How Do I Measure for a Retractable Patio Awning?

Short answer: Measure the clear wall width, mounting height, available projection, and any doors, windows, lights, or downpipes that affect installation.

Measurements to Record

• Clear width available for the cassette
• Height from the mounting line to the patio floor
• Required projection from the wall
• Door, window, and obstacle positions
• Wall material and anchor points

Before Ordering

The awning size should fit both the facade and the shaded area. A professional site check should confirm the wall structure, bracket layout, electrical supply, and safe clearance.
