The Challenge

Caravan and motorhome owners often struggle when erecting their awnings and tightening the awning poles resulting in frustration, sagging fabric and an unstable awning.

You've tried tightening the frame by hand and have found it difficult to get the required tautness. You've probably enlisted a helper to provide a 'Third hand' to tighten the pole fitting. You may struggle with mobility or strength problems.

It can be difficult to exert sufficient force on the poles by hand, particularly overhead at arms length, and then tighten the pole fitting whilst keeping the poles apart. Often this means standing on something to reach better, creating the potential for poles being dislodged and causing caravan sidewall damage or even personal injury.

Successful, stress-free awning erection needs a method of extending the awning poles a little at a time, and holding them in place whilst the fitting is tightened.

That's why we made the Awning Companion.

The Awning Companion is a simple tool that helps one person to extend and tighten the awning poles with minimum effort. The Awning Companion is clamped in place on either side of the pole fitting, squeezing the trigger extends the poles and holds them apart whilst you tighten the pole fitting. As simple as 1-2-3.
