[font size="3"]Strange you should ask. This is fixable. Sometimes, when the awning is fully retracted, the door may rub on it. This can be cured by leaving the vertical supports slightly extended before rolling up the awning. Usually one or two holes from the bottom end is sufficient. There are small pins on each support to set the closed position. They can be moved to adjust the height of the retracted awning and eliminate the door rub.[/font]
