How to set up a travel awning?

  1. Pull the awning into the piping rail.
  2. Sort the poles.
  3. Insert the central pole into the holes provided in the awning roof and erect it.
  4. Attach the roof pole to the caravan and connect the central roof pole to the central pitching pole of your caravan.
  5. Connect the left and the right pitching pole to the gable pole on the central foot and then to the roof poles hooked to the sides.
  6. Set up the canopy by aligning the gable and tensioning the roof poles.
  7. Pull in the side walls and close them with zips.
  8. Do the same with the front walls.
  9. Secure your new living room with pegs. And you’re done! Your holiday can begin.

Do you want to save time when setting up your awning? Then mark the poles in advance with insulating tape in different colours. That way, you’ll quickly know which poles fit together and you’ll be in a good mood afterwards.


Privacy or an extra good view?

Are you worried about prying eyes? Most awnings have a solution for that, too. Windows with opaque flaps. These flaps reliably protect you from the glances of your neighbours. That way, you can enjoy your privacy even when you’re on holiday with your loved ones. For campers looking for that certain something, we recommend models with curtains. The curtains match your awning and make your caravan extra cosy. Camping has never been more fun! Don’t you agree?

Seasonal awnings – the practical chill-out area for warm regions

Are you a summer camper who also wants a spacious, covered veranda? Then we have just the thing for you – a seasonal awning. With this model with removable front and side walls, you’ll have a large loggia that is perfect for hot summer days. You can remove the side walls whenever you feel like it, so that you can sit back and relax in your well-tempered extra room. You’ll see … with this awning, you’ll have a relaxed holiday ahead of you.

Shh! We’ll let you in on something else. If the temperature outside feels tropical, you can simply use this helper as a practical sun canopy. How do you do that? Just remove the side walls to turn your awning into a clever canvas awning for your mobile home.


What you should look out for when buying a travel awning?

It all depends on the material

You want an awning that can withstand heavy rain and strong sunlight? Then you have to make sure that the material is weather- and tearproof. When it comes to that, you can hardly go wrong with double-coated polyester. It also protects you from UV rays, for example.

Of course, your helper should also be protected against moisture and bacteria. Optimal protection is provided by ventilation openings on the gable – condensation doesn’t stand a chance. Pretty clever, isn’t it?

Light as a feather or extra robust – there are poles suitable for everyone

Do you want a lightweight awning? Then we recommend getting one with aluminium poles. They can be easily transported from A to B.

If you want more stability, robust steel poles are an absolute must. They can withstand a lot.

Are you into stability and convenience? Then inflatable awnings are ideal for you. You can inflate the air chambers in no time at all with an air pump to create a stable living room in front of your caravan.

Extra protection thanks to distance to the ground – the mud flap

Every travel awning is equipped with a mud flap. But the distance from the lower edge of the fabric to the ground varies from caravan to caravan and often depends on the ground conditions. To protect you from moisture and crawling insects, the mud flap should be at least high enough that you can easily tension the guy ropes. The rest then lies on the ground and serves as a base for the groundsheet or carpet. That way, nothing stands in the way of a relaxed holiday.


 

Technical terms simply explained

What is a piping rail?

You can use a piping rail to attach your awning to your vehicle, for example. Are you wondering what a piping is? For the awning fabric to be attached to the vehicle, there needs to be a connection between the rail and the fabric. This connection is the piping. It reinforces the edge of the awning fabric. The piping is round and runs out flat towards the fabric. This means that the piping can be easily pulled into the piping rail on the vehicle.


What are ventilation openings?

Ventilation openings keep condensation to a minimum. They are usually located at the back or sides of tunnel tents and are kept closed with Velcro. To ventilate the tent, you can simply open them manually.


What is a panorama window?

A panorama window is a particularly large window. If you have one of these windows, you will have plenty of daylight in your tent and can enjoy a great view at the same time.


What is polyester?

Polyester is an easy-to-clean synthetic fibre material. It is robust, light and weatherproof and is therefore often used for tents.


What are pegs?

Pegs are elongated, pointy anchoring pins that are, for example, used to fasten a tent to the ground. Pegs are available in various designs and materials.
