Question:

I am fitting a 144 inch slide out flange width with one of these covers. The box itself is 137.5 inches. With 5 inch flanges. would the 12 foot or the 13 foot cover be a better choice. I can see where the mounting hardware may be the determining factor.

If you are trying to determine if a 12 foot or 13 foot awning would be a better fit for a 144 inch span then I recommend going with the Solera 12.5 foot Slider # LCV000177334. This option has a box width range of 140 inches to 145-3/4 inches.

Since your box is 137.5 inches, if your flanges combined add an additional 5 inches then you will want to go with the 12 foot option # LCV000168328 since it is designed to fit box width ranges from 134 inches - 139-3/4 inches with 2-1/2 inch flanges.

However, if both flanges are 5 inches each, with a combined 10 inches of added width, then you will want to use the 13 foot option # LCV000165061 to compensate for the larger flanges.
