How to find studs for very heavy motorized awning?
I have a 20' long Sunsetter awning I'll be mounting. It has 6 brackets that I'll mount in the area marked on the picture (top of brackets 9' high). This lines up with just above the ceiling height, so I think I'd drill into the outermost joist anywhere I go. Is that correct? Is there any way I can ensure I go even further into floor joists? submitted by /u/scott12333 [link] [comments]
