Directions were ok. No where in description or directions does it tell you it is to be mounted on brick or masonry wall but at the very end of directions they are for masonry mounting. We mounted on wood wall. had to but heavy duty lag screws and mounted to studs. Very solid but will not stand up to wind speed rated for. We keep it rolled up when not in use .  Will take two to mount. Doesn't say anything about ensuring it is level but you should ensure brackets are level when installing.  Took some work but better than paying thousands to have it done.
