Ready to look to pick your awning?
Awnings will fit any vehicle, not just a 4×4.
If you have purchased a side awning or you want to know more about using it then you’re in the right place. We have put together a page of tips and tricks on how to use your side awning like a pro.
A side car awning is quite a simple piece of equipment but can be a little tricky the first time you set it up. To help you avoid any trouble setting up your awning we have created a video of how to set up your side awning like an expert. In this video, we will show you how to set up an awning in under 2 mins, tips and tricks, plus general information about using your awning. If setting up your awning in windy conditions, remember to peg it down as soon as possible or get help setting up to avoid damaging your awning.
It’s time to leave and you need to pack away your awning. The best bit of advice for packing away any of your camping equipment is to take your time and make sure it’s correctly packed away. This means it will be far easier to set up and use when you are setting up on your next adventure. We have created a video to show how to pack down your side awning quickly and efficiently. If your awning bag is hard to zip-up then you need to repack and reroll to make sure everything is correctly stored.
You’ve got questions, we got the answers. If you can’t find the specific answer you’re looking for then contact us at support@tentandtrail.com and we will be happy to talk through any questions you may have.
Yes. All our awnings come with 100% waterproof heavy-duty 420D Polyester Oxford canvas. This canvas is UV and mould-resistant, making your awning look good and last longer in any kind of weather.
Other materials used on the awning are aluminium for the frame and legs with stainless steel fixings, so no need to worry about rust.
Yes, but it is important to position your awning with a run-off to the side of the awning canopy. This is achieved by lowering one of the front legs lower than the other which will prevent heavy rainfall from pooling on the canvas. In extreme weather situations, we recommend taking down your awning and packing it away to prevent damage.
Our awnings come equipped with full vehicle fitting kits (bolts, brackets, even tools) and detailed instructions. All our fixings are made from premium stainless steel 304-grade metal. This is to prevent corrosion/rust and provide added strength. For more information and pictures see our setup and install guide for attaching a side awning to your car.
