    Every time I called Gary about the install, he used the wind as the reason why he can't come out. That was 4 months ago

    Our fleet of trucks go to Double C Canvas every time they need straps and tarps. Their pricing is…read morebetter than online shopping and the people there take care of everything for us. They have a great product and really great people there. You can really tell that the employees like working there, and that's important to me as a business owner.

    I've had 2 consecutive negative experiences with this establishment, and both times were because…read moreRoy, the owner, tried to overcharge me on labor hours and use bait & switch tactics. 1st experience with Roy was about 3 months ago when I walked in and Roy was at the counter. I had to scrape up over $2,000 on securement supplies, including an additional $500+ on an 18" diamond plated step box that Roy talked me in to. Roy walked out to my truck with me and it was determined that he could install the box and that the box was around $450 plus an $89 install fee. I agreed to the price and Roy told his warehouse manager to go ahead and install the box. The installer was doing everything in his power to install the box and had to fabricate a bracket to get the box to fit in the selected area. Roy comes back from lunch and tells me that he needs to charge me an additional amount (over $200) because the install didn't include fabricating. I told him that he never mentioned any fabrication fee and that I was only told that the install was $89. He then started to belittle me by talking down to me. That's when I told him that I wasn't going to pay anymore than what was initially quoted. He refused to honor that and I told him to forget the box then. Roy told the installer to remove the brackets and I went on my way. The second bad experience was today. I called Roy on the phone and brought up the 1st experience and he said he remembered me. I asked him if he still had the box and what was the final price going to be with install. He told me the initial $89 install fee would still be applied but an additional $69 per hour for every hour after the 1st hour. I agreed and asked him if he still had the 18" diamond plated box. He said yes, that he hasn't sold that size. He also said that everything in stock has been discounted until Christmas. I arrived at 12:30pm with install beginning at 1pm as everybody was at lunch. We walked out to the truck, where the installer followed. The installer remembered me and the 3 of discussed the install options. During this discussion Roy talked me into also purchasing an additional diamond plated logger box for $250, which would be installed between the legs of my headache rack. It fit perfectly and it covered up the large hole behind my catwalk. I was very pleased and everything was finally getting done... that is until the installer brought out an 18" smooth face step box. I told him that I was supposed to be getting the diamond plate box. He said they didn't have that in stock. He called Roy (as Roy was at lunch) and Roy told the installer that it would take 4-6 weeks to get the diamond plate box. I asked if they could replace the lid from the smooth face box with a diamond plated lid from a logger box seeing they were the same size. Roy said no and hung up. The installer said that I could order it at the current sale price and have it installed the next time I could get in to town. I agreed and we proceeded. Several hours passed and the fabrication continued. Another warehouse worker became freed up and the installer had him start working on the install of the logger box. He had to cut 4 pieces of 4"x4" plate so he could create a pinching bracket that attached the I-Frame of the truck. Half way into the install he gets interrupted by another Owner Operator who had just purchased his securement supplies. So my project had to wait almost 30 minutes because they went and gathered his supplies and take them to the other driver's truck. He returns and begins to assemble the bracket. Roy comes back from lunch and says that if I want the sale price, I need to take the smooth face box as he wouldn't be able to get the diamond plate box at the same price due to the new year pricing was going to be much higher. I told him I wanted it now, not next year. He said that they would charge him the new price now. I said that wasn't my fault and that I called ahead and he told me that they had it in stock. That's the only reason I drove the 45 miles. He said "it is what it is". I told him that the smooth face box wouldn't go with my truck as everything else was diamond plate. He didn't care and wasn't going to make things right, AGAIN! I told him to forget the box then and he went and stopped the fabrication process. They finished installing the logger box. I went in to pay the bill on the logger box only to see the bill was over $500. I questioned the 2 1/2 hour install and said how is this possible when there was no fabrication for it. Roys' wife comes out and tells me that this is the second time that I've caused them problems and said that I will pay the bill as it reads. I said no and to remove the box if they didn't adjust it to 1 hour. She told me they have been working on it since 1pm and that I was never welcomed back if they remove it. I said they been working on the step box since 1pm, not the logger and I wasn't coming back. Box was removed and I went on my way!

    I had a heck of a time ordering an awning. I wanted the full cassette Hampton model. First I…read moreordered from Home Depot only to be told a week later it was out of stock with no date of when it would be available. When I called Home Depot they said it was the color I ordered. I was then told they had 37 beige in stock so I ordered that color. Again I got an email about a week later saying they were out of stock! So, I ordered one from Amazon which listed how many of which color were in stock. You guessed it, I got an email saying it was out of stock and they'd email more info when they they knew more. When I realized I could buy direct from Awntech I figured that's the way to go. I ordered the Hampton only to be called a few days later to be told it was out of stock and even they couldn't tell me when it would be available again! I was told I could get the Galveston model instead and they'd throw in my choice of a motor or winter cover for the same price. Not sure how they figure they were "throwing in" a motor or winter cover on a model that was $200 cheaper. So, the actual offer was 'we have a $200 cheaper model and we'll sell you your choice of a motor or winter cover that way the total will be the same and we can keep all the money you've already given us and not refund a dime'. I didn't really want a motorized awning or need a winter cover so, just went with the partial cassette Galveston model 14' wide, 10' extension. They threw in 'rush status' on the order which was nice and refunded $150. I got the awning about two weeks later! Packaging was okay but there were a few spots that poked out that weren't protected well enough and had the paint rubbed off. The installation instructions left plenty to be desired but it was easy to figure out what needed to be done. I came up with my own plan of action that required no measuring or layout and ended up taking me less than an hour to install on a beam between two posts under my eaves. Here's how I recommend doing the install: Rent a light, hand crank material or drywall lift. Using towels for protection, place the awning on it in it's mounted position relative to your wall. Crank it up to where you want to mount it, make sure it's level, and put a mark in the center, at the bottom of each bracket. Lower the awning to where you can easily access your marks. Drill the bottom pilot hole for the center lower bolt for the bracket. Using 3/8" lag bolts, washer (I used stainless which I believe awntech recommends. The 3/8" will give you room to slightly adjust each bracket) and impact driver mount the bracket through the bottom center hole and tighten to almost tight. Use a level across the top of the bracket and drill the top two pilot holes (one on each side), and bolt to almost tight. Lift the awning back into position and place on brackets. Adjusting each bracket to make sure the awning is seated in it, tighten the lower center lag bolt with a wrench. Remove the awning from the brackets back onto lift. Tighten all mounting bracket lag bolts with impact drill. Put awning back on the brackets and bolt the two halves of the mounting brackets together using the provided bolts. You're done - maybe. Unless you're luck enough to have it come at angle you want, you'll have to adjust that. Those instructions are worse than the mounting instructions. Here's how to do that: take the round cover off each end of the cassette housing where the extension arms attach to it using a 10mm wrench. Loosen the two bolts using a 17mm wrench. Adjust the Allen head set screw.....righty tighty to raise the leading edge of the awning, lefty loosey to lower it. Tighten the 17mm bolts, replace the cover. Lastly, I highly recommend getting the optional support rods. Again, instructions are less than worthless when they tell you to remove one of the bolts mounting the extension arm to the awning bar and put the support piece in with that bolt. That won't work! You need to remove the plastic cap on the end of the bar by removing the one Phillips screw and juggling the cap out. Slide the strut nut on the L shaped piece in the support rod into the awning bar. Slide to where you want it and tighten. Replace end cap. Mount the bottom bracket wherever you want using hardware of your choice (I used small stainless lag bolts to attach to deck). I also changed the hardware attaching the bar to the lower brackets so I can just remove a wing nut and pull out a bolt to separate the bar from the bracket and retract the awning. With all this said, I like the product so far. My impression is it's reasonably priced in comparison to other manufacturers (that want to send a sales person to your house and hire out the installation - all driving up the price). For these reasons I give a higher 4 stars than I would otherwise.

    Love this awning. We went with the 14' wide model. Installation was straight forward and the team…read morewas a great help. I'm glad I went with the motorized option as it's a bit of a workout to extend and retract it manually. Also bought the wind sensor, which automatically retracts it when the Texas winds start blowing. Definitely worth the money.
