How are the poles attached to an awning?
When you roll the awning up, the support poles hang and are secured to the arms. There is nothing to stow/store between uses. When deployed, the support poles attach to the end of the awning and extend to the ground. There are multiple holes for adjusting the pitch of the awning to support water runoff.
Why are power awnings not supposed to drop?
He says that it wasn’t quite an invention because manual awnings have had the same concept for years- strong legs that connect the awning to the ground. The nice part of this is that it protects the awning arms both ways- they don’t lift because you strap the poles to the ground; and they don’t drop because the poles are there for support.
Who is the guy who makes the awning poles?
When OldCoot stopped shipping them Ron (aka TURBS on the forum) started making the poles and brackets. You can contact Ron through Forest River Forums. One really nice thing about Ron’s awning poles is that he works with a powder coater to make them white or black.
How do you mount a power awning on an RV?
You install 2 brackets on each awning arm and mount the poles to them. When you roll the awning up, the support poles hang and are secured to the arms. There is nothing to stow/store between uses.
