I just wanted to see if anyone else on the forum has or has dealt with an incorrectly installed Girard awning on their coach? Mine has the las set of bolts & bracket behind the refrigerator, instead of having the mount directly behind the arm furthest from the entry door. My last bracket is almost 3 feet away from that last arm, and is allowing the awning & the enclosure to pull away from the coach negating any caulking/sealant/paint that is placed on that corner. Andre with Girard said I have two options - one remove the awning & move the bracket to the correct location, very expensive, approx 10 - 15 hours to R&R the awning, and then whatever it takes to move the bracket. Two - open the awning and drill two holes through the back of the case/enclosure/wall/cabinet and place 4" bolts with a baking plate inside the cabinet to add support at the end.
At this point I am going to try number two with a local RV service center.
Please chime in if anyone has some concerns, as I value the opinions of the group!
Thanks in advance,
Dan
