that's a great deal. I know Costco provides an awning service (the name escapes me at the moment)
and motorized awnings in your dimensions is probably in the neighborhood of $1,500.
I agree. The install and wiring is a no brainer I can do it myself (there's an outlet inside the den that's
on the outside facing wall next to the sliding glass doors that I could tap directly into, or even just
tap into the deck light.).

Not mind at all...since I am a DIY'er I installed the'
awning and the 110 outlet run myself..absorbing the cost
of the conduit, #14 wire and outlet, etc etc
the awning cost me about $750 not counting the electric
and lag bolts to mount the thing..it was very very
sim[ple to do..it was an outfit in Colorado...the vendor
escapes me at the moment but they sell a ton of stuff
for Rv'ers as well..
