Step 1

Mark up 7' 0" from sidewalk or ground on building. Your city code may require a higher minimum height.

Step 2

From the 7' mark, measure up the side of the building (from 1 to 2) to where you want the awning to stop at the top. This is your drop. You can go up as high as you would like remembering that you must maintain a flat plain. We can make off sets, call one of our Awning Specialist for help.

Step 3

You projection (from 3 to 4) and it can be any length up to 1 1/2 times your drop.

Step 4

Measure the width (from 5 to 6) for the awning.

Taking photos of the project site is very helpful for everyone. It gives TCT&A specialists an opportunity to see where you want the awning to go. TCT&A can send you a rendering with the awning on your building to give a representation how an awning will appear when installed.

A cloudy day is best and take the picture at a 30 degree angle with any sun behind you.
