enough to securely hold the mounting screws for the post.
How do I clean the powder-coated steel housing?
Use a soft cloth with warm water and mild detergent; avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the coating.
Is the fabric UV resistant?
Yes, the fabric is designed to withstand standard sun exposure, helping to block low-hanging sun glare.
Troubleshooting
Awning fabric is sagging or loose
Check the locking mechanism on the post and ensure the fabric is pulled taut before locking it into place.
The automatic roll-up mechanism is sluggish
Check the housing for debris or dust that might be obstructing the spring action and ensure the fabric is wound evenly.
Awning handle does not latch into the post
Verify the post is perfectly vertical and aligned with the housing; adjust the floor mount if necessary.
