Do I need anything extra to attach to awning?

it comes with hooks and sliders to attach it to your awning via every second grommet. I bought extra at a local hardware store just to make the awning a little less saggy between grommets. Similarly, I bought extra tent pegs for the bottom to make it more secure in a wind storm.

It attaches to the awning with zippers. It must be a dometic trim line bag awning or the zippers will not match.

I went outside to take measurements. The total length of the square metal tube that holds up awning is 9'8". The area for the mounting brackets is 9" (4.5" per side). I would tell you the 9' mounting area is not long enough...you need 9" more to install mounting brackets.

Our awning came with instructions for mounting on cement. Most homes in the U.S. are not cement. We bought bolts for the wood frame and re-enforced with another 2" board. It hung with ease - a 2 person job. This is the 2nd summer to use our awning. Other than the fact that the fabric faded quickly, the awning has been useful and easy to operate. Unlike Sunsetter or better brands many parts are plastic and require more delicate handling.

Assuming you are talking about the manual control awning, yes. It is not necessary for the awning to be fully extended. You have the control (simply by stopping your action) of extending or retracting the awning to the position that works best for you. While you probably could do the same for the motor powered version, I don't have that model.

Thank you for your question. The pioneer RV endcap upgrade is for a carefree system. It will not fit a dometic awning.

If I recall correctly, you shouldn't need anything else -- maybe some electrical tape to hook it up to the existing wires.

There is a metal face bar that the extended end of the awning cloth fits into along with the scalloped cloth face for decoration. This metal bar has a slot that goes the full length of the bar. The head of each bolt at the ends of the arms fit into this slot and allow adjustment for arm width location. I placed mine about 3" inside each end of bar so wind would not blow them apart. Let me know if you need more. Good luck bud.

This awning is quite heavy and awkward to mount (need 2 or 3 people). I attached mine to the overhang of the roof, and the weight forced it to tilt forward. I had 3 L brackets made to support (and level) the weight of the awning. It worked perfectly. Please note: The awning (when open), will drop approximately 3 feet from mounting height.

Correct on one panel. How many you need will Depend on the size of your awning

You will need to buy the awning attachments with "S" hooks. They slip into the awning track. You can get them at Walmart in the RV section or on Amazon. Then you can hang the cord onto the hooks. This is a great string of lights.

I had a power awning and it was hard to slide into the track. It would be easier with a manual awning. As fas as I know the groove is the same for all awnings

If your awning measures 18' center arm to center arm then 17'2" is what you will need. Typically awning fabrics are going to be 10" shorter than the overall measurement of the awning. This is a universal replacement awning fabric made by carefree, but will also work for an A&E awning.

I believe that you can attach this awning just about anywhere. To attach it to your metal shed, I would mount securely a strip of wood to the side of the shed and then mount your awning. We attached the awning this way to the lip of our extended overhang to shade our small patio. Remember though this awning is for shade only. It is not waterproof.

I am sorry, I have only had the awning up for about a month. I wish I could help more.

Ours has been sold so I can't tell for sure. It seems like it wouldn't hurt for it to hang past the track each end. Then again most awnings are shorter than the stated size anyway. Your track may be the standard you need.
