With an extensive range of caravan awnings and accessories from brands such as Fiamma, Carefree and Aussie Traveller. Whatever you need, we have it - with accessories including brackets and clips to caravan awnings for sale and privacy screens. Browse the selection below.
These easy to use awnings can be operated by a single person and allow you to double your living space in under a minute to make the most of the outdoors. Fully enclosed in a solid case when stowed and with no hardware running down the side of the vehicle these are great for use on Campervans, Motorhomes or any vehicle with a vertically curved wall. From shade screens & sidewalls to a complete annex solution, Fiamma's incorporated design offers a range of options & accessories to customize your outdoor area.
Set Up
A detachable winder is used to extend the awning. Winding allows the front face of the sturdy case to extend horizontally, like a verandah - pulling the fabric out as it goes. When extended, you then unclip the telescopic legs from within the front face, and they are either pegged to the ground or clipped to base of your RV with the included Lower Leg Brackets.
All awnings come complete with the Standard Bracket Kit which allows the awning to be attached to a vertical face on a Caravan/Motorhome/Gooseneck etc. If the awning is being attached to a curved surface or roof rack you will need to purchase a separate bracket kit OR make a mounting that will accept the Standard Brackets. See section on BRACKETS for options.

Fiamma offer a range of Anti Flap solution; Straight and Curved Roof Rafters provide extra tension to the canopy, eliminating water pooling and noisy flapping caused by wind.
The Fast Clip system provides the greatest strength and enables full side walls to be added to form a complete enclosed area (this is included in all Privacy Room Kits)

INSTALLATION
Rollout awnings like Carefree or Dometic require two seperate components to make a complete unit.
1) Awning fabric on the roller - Available in a large range of sizes and colours, however due to transport issue we only supply up to 16ft.
2) Hardware kit - This is the legs and arms that attach to your van. You will need to select the size which will suit your wall style. ie Full height, pop-top or curved.
Measure Correctly -You MUST measure awning length from centreline of legs (See Image) mistakes are costly If this is replacing an existing awning, and you have annex walls, it is essential you measure the extension.
Setup - To set up awning you simply unlock the travel lock and pull the spring loaded awning roller out using the strap. You then extend the legs to achieve your desired roof height, then extend the roof braces to hold the fabric taut. The awning can be used with the legs attached to the base of the RV or they can be released and pegged to the ground.
Not Included:
Hardware Kit. Select a Pop-Top or Caravan Arm/leg and bracket kit separately.
Rope Track - Is NOT available from Caravans Plus but is required for new installations.

The Carefree BT-12 Motion Switch is an optional attachment for the Altitude Awning range that is used to detect unwanted motions that may potentially damage your awning, like strong winds. If it detects anything too extreme it will tell the awning to promptly get out of harm's way by automatically retracting - a very helpful bit of insurance!
Important:
If you are using support poles, rafters, or other awning attachments, this could obviously prove a problem if the awning was to start retracting while they were attached. As such, if any additional hardware is used, the Master On/Off switch should be switched OFF once the correct angle and length is set and additional hardware is added.
This handy unit allows you to use Bluetooth to control all parts of your awning right from your hand. It also includes a traditional master Combination Switch just in case your phone isn't available or out of battery!
Features:
- Opening and closing the awning
- Turning your LED light bar on and off
- Adjusting the brightness of your LED light bar
- Position the angle of the LED by adjusting the awning
- Using the memory setting to get the exact extension every time
- Do all of this while you're sitting down

Have you got a burning question about your caravan awning? See if it's already been answered in our FAQs below.
A caravan awning is an extendable cover attached to the side of a caravan, creating extra outdoor space that's sheltered from the elements. Awnings come in various types, including full awnings, which offer a large additional area, and porch awnings, which cover a smaller space for quick setups.
Size and Fit: Ensure it fits your caravan’s dimensions. Measure your caravan accurately to match the awning size.
Material: Look for durable, weather-resistant fabrics.
Ease of Setup: Consider how easy it is to erect and dismantle.
Weight: Lighter awnings are easier to transport and set up.
Features: Check for additional features like removable sides, mesh panels for ventilation, and included accessories.
Yes, it is very important for the awning to fit your caravan properly to ensure it provides adequate shelter and remains secure in all weather conditions. Each caravan model may have specific awning sizes recommended by the manufacturer.
While many caravan awnings come with water-resistant materials, over time, the waterproofing can diminish. It's a good practice to re-waterproof your awning periodically to maintain its resistance to rain and prevent leaks.
The best fabric often depends on your specific needs:
Polyester is lightweight and dries quickly but may not be as durable as other materials.
Acrylic is more durable and breathable, making it suitable for long-term use.
PVC is highly waterproof and durable but can be heavy and less breathable.
The lifespan of awning fabric can vary widely based on material, usage, and maintenance. High-quality fabric well-maintained can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years. Regular cleaning and proper storage can extend the life of your awning fabric.
There is no universal maximum wind speed for caravan awnings, as resistance can vary based on the awning's design, material, and how well it's secured. It's advisable to retract or securely tie down your awning in high winds to prevent damage. Manufacturers may provide specific guidance on wind resistance for their products.
To enhance the strength and stability of your caravan awning, consider the following tips:
Use storm straps: These help anchor the awning more securely to the ground.
Invest in a quality frame: Metal frames tend to offer more stability than fiberglass.
Add support poles: Extra poles can reinforce the structure.
Secure pegging points: Ensure all pegging points are properly used and consider using screw-in pegs for harder ground.
Utilize tie-down kits: These can help secure the awning in windy conditions.
Remember, the key to maximizing the enjoyment and lifespan of your caravan awning is choosing the right one for your needs, proper maintenance, and being mindful of weather conditions.
With an extensive range of caravan awnings from leading brands like Global, Coast, and Carefree, we've got something for everyone. Explore our selection above and find the perfect awning for your caravan.
