PN Series Solid Polycarbonate Sheet Door Fixed Awning (47 in. W x 31 in. D) in Black Bracket

Thank you for reaching out to us! I understand that you would like to modify the PN Series by trimming 5 inches from the end of the polycarbonate sheet. Please note that when making any modifications to our polycarbonate awnings, it is essential to use the appropriate blade designed for polycarbonate to prevent the sheet from shattering. Additionally, please be aware that any modifications to our awnings will void the product warranty. If you would like more information about our door awnings or our limited product warranty, please do not hesitate to contact us. Best, Erika R. Advaning Awnings

Hello and thank you for your interest and inquiry. The PN SERIES can be mounted to most exterior surfaces with the provided Stainless Steel hardware, in some cases the hardware may be swapped out for the specific installation site. In cases where siding is involved, we recommend cutting through the siding to comment directly to the studs or header or using shims to level the surface. I hope this information helps, please contact us directly via our website for a faster response, we are available via Chat, Phone, and Email - thanks. Best Chris L. ADVANING

Mallet 7. Small Wood Block 8. Outdoor Rated Silicone Sealant 9. Ladders 10. Drill and Drill Bits *(Wood Install: 15/64 inch drill bit / Solid Masonry: 3/8 inch drill bit).
