Stay Protected with Awnings and Accessories for Your Autumn Adventures

As the days grow shorter and the weather cools, it’s the perfect time to embrace the cosy side of camping, caravanning, and motorhome life. While the golden leaves and crisp air make for a stunning backdrop, autumn can also bring its fair share of rain, chill, and unexpected elements. Enter: the trusty awning and its host of accessories! With the right setup, you can extend your living space, stay dry, and create a snug outdoor home—no matter what the season throws your way.

Choosing the right awning for you

Air Awnings

Air awnings, also known as inflatable awnings, are built with inflatable beams instead of traditional metal or fibreglass poles. They are easy to set up, simply needing a pump to inflate the air tubes!

 

Benefits:

Quick and Easy Setup: Perfect for those who want to spend less time setting up and more time relaxing. Just pump it up, and you’re good to go!

Lightweight and Compact: Without metal poles, air awnings are generally lighter and easier to store.

Poled Awnings

Poled awnings are ideal if you’re looking for a wider range of styles and don’t mind spending a bit more time during the setup process.They come in various sizes and types, from compact porch awnings to full-sized setups.

 

Benefits:

Stable and Customisable: Poled awnings provide a very solid structure and come in various styles and configurations, giving you flexibility in terms of size and layout.

Better in Heavy Winds: If securely pegged and set up correctly, poled awnings tend to hold up well in stronger winds, making them ideal for harsher weather.

Drive Away Awnings

Driveaway awnings are unique in that they attach to the side of your vehicle but are not fixed, meaning you can easily detach them, drive away for the day, and return without dismantling your camp setup.

 

Benefits:

Flexibility: Ideal for motorhomes and campervans, these awnings let you set up camp and drive away for day trips while leaving the awning standing.

Added Space: They create an excellent extra room that’s easy to access but doesn’t restrict vehicle mobility.

How to protect your awning and keep it clean

Autumn showers can be unpredictable, so after a thorough cleaning, apply a waterproof protector like Fabsil. This will shield your awning from rain, helping it dry faster and stay mildew-free.

Storing your awning

Avoid damp storage – Make sure your awning is completely dry before packing it up. Storing a damp awning is a recipe for mould and mildew, which can weaken the fabric.

Check zips and seams – Cooler weather can make materials stiff, so keep your awning in top shape by lubricating zips and checking seams regularly. A little preventative care now saves you hassle down the line.

Store in a cool, dry place  Avoid damp storage areas, like basements or garages. A dry, well-ventilated space is ideal.

 

How often should I clean and waterproof my awning?

Ideally, give it a thorough clean with an awning cleaner and waterproof treatment at the end of each camping season or when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface. For frequent campers, a mid-season refresh is also a good idea!

An awning adds a perfect blend of comfort and shelter, creating a cosy spot to relax, enjoy a warm drink, or keep your gear dry and organised. To make the most of your awning, remember to give it a little care along the way. Whether you’re nestled by a forest or parked by the coast, your awning can become a little oasis that allows you to fully embrace the beauty of the season. So, pack your favourite cold-weather gear, set up that welcoming outdoor space, and head out to capture all the autumn adventures waiting just around the bend.
