Components Needed 
  Hanging rail (A) 
  Hanging channel (C) 
  #12 x 2-1/2” 
Tools Recommended 
Determine and Measure center point for installation on desired structure wall 
FIRST: Place hanging rail in desired position 
on structure wall or roof fascia board and 
mark first hole to be drilled in hanging rail 
relative to rafters or wall studs. 
Widths greater than 16 ft will require two 
hanging rails connected at center point. 
SECOND: Place a mark 1” down from top 
hanging rail and drill ¼” into each rafter or 
studs across length of hanging rail. 
Keep level across hanging rail span. 
Hanging rail will connect directly to structure 
wall (lumber shown not required unless 
masonry surface) 
THIRD: Slide hanging channel into bottom of 
hanging rail then fasten hanging rail with #12 
x 2-1/2” screws to fascia board or wall across 
entire rail. 
Place a generous bead of seal across entire 
span between rail/wall space.
