Solera RV Slide Topper Awning

How to Measure for an RV Slide-Out Awning

how to measure for an rv slide-out awning

To ensure you get the correct size awning for your slide-out, measure from outer edge to outer edge of the trim. You will need 7" of clearance on both sides of the slide-out for the awning. If you don't have 7" clearance on both sides, go down to the next size; this will still give your slide-out plenty of coverage.


If there are two slide-outs next to each other, you will need a total of 14" of clearance between them for them both to have a slide-out awning. Again, you can go down a size if you are low on space.


Protect Your RV Slide-Out

Without a slide-topper, the roof of your slide-out room is continually exposed and can accumulate leaves and bugs and different types of debris. That debris can build up along the rubber strip at the top of your box, preventing a firm seal when your slide-out is retracted. Rain water can then get in and pool on the top of your slide-out. If you don't clear the water off each time it rains, mold can begin to form. And when your slide-out is pulled in, that mold gets inside your RV.


Solera RV Slide Topper Awning

The Solera RV slide-out awning alleviates those problems by serving as a protective covering over the top of your RV's slide-out. Not only does it prevent debris from collecting on the roof of your slide-out, but it keeps water from pooling and potentially causing damage down the road. Because it mounts directly to the front of the slide box, the slide-out awning is able to automatically extend and retract every time the slide-out room is extended or retracted.


Durable Vinyl Fabric

Solera RV slide out awning fabric

The durable awning fabric holds up to the rigors of the outdoors. It's made of premium 13.5-oz vinyl, which is an upgrade over the 10-oz fabric used in many awnings. This fabric also features heat-welded seams to prevent leaks. And it is made to withstand cold temperatures down to -25 degrees Fahrenheit, so it won't crack or degrade during the winter.


Simple Installation

Use the self-tapping screws to secure the included access plate to the side of your slide-out, positioning the plate at the bottom of the T-molding. The two access brackets slide easily onto the access plate's track. The rods that are located at each end of the roller tube, which comes with the awning fabric already mounted, slide through the hole in the two access brackets.


The included awning rail is used to anchor the other side of the fabric to your RV. This rail can be mounted up to 5" above the trim on top of your slide box.


Note: It's important that the slide-topper sits at as steep an angle as possible so that any rainwater will drain immediately. Any water that sits in the awning can stretch out the fabric permanently and warp it out of shape.

  • How Many Times to Wind Solera Slide Topper for Proper Tension
    Put the pin back in and wind it 12-16 times rolling it towards the camper to put the correct tension in the slide topper # LCV000163285 before installing it. This will give you the correct amount of tension for extending and retracting the awning.

  • How to Add Tension to Solera Slide-Topper
    When installing/adjusting the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000163285 tension is applied by rotating the awning roller 14 times. This should apply the needed spring tension so that the fabric doesn't billow in the wind or leave enough slack that it sags when collecting some rain water. Also make sure that you have at least a slight decline from the awning rail to the end of the fabric so that water can flow off the awning.

  • How Much Does a Slide Topper Typically Hang Over a Slide Out
    I attached a picture that shows about how much a slide topper typically hangs over a slide out when installed for you to compare to what you have. If you can get me the width of your slide out including the distance from outside of flange to the outside of the other flange I can help you pick out what you'd need.

  • Correct Solera RV Slide-Out Awning Measurements
    Hello, sorry for any confusion. For determining the proper size Solera Slider your project requires you need to measure the total width of your slide room from the outside including the flange then add a minimum of 5" (2-1/2" each for the left/right side overhang). Yes you can have greater than 2-1/2" overhang if you want, such as the 3" stated, it is just suggested that you do not go any less in width. For the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning - 6'7" Wide - 48" Projection - White, # LCV000163285,...

  • Recommended Slide-Topper for R-Pod with Box Width of 6-1/2 Feet
    When determining the correct Slide-Topper to install on your 178 R-Pod, you will just want to be sure you are measuring the box width on the slide-out. Box width is measured on the outside font of box, including the flange. If you have a box width of 6-1/2 feet (78 inches), you will want the Solera 7' Slider (Slide-Topper) # LCV000168105. This 7 foot Solera Slider works perfectly with box width ranges of 74 to 79-3/4 inches. This particular model is black with black hardware, but it is...

    To add more tensions to your slide topper, like part # LCV000163285, you'll need to remove the slide topper from your brackets and reroll the awning the 14 times the installation instructions call for. Also be sure your end caps are properly installed so the tension doesn't slip during operation.

  • How to Loosen Tension on Lippert Slide-Out Awning
    When removing tension from a Lippert Slide-Out Awning like part # LCV000163285 you will need to remove the pin and then spin it counterclockwise for the left-hand side and clockwise for the right-hand side. Do that until you have the desired tension and you're good to go! If you jump to the 7:15 minute mark on the linked video you can see our team adding tension to a slide out awning.

  • Adding Tension To The Tension Springs On A Solera Slide Topper Awning
    If the fabric on your Solera RV Slide-Out Awning - 6'7" Wide - 48" Projection - White # LCV000163285 is laying loose with no tension you've most likely lost the required amount of tension on your tension springs. You'll want to remove the slide topper from the brackets and reroll the awning roller 14 times to add enough tension to the springs. You'll also want to ensure your end caps are properly secured to keep the tension on your springs.

  • Recommended Solera Slide-Topper for 73-3/4 Inch Box Width
    For your slide-out box width that measures 73-3/4 inches I recommend going with the Solera Slide-Topper # LCV000168105 in Black or # LCV000163285 for White. As you probably discovered your slide-out width kind of falls in between sizes. When this happens I recommend going with the larger of the two options to ensure your entire slide-out is covered when extended. The fabric on this assembly measures 79 inches wide so it's still only going to overhang the slide-out by about 2-1/5 inches...

  • Will Hardware Included With Solera RV Slide-Out Awning Protrude Through Trailer Wall
    There are two different length screws used to drill into your trailer when installing the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000163285. The screws used to secure the awning rail to the trailer are 1" long, and the screws used to install the bracket to the slide out are 1 1/4" long.

  • Understanding Slide Out Awning Measurements to Choose Correct Replacement
    Fortunately, you do not have to consider the projection length. All Solera Slider fabric produced before August 2014 allows for a 58 inch projection and all fabric produced after that date, which is what we carry, allows for a 48 inch projection. This is standard for slide-outs, so you do not need to measure how far it extends out. We offer both the RV Slide-Out Awnings as well as the Replacement Slide Topper Fabric. You do not need to add 2-1/2 inches when shopping for an RV Slide-Out...

  • Proper Solera Slide Topper Tension Adjustment
    According to Solara (Lippert), the correct number of turns to set the proper tension of their slide toppers like # LCV000163285 is between 12 to 16 turns, so I'd consider 14 to be a pretty good happy medium.

  • Can Solera Slide Out Awnings Be Mounted To RV's With Aluminum Siding
    Yes, the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000163285 is capable of being mounted to aluminum sided trailers.

  • Adding Tension To Solera Slide Out Toppers
    Thanks for the great question. Not knowing how far either side has slipped I would remove all tension for the arm and start over at zero tension. To add tension to your Solera RV Slide-Out Awning - 6'7" Wide - 48" Projection - White # LCV000163285 you need to detach the arm from the extension rod. Then spin the torsion arm 14 times. Clockwise for the idler head. Counter clockwise for the drive head. I will link a couple install guides to help you reconnect everything. You can jump to...

  • What Color Slide-out Topper or Awning Will Attract Heat the Most
    If you're in an area where the sun is constantly beating down, using a white slideout topper like the Solera # LCV000163285 as opposed to a black one like the # LCV000168105 is definitely the way to go. Black tends to make things hotter, so if your goal is try to keep the awning fabric from attracting heat and potentially damaging the slideout under it, white is the way to go. I've also linked our entire selection of white slideout toppers in case you need a different size.

  • Slide Out Topper Recommendations That Measure 154" And 83"
    If you've measured your slide out box plus the flange on either side and got 154" and 83", then you can use the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000163300 for your 154" slide outs, and # LCV000163287 for your 83" slide out. If you do not have at least 7" on either side, then you'll need to order the next size down; # LCV000163299 for your 154" slide outs, and # LCV000163285 for your 83"slide out.
