Does it have to be completely vertical in order to work properly? It will run up in front of a window so cannot use window awning.

We have ours tilted backward somewhat to keep from obscuring the driver's front window and it still works fine.

You can run at an angle to avoid obstructions as long as that angle is not more than 20 degrees from vertical (approximately a 3ft tilt at the top when fully assembled). If you have your owner's manual check out page 9. We make parts specifically for routing around large windows and awnings. If you don't have your owner's manual then send us an email to info@camco.net. We would be glad to send you a PDF.

I did not hang it vertically. It looks like you could although I did not try it that way.

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.

Yes, it does. I use use the horizontal mode but it will work vertical, also.

I have never tried to install in vertically only horizontally so I am afraid I don't know the answer to your question

I have it mounted horizontal but don't see why it can't be mounted vertical . Great product !

With this model the arm will be on the left side so you may have some arm hanging over with one of the awnings. It can't be switched to the other side. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It will stand up in the "landscape" view. It's not super stable, but it works as long as its a flat, smooth surface.

Not intended for vertical use. It will tend to flow with gravity and is best on a flat, horizontal surface!. This is not a paste or glue!

I also have a low eave where I mounted mine - which is just outside my sliding door out to my raised deck. The unit has the ability to adjust the angle of the decline of the awning. I have mine adjusted midway because I don't want it to be too close to my grill while, at the same time, allowing a light rain to run off of it if I don't remember to roll it up.

If you use the hook, it hangs vertically. Because it's gravity driven, it cannot be used horizontally unless you build a special sheath for it. Hope this helps.

I don't know. We mounted it the normal flat way and it works fine. I am not sure if it can be mounted vertically.

Yes- the way it mounts doesn't change. You may have to get creative depending on your window design but I have them mounted vertically and horizontally with no problem.

The arms that come with the awning are only 28" long and need to be mounted directly beneath the awning. I would be impossible to get them to extend straight out but if you add extenders, I used 3/4" x 3/4" x 48" garden stakes, you can get it to act more like a shade awning. I suppose if you positioned the extended arms about half way down from the top then you could get the awning to extend almost straight out when extended by when you retract it the front of the awning would be about two feet above the back of the awning once it got back to the wall. So if you don't mind that look then yes you could get it to extend straight out. The arms are spring loaded at the joint that attaches to the wall and the part that attaches to the front of the awning is just a bolt, not a swivel, so not much you can do about that connection without spending a lot of money.

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.

I believe the instructions says it must be mounted vertically. I feel that if it were mounted at an angle of 45 degrees it would work fine.

That depends on the amount of curvature you have. This awning normally stows away in a straight line. If you use this awning, you would most likely have to slide it on and off each time you set it up. A slight curve could possibly be compensated for with the height of the legs when extended. My answer would be "Maybe".
