Beyond the Basics: Adding an awning to your RV or camper

Embarking on the RV lifestyle is an exciting, freeing experience. You’re able to explore the great outdoors and new destinations with a level of comfort that simply can’t be found in a tent. But to ensure you receive the most benefit from your RV, investing in additional features such as an awning is key.

Benefits of adding an Awning to an RV

The purpose of an RV awning is to provide shade and protection from the elements. Awnings reduce the amount of heat that enters your RV, thus allowing you to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter. They also protect your RV from rain, wind, and snow as well as providing additional living space outside. It also provides more privacy, so that you don't have to worry about people looking into your RV while you're enjoying a relaxing evening outside.

In terms of cost, adding an awning to an RV can be quite affordable, depending on the type of awning you choose and who installs it for you. In general, though, compared to other camping accessories such as outdoor furniture or solar panels, RV awnings tend to be relatively inexpensive.

Overall, adding an awning is a practical decision as it increases the comfort and versatility of your RV while also helping to protect it from damage caused by exposure to the elements.

How do I attach an awning to a camper?

Installing your own awning is not too hard, but you'll need the right tools and supplies for the job. Here’s a quick look at what you’ll need to do.

· Gather the necessary tools and supplies. You'll need mounting screws, paint or sealant, roof seal tape, a drill and bit, a ladder, and chalk line.

· Mark where you want to install the awning with a chalk line. Make sure that it's an even distance away from all sides of your camper/RV.

· Drill pilot holes in the top of your RV for the mounting screws. Be sure to use the proper size of drill bit for the screws you're using and be careful not to damage any wiring or components underneath!

· Attach the awning rail/bracket to your RV top with self-tapping screws provided by manufacturer instructions. Also use sealant on these screws to help ensure they don't develop rust over time due to exposure to rainwater.

· Once everything is secured, attach your fabric cover onto the mounting bracket with carabiners or clips (again based on manufacturer instructions). And there you have it—you've fully installed your own RV/camper awning.
