With an extensive range of caravan awnings and accessories from brands such as Fiamma, Carefree and Aussie Traveller.

Once you roll up your awning, the pivoting head receives the roller & support it, eliminating weight stress & potential bowing in the centre of your awning roller. The awning supports will not damage the awning fabric. Recommended for use on flat walls (of RV's) & for awning widths of 16ft or greater.
Features:
- Cradle head to support awnings with roll bars
- Stabiliz'r Grip head to allow securing to a box awning
- Poles feature crank knobs to secure the pole to the adjusted height
- Comes with stakes and straps to secure the poles to the ground and awning.
- Designed for quick set up, under 5 minutes!
Important!
When using this kit with Altitude awnings, or any powered awning, ensure that the awning's power is switched OFF prior to installation! This prevents any sensors the awning has from activating and causing it to retract. If you need to adjust the awning pitch after set up, loosen the pole's straps and lower before adjusting.
Carefree's new Straight Rafter is a straight rafter designed to add rigidity and further support to your awning. Installing the Straight Rafter is simple and easy.

The RV wall bracket needs to be drilled in against the wall side to fit.
The Straight Rafter also includes an industry first utility slot to quickly hang side blockers, side panels or other awning accessories.
Note: Suit Carefree, A&E, Dometic and many other awnings. NOT suitable for Fiamma Awnings.

The Carefree rafter also features 2 different methods of attaching to the roller tube, so you can choose which best suits you.
The first method uses the standard pin which slots into a hole which you must drill into your awning barrel.
For those who don't want to drill into their awning barrel there is also an included mounting cradle which can be used to secure the rafter instead.
This rafter has a larger curve than most standard curved rafters which will provide greater tension and awning stability but could lead to fabric stretching if used for prolonged periods.

Using the latest technologies Fiamma have taken all the great features of the earlier models (F45 Ti, F45 i & F45Plus) and made them even better. 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.

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.

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.
