Hi all

we just bought a new (to us) bradcot awning with easy up alloy poles. It went up with ease as promised  but unfortunately went over the van with the same ease.

Now I know to use threaded pegs in some places, I still have the problem of replacing some broken and bent poles.

any one got any ideas or places to look as the local caravan centre to us has given me 3 DIFFERENT things to do. I gladly did the first 2 but lost the will to live after being told to bring in the paperwork which was no use the 1st or 2nd time. Please any help or contact info would be very much appreciated.

Big thanks

 log on to bradcot awnings site,give their sales people a call,they will help enormously,very good service,tell them age of awning and type/model etc.

 info on prices and supply etc,problem sorted

you can buy a new set of steel poles much better and stronger

we have a bradcot awning it is very nice but we have had problems with the alloy poles bradcot are helpful and will sell you new or extra poles but we have been thinking of just buying a new set. i think some one on here said that you dont have to buy bradcot if you dont want just make sure you buy poles for the correct size awning. i think NR or doreema are ok.

Thank you very much I will give the suggestions a try

many thanks again Mark

£200 for a new set from Bradcot.

Ouch.......

Have you tried Ebay?

All done and dusted now thank you all very much. Went to caravan shop in gloucester and they were ace. Had some odd poles outside and there was a left corner set and a right corner set. Also a complete set. I took the left corner set and was very happy to £5 for it.So happy I bought £15 worth of pegs, had a good chat and as the £5 was for a beer tin I gave another £5 and took the right corner set just in case.It was the same group as the one in Cheltenham ( which I didnt know at time) but with one main difference THE STAFF DIDNT SSHHHH ME they listened and were a very good bunch. I will be travelling that bit further to get the help I need in future.

Thanks again everyone

Mark
