On a timber framed house the roll brackets and pivot arms all have to be attached on the same vertical. This is a small modification I had to make to achieve this. One set of holes is away more for the gearbox. They are 75mm apart to fit on top of the corrugations.
Ozrite were very helpful making the roll the right width and delivery was prompt. I just hope they are designing new brackets because there's a lot of timber framed houses in Australia!

Easy to order. Easy to install. A progress email would have been great.

We are extremely happy with our purchase.
The ordering process was easy and they delivered within the specified time frame.
Both awnings are installed and we now await the interrogating morning sun at sunrise in coming months to truly test them.
