Usually a caravan comes with a handy awning size or a measurement guide.

Caravan width with awning.

I was wondering if any current awning owners could advise the merits of using a standard 250 width awning or if a 300 or 350 would provided better outside. A1 the size of awning needed to fit any particular caravan depends on the measurement in centimeters from the ground around the awning rail and back to the ground. But if you don t have any manual nearby that s alright because you can still measure it manually.

In recent years caravan manufacturers have mostly made life a little easier for us and they quote the ground to ground measurement in their brochures or on their web sites.

This will give you your caravan s a measurement which is your caravan full awning size. When buying an awning for your rv or caravan one of the factors that you need to consider is the size.

If your a measurement is 970cm you would select your awning from the 950 975cm range. Are there any problems on pitches when using the larger 300 350 awnings or do most caravan club ccc sites accomodate the larger size awnings. Generally you will find that most caravan awning manufacturers sell theirs in size ranges.
