What types of awnings can I get for my RV?

You’ve got a few great options! There are patio awnings for shade and shelter outside, slide-out awnings (or slide toppers) to protect your slide-outs from water and debris, and window awnings to keep the interior cooler by blocking the sun. It just depends on what you need most.

How do I measure for a new awning?

For patio awnings, just measure from the center of one awning arm to the center of the other. For slide-out awnings, measure the full width of the slide-out, including the flange, and then add about 5 inches for coverage. Get it measured right, and you’re good to go!

Can I just replace the fabric or do I need a whole new awning?

If your hardware is still in good shape, you can totally just replace the fabric. It’s a great way to save some money and refresh the look of your RV. Just make sure you get the right size and material for your existing setup.

Should I choose a motorized or manual awning?

It depends on how much convenience matters to you. Motorized awnings are super easy—you just press a button to extend or retract them. Manual awnings are still great, but they take a little more effort. If you already have a manual one, some can be upgraded with a motor kit if you want to make the switch.

How do I install an awning on my RV?

Installing an awning can seem tricky, but it’s totally doable if you take your time. Here’s how it usually goes:
  • Measure and Prep: First, measure your RV and make sure the awning will fit in the space you’ve got. Mark where the mounting brackets will go.
  • Install the Mounting Brackets: Attach the brackets securely to your RV’s wall using bolts. Make sure they’re level and evenly spaced.
  • Attach the Awning: With help (you’ll need an extra set of hands), lift the awning into place and secure it to the brackets.
  • Test the Setup: Extend and retract the awning a few times to ensure it works smoothly. Adjust anything that’s off before tightening everything down.

How do I keep my RV awning in good shape?

Cleaning it regularly is key! Use mild soap and water to remove dirt, and always let it dry completely before rolling it up to avoid mold or mildew. Check the fabric and hardware for any damage and fix it right away to keep it looking and working great.
