FAQs
Does the awning provide protection against snow?
Yes, the Bordeaux awning is designed to handle standard snow loads, but heavy accumulation should be cleared to prevent excessive strain.
Can I install this on a brick wall?
Yes, but you must use the appropriate masonry anchors suitable for brick or concrete surfaces.
Will the panels turn yellow over time?
The panels are specifically treated to be UV-resistant and are designed to prevent yellowing or brittleness over years of use.
Does it come with mounting hardware?
The kit includes the structure and assembly components, but you may need to purchase specific wall-fastening anchors depending on your home's exterior material.
How do I clean the canopy?
Use a soft cloth or sponge with a mixture of water and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive tools or harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking between the wall and the awning
Apply a bead of high-quality silicone sealant along the top edge where the awning meets the wall.
Awning feels loose after installation
Verify that all wall anchors are fully tightened and the wall material is structurally sound enough to support the weight.
Debris clogging the front gutter
Periodically clear the aluminum gutter of leaves or twigs to ensure water flows freely to the sides.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the Bordeaux awning, ensure you have a flat, level surface on your exterior wall. The kit utilizes a screw-free assembly for the panel connection, but you will need standard tools for anchoring the unit to your wall. Always use appropriate anchors for your specific wall material (brick, concrete, or wood). For care, the awning is essentially maintenance-free; however, an occasional rinse with a garden hose and mild soap is recommended to remove accumulated dust or debris from the panels and the front gutter. Avoid using abrasive sponges that might scratch the panel finish.
