Protect your RV slide-out from debris and keep moisture out of your siding with this slide-topper awning. Prevents water damage and mildew. Made for slide-outs that measure up to 10'1" from edge to edge. Includes all necessary components.
Features:
Specs:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Protect your RV slide-out from debris and keep moisture out of your siding with this slide-topper awning. Prevents water damage and mildew. Made for slide-outs that measure up to 10'1" from edge to edge. Includes all necessary components.This Solera slide out awning is well made and a good design making for a fairly simple and straightforward installation. Pretty much can install the unit with one person up to the point of slide the awning into the awning rail. The one issue I had, hence took one star away, was not enough awning rail screws were sent, I was short 11 screws, only sent 20. The instruction said to put a screw in very hole of the awning rail to camper attachment. So I drilled all the holes for that connection and then was short 11 screws to fill all the holes.
This was a great addition to our Imagine 2600RL. It was relatively easy to instal with the help of one more person and the YouTube instructional video. Well worth it!
It's been a year since we've installed our Solera RV Slide-Out Awning. The product is excellent and works exactly to its specification. And I can't say enough about our Representative, William B, who assisted us with this order. We were unsure of the part to order. William was very knowledgeable, professional and quick to respond to all our questions. Thank you. Your company will be the first I reach out to the next time I'm in need of a part for our RV.

Still working and in excellent condition.
Install was by the book. It took two people but was easy.
Love my solera slider topper. Keeps the slider clean and dry and the rubber gasket soft like new. After a year parked outside in the Florida sun it's still looking great!

Still looks like new!. Works wonders protecting the slide out seal, and keeping the elements and debris out my slide out.
Excellent quality. Support to assist with proper size was awesome. Easy installation. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Always a pleasure working with etrailer
Received quickly and in decent shape though the tube ends it was shipped in were damaged. The contents were all there, thankfully and an initial inspection seems to show no damage.
One thing to note: the newer awnings have the newer bracket types included that are preinstalled as “awning prep” that some RV companies like Forest River are providing on their campers, so there is no need to order the special bracket kit. This info should be added to the advertisement.
This was the first installation for me so I took time on the install and used the factory roof edge rail to attach the topper instead of one already in place or using the provided rail. This gained me about a half inch more height for better drainage.
Works well. A little more difficult to install than I thought but doable. I’m 73 years old so that might have been a factor. lol

The slide out awning is still working like a charm. Stayed tight, does not bellow in the wind when traveling nor when extended. Lasting nicely.
