I've asked a similar thing before, but installing awnings has taken off
like a rocket.

Up to about 3.5 metres - about 50kg - they are a two man lift. Much
above that, its three. Problem being I can't get a third man in the van
& many jobs are miles away.

So, any thoughts on lifting them - average height 2.5 metres from the
ground?

Current method with the smaller ones is to lift them onto to the top of
two step ladders, then lift into the brackets from there.

I have an angle grinder & WD40.
