Electric awning - Don't like the durned thing! Rant!

Got an electric awning, thought this was a nice thing....... Used it a couple times and very quickly realized what a total pain in the backside it is. It has 2 positions - in, or out. Period. ...

The overall tilt of these awnings is due to the hardware- for Dometic (A&E). the standard hardware drops the roller tube 13"- for basement hardware, the roller tube is 31" lower- quite a difference. If you have less than 12" from the top of the door to the awning rail, standard hardware must be used.
