Sizing your Awning

Hi, I’m Eileen from the Technical Team at the Club.

We often get asked about awnings and the sizing of them which to a lot of people is confusing. Manufacturers give the sizes as for example 10.20m  but what does this mean?  This measurement is from the ground up, along the top of the caravan and back down to the ground. The picture below demonstrates this.  Length A = full awning. Length B = porch or combi awning.  If choosing a porch or half awning (length B in the diagram), make sure the part that runs vertically down the side of the caravan does not go over the refrigerator vent or window.

Does anyone have any recommendations to members looking to buy an awning?
