If you plan on investing in a caravan or camper trailer, at some point you’ll need to learn a little bit about awnings. Whether you want to replace a damaged awning, or upgrade to something bigger, that’s easier to put up and down, there are a few different types on the market.
Caravan awnings expand your living space, providing you with a comfortable outdoor space with sun, wind and rain protection. There are now a large choice of styles and materials, form the simplest rollout awning that provides sun protection, to motorised versions, and add-on annexes that provide wind and rain protection and privacy, all at the same time.

A roll out awning is one of the most popular types of awnings found on caravans. Roll out awnings have two separate components: the awning material, and the hardware that is attached on either side. The hardware comprises the adjustable support arms. Putting up the awning involves unclipping the hardware to pull out the awning, and securing the arms in place, so the awning is tensioned correctly and at the right height. A typical roll out awning, the Carefree Fiesta is a favourite for caravans, pop tops and motorhomes.
Some roll out awnings have an optional electric motor to make the process a little more user friendly. For example the Carefree 12v Freedom comes with a 12 volt powered automatic extend and retract button, making it convenient to open and close the awning from the inside of the van. The arms do still need to be manually positioned.
A bag awning is a manual roll-out awning that is particularly suited for small sized caravans and camper trailers and is very affordable price. Bag awnings are attached with a sail track, which can be removed between uses.

Wind out awnings are generally a lot easier for just one person to install. For example the Fiamma F45, which is a box awning, is operated with a detachable winder. Start by winding out the awning till it’s about a third of its full extension. The legs are housed at the front face of the awning and simply drop down for positioning. Once the legs are in place, wind out the remaining of the awning.
Box awnings are very popular and are often installed on cars, 4X4s and campervans. This is because they have a large choice of mounting brackets, which allow them to be mounted on vehicles which have a curved profile. Box awnings are mounted on the roof or the side of the vehicle.
If you are doing a DIY awning installation, it’s important to make sure you have the right sized awning for your caravan or camper trailer. Take the time to ensure that there are no obstructions that prevent the awning from being extended and retracted easily.

To provide you with extra privacy when you’re travelling, annexe walls can be attached to an awning. For annexe walls to be added, an awning must be fully extended with the arms securely positioned in a vertical position (known as the patio position) on the ground. A privacy screen can be attached by sliding the screen along the rope track.
Awnings provide protection from the sun as well as the wind and the rain. Originally made from canvas that blocks 100% of the sun, awnings now come in a range of high performing fabrics, making them more lightweight and easier to handle. The advantage of PVC and acrylic fabric is that it doesn’t rot, however for maximum sun protection and to cool your caravan, canvas provides the best protection.
