26' GMC Zip Dee patio awning length - need a measurement [message #354430] Sun, 03 May 2020 19:49 Go to next message

Hi all. I'm looking to replace the old SOA (some other awning) on the 26' Edgemonte and I need a measurement for the roller tube length of a Zip Dee. I've seen some variation in the interlocking aluminum casing lengths, showing up as differences in the amount of exposed roller tube coverage, so I'm looking for the length of the actual roller tube and not the aluminum casing,

Anyone out there near their GMC and have a few minutes to spare to take a measurement for me? It would be a big help.

Thanks

Richard

Why no just call ZipDee? They are very helpful.

Emery,

I had what I thought was a hot lead on a Zip Dee awning from an SOB for small money. I was hoping to get an answer quickly before someone else snapped it up, and it was a Sunday so neither Zip Dee or JimK could help. Upshot, was too short anyway.

Jim,

Call me old fashioned, but I would feel guilty asking you or your guys to go measure an awning so I could buy a used Zip Dee from someone else.

I know you're always willing to help, and I appreciate that.
