checked for its capacity to support and tie down
this structure prior to construction by a suitably
qualified engineer.
NOTE 3 - The existing structure is assumed to
be stable in its own right and capable of carrying
the loads imposed by this structure. This must be
checked by a suitably qualified person prior to
construction.
NOTE 4 - Concrete slab must be a minimum of

IMPORTANT INFO - READ BEFORE CONSTRUCTION BEGINS
understanding of assembly
methods and associated details.
4. Unpack and carefully identify
and check off all the parts
against the parts described and
illustrated on “Components
List” page.
If you are missing anything do
not begin, contact Absco.
5. The structure shall be
erected on top of suitable
foundations and anchored down
appropriately.
The site for the structure must
be level. An uneven surface may
result in misalignment of parts.
6. Region specific: If required,
you have approval for the
structure. If unsure, seek advice
from relevant local authorities.
7. Some parts may have sharp
edges. It is recommended to
wear gloves when handling
items and safety glasses when
drilling holes. Sensible shoes
are highly recommended.
Minimum two people are
required to easily lift and align
assemblies.
8. Consider the weather and do
not build in windy conditions.
If the structure must be left for
a period of time uncompleted
it must be made safe to prevent
damage.
TOOLS REQUIRED
Use as a guide, other tools/equipment may be suitable. Safely work within your ability.
Please wear recommended
PPE for any tool used during
construction
!
1. Awnings are typically
attached to a fascia board
(beneath the gutter), or to a
wall.
The space required on the
existing structure for receiver
channel is 90 mm x 6125 mm
Max attachment height is 3180
mm - measured from foundation
to top of receiver channel
2. Fixing method is dependent
on material type and location.
This kit contains typical fasteners
for timber and steel fascia as
well as brick walls.
3. Information provided in this
manual regarding “existing
structure” is to be used as a guide
only, it is your responsibility that
connection detail is compliant
with applicable building codes.

RECEIVER CHANNEL 0. Refer to points 1 to 3 on page 2 before
beginning this step.
1. Mount the first receiver channel TR38 to the
existing structure using the correct fixing method
below.
Make sure the receiver channel is oriented with
the longer side to the top.
A. Brickwork
Fix 14 x 45mm Tapcon screw every 450mm (not
suitable for structures with no eaves or two story
with blueboard over brick). Ensure a minimum of
5 courses above the receiver channel.
B. Timber fascia
Fix the receiver channel TR38 every 600mm to
the timber fascia with 12 x 50 Type 17 timber
screws.
C. Steel Fascia
NOTE: This will require roofing to be removed to
access to rafter.
At every 900mm fit a supplied rafter bracket BK5
to existing rafter.
Fix this to receiver channel TR38 with a self
drilling tek or bolt.

RECEIVER CHANNEL
2. Mount the second receiver channel TR38
using the correct fixing method.
Make sure it is flush against the first and it’s
straight.
3. Mark out the anchoring position for the posts
next.
4. Place the two post bracket BK4 centred over
these marks.
Drill the hole for the anchor using the post
baseplate as a template.
Use a hammer drill with a 12mm diameter
masonry drill bit drill to a depth of 100mm
Fasten to foundations with a concrete screw
FAST103 per bracket using a 16mm socket or
spanner.

POSTS
1. Now work out the height of the posts for the
standard 2 degree fall.
Take a measurement from foundation up to the
underside of the mounted receiver channel, let’s
call this dimension ‘x’. Then subtract 90 mm to
determine finished post height.
NOTE:
If height to underside of receiver channel is at
the maximum height, 3090 mm, do not trim
post. Instead go to step 3.
2. Take a post PT5 and mark all faces then safely
cut post to length. Consider sealing cut with
supplied paint.
3. Take a BK3 bracket and orientate as shown
and align so it’s flush with the end and side of
the post.
4. Fasten with five FAST100 tek screws and
5/16” nut setter.
Make sure screws are inset 20 mm from the
edges of bracket for beam clearance.
To keep the parts aligned while fastening use a
clamp or visegrips.
This completes the left post
5. Make the right post by repeating these steps
but aligning and fixing the BK3 bracket as shown
below.
This completes the right post.

POSTS
6. Take the left post and place over the anchored
post bracket.
Make sure the post is orientated so the top
bracket is as shown.
7. Use a spirit level check the post is vertical and
fasten with four FAST100 tek screws and 5/16”
nut setter.
8. Repeat for the right post.
9. Consider bracing the posts to keep them
vertical during the next step.
Use ropes, straps or timber. Be careful to not
scratch the powdercoated posts.

FITTING THE SHURELOCK BEAM
NOTE: Beam orientation is important to prevent
water entry.
Orientate the beam so the exterior face has the
overlap to the top.
1. Remove the protective plastic coating from
the outside of the beam.
2. Safely lift and place a SB2 beam inside the
post brackets BK3 as shown.

2. Make sure the ends of the beam are all the
way into the brackets and fasten each end with
four FAST100 tek screws.
These are visible screws so take time to position
them on the centreline of the BK3 bracket and
space accordingly.
*Fit this tek below the gutter after it is attached
later.

The end with ‘top skin’ overhang & sticker must
go to the front.
The other end goes into the receiver channel and
requires some preparation.
A. Check the foam core is flush with the top and
bottom skins. If it bulges out, safely trim flush with
a Stanley knife.
B. Check if the steel ‘Bottom skin’ corner is bent
down below the bottom face. Bend it up with
pliers.
C. To increase weather protection turn up the
pans 15 degrees with a turn up/down tool or
equivalent as shown
Familiarize yourself with the weight and orientation
of the AD1 panel before lifting.
The ‘bottom skin’ has a protective plastic coating,
this can be peeled off just before lifting.
Remember to lift and place do not slide, this can
scratch the panel.
1. Safely position the first panel on top of the
beam and insert into the receiver channel - all the
way to the right.
The steel ‘top skin’ edge will be flush with right
end of the receiver channel as shown.
2. Check the beam for alignment, the roof panel
bottom skin is to be flush with the exterior side of
the beam as shown.
3. For now fix the AD1 panel to the receiver panel
from below with two 4mm pop rivets FAST102.
Inset 150 mm from the right and another 300 mm
further along.
4. Fasten the front edge of the roof panel to
beam with a tek 14 x 125 mm FAST104 through
the centre-most rib.
Don’t over-tighten and crush the panel.
For further screw position detail see page 11.

5. Safely place and mate the next AD1 panel.
Please note the bottom skin male and female
features.
6. Carefully push the panel up so it goes all the
way into the receiver channel and is flush along
the front beam - Just like the 1st panel.
7. As before fix the panel to the receiver channel
from below with 4mm pop rivets FAST102 at 300
mm spacings.
8. Lay the rest of the panels in this same manner.
