VIVOHOME Polycarbonate Window Door Awning Spliced Canopy Brown with Black Bracket 40 Inch x 80 Inch

Mounted on a wooden shingle house. I drilled some holes in the strong braces and used long wood screws with thick washers. On very sturdy and has been through windy days without issue.I put it together on a flat clean deck and it worked out ok. I like the look and the protection over my porch door.

This review is for VIVOHOME Polycarbonate Window Door Awning Spliced Canopy Brown with Black Bracket 40 Inch x 80 Inch.The awning kit was delivered promptly, complete and as described by the seller. The kit contains all required hardware and a pictorial instruction booklet.My pool-heater has suffered several electrical failures over the years; the manufacturer claims that this is due to rainwater running off the roof and falling onto the heater which is positioned just under the eaves. I purchased this VIVOHOME Polycarbonate Awning as an option to protect the pool-heater. The wall on which it was to be mounted has shutters and ductwork in the area; I knew that a 40" awning would fit well and I was hopeful that I could modify the 80" awning for additional coverage. On inspection, I came to the conclusion that any such modification would compromise the structural integrity so I opted to install only one 40" section.The helper elves were otherwise engaged so I assembled and installed single-handed; it took about 2.5 hours total. Assembly was straightforward; inside the garage to reduce wind disturbance. Installation was more of a challenge but was achieved without incident. I used a bubble level for alignment and I am satisfied with the result. The awning is lightweight but feels surprisingly sturdy when fixed in place. There has been rain since installation and the awning is providing the desired protection; it is too soon to comment on longevity.

It's a very nice looking canopy for our kitchen windows! The size was perfect for our two windows close together. Cuts down on the morning sun and was way cheaper than building supply stores around here.As for ease of installation and assembly you better have a good understanding of putting puzzles together. I did it by myself with a ground assist from my wife. I would recommend having up on the ladder help as it was shakey at times. Also they recommend not installing on wood sided houses which I didn't notice until I was reading directions. I used large lag screws which luckily hit wall studs to hopefully hold it. Otherwise it's been a good product so far.

I haven't installed it yet, but I'm very impressed with the quality and it looks great. I was concerned about the plastic brackets, but they seem very very sturdy. Would buy again

looks very nice and keeping the rain water away.

UPDATE........first mild windstorm and one side ripped out of the house, the other side bracket snapped. It is now garbage. Eould not recommend .It looks great and went together fairly easily, but the hardware included to fasten it to the wall is awful. They don't expand like they are supposed to. We threw them away and bought good ones. The panels are like a honeycomb plastic, so time will tell if it will last or not.

Good quality, easy to put together and install

I can’t find any information on this awning that I bought so that I can order a replacement part!! Please contact me !
